minus-squareguyrocket@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 year agoThere are a lot of cultural things to learn from Hollywood, but very little actual academic content comes out of Hollywood. If any. Add public TV to that mix and the academic content level goes WAY up. I don’t think of public TV as Hollywood so I’m unsure if OP is including it. Seems that youtube has much more content that I would call educational. I would go there for an education before Hollywood.
