This paper explores the ethical turn in new and old television formats. From docusoaps to tabloid talk to lifestyle shows, examinations of ways to live are now a major source of content and conflict. Television is now deeply implicated in shaping our ethical sensibilities. This development makes trouble for the logic of tabloid moralism and its obsession with policing the boundaries between right and wrong, for when moralism gives way to ethics the role of television in governing populations becomes much more complex and multifarious. Using the ethical theories of Foucault and Deleuze, the political implications of television's version of ethics are examined.
