Is there any one else here that does not watch TV???

Honestly i just don't have time, occasionally i catch 5 minutes of the news here & there, but it's been months since the last time i actually sat down and watched something.

And i don't even miss it!

although I did watch Walk Hard on channel go last night. Do movies count?

I usually record movies from SBS to watch some other time

I don't watch nearly as much television as most people I know. I don't even know what sitcoms are popular. If I do watch something it's usually on the History Channel, a rerun of a spooky show on Chiller, a true crime show or some cable news.

I love that movie. My friends and I still use that "you don't want no parts of this shit" line pretty regularly.

"no! it's not addictive!"

I nearly didn't watch it! The master thought it would be lame, but it was OK!

who sang all the songs??

I don't know who sings the songs.

But I thought the same, that it would suck beyond belief. Now I probably think it's better than it really is because of my initial low expectations.

You are excused.

because of work and school. i noticed that habitual television watching has dramatically decreased. I used to watch tv--maybe half of the day or the entire day if i was truly bored. now---it started at watching 2 hours of tv--and then one. I got rid of the television in my room--my addiction is now of arts and craft books,novels, books on polytheistic religions,etc and of course the dreaded internet to which one particular artist has deemed as dead.

I go thru cycles. When I get to a point where I realize I"m sending too much time sitting on my butt in front of the TV, I get "tired" of it.

I DVR things I might find interesting. Most of the time, I delete them without watching because I lose interest.

I usually have music on, or I'm listening to the baseball game on the radio.

I hardly ever watch TV. I sometimes put it on for background noise if i'm home alone.

I live alone, so...

I only have one TV- downstairs in the family room. I don't like sitting down there constantly by myself.

I watch too many movies, like one (or part of one) a day so I never watch normal TV. It's too annoying and all the commercial breaks take up too much time.

if im home alone during the day...tv is off....

pretty much going the rest of the time

never EVER give my husband the remote

I watch CNN or The Discovery Channel while I have dinner to keep me company, and every night when the latest episodes have been posted (4 times a week) I watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Report online. It's almost become an evening ritual that helps me relax.

Other than that, I never watch TV. So it's really become about the specific content rather than the overall experience of watching TV, and I think that's probably in line with where society is heading thanks to online and downloadable content, Tivos, etc.

iview.
