I have a TV in my 5-year-old son's room. He has video games in there too. But there are rules, and he can't watch or play all the time, in fact, he can't use them very often at all.
But like you said, how many times can I see Shrek? Not as many as Eddie can, that's for sure. So when he gets his 30 minutes of TV, if he wants Shrek, he gets Shrek (and I don't).
Just consider this practice for how you'll deal with your child's indoctrination to the internet and social media. Good practice influencing your child and helping them define healthy boundaries. It's tricky stuff these days, and the TV is just the beginning.
