Cognitive Human's Tolerance to 'The West Wing'

Two secluded rooms with a single chair and television set were constructed. A living, cognitive, generally healthy human (Subject A) was put in one room. A dead body (Subject B) was placed in the other.

Episodes of The West Wing were played continuously for 36 hours. At the end of the time frame, Subject A had committed suicide. Subject B was in the same place in front of the TV.

Conclusion: The West Wing's demographic appeals to dead people so substantially, that the living are inclined to kill themselves.
