Anytime I have the TV going I'm on my laptop or playing like DS or PSP.
I blame commercials.

i have cable but its not even hooked up now at least in this room.. i never watch tv. just download the shows i want to watch but i'm all out of new shows.
really there is nothing new on t.v. currently except for sports games because of the writers strike.
maybe anime but pssh.. no thx. maybe some blood+ but that's about it.

yeah I like those channels too... I DVR and torrent too so I can skip commercials... but the TV is just always just in the background.
I don't know, I was just never a TV person.
When I was a kid I always played with legos or whatever while everyone was watching TV.
I had a TV in my bedroom for about 3 months and I never watched it. I hate TVs in bedrooms.

I'm pretty much through with TV.
haven't sat down to watch a 'program' in ages.
-------------------- Annnnnnd I had a light saber and my friend was there and I said "you look like an indian" and he said "you look like satan" and he found a stick and a rock and he named the rock ooga booga and he named the stick Stick and we both thought that was pretty funny. We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.

I watch discovery, and thats really about it.
I also watch House...
I want to give up TV all together some time soon.
Comedy Central I gave up on, after I realized just how horrible all the people running it are.

I'm with most of you guys!
The only shows on tv worth watching are on the Discovery channel, and occasionally the History Channel. I'd rather surf the internet and try to learn something than have my free time bombarded with invasive tampon commercials and infomercials.

Exactly, its background noise to me too. I havent just sat and watched tv for years though its usually been in the background.
I blame reality TV, theres just a mountain of crap to sift through to find the gems and its really not worth the time

I guess I'll just agree. If I watch TV it's either South Park, History Channel, Discovery Channel, or HBO. It's probably a max of 3 hours a week.

well SS, I don't really watch TV. I do netflix Tv shows and watch them in big blocks, with no commercials. I don't like watching a show that comes on at a certain time (I dont have DVR or TiVo) and I dont like being a slave to the TV. So I cant watch a series unless I can control the flow of episodes.
On the weekends I get into some Discovery Tv and any of the shows that depict ancient civilizations , but it is background noise as I chat it up.
People who watch large blocks of TV bore me. Unless Im stoned, I cant sit for hours watching just the TV. im too ...?

And I don't get stoned anymore.
TV is only good as a monitor to watch films on - oh and a decent series on DVD boxset.
I have no time to waste on commercials.

It costs £135.50 per year.
You can be fined £1000 for not having one.

wow the price for a license has gone up considerably since i last lived in the UK...it was £100 back then.
i remember a tv license van rang our doorbell and accused my flatmate and i of not having a tv license..i was like fuck you shithead yes i do showed them the receipt of payment and everything....they were like apologies etc etc and it turned out the neighbours downstairs were the ones skiving from paying their license...
anyways, i think i watch a lot of tv..but not on actual terrestrial tv...but mainly husband and i watch pay per view mma fights, k1 and documentaries. the only time we turn on our tv is to watch f1 and ski jumping

The only things I sit down and watch are Jeopardy and NFL football. I turn it on to CNN in the morning just for company. Isn't that fucked how it is comforting to just have the TV on even if you are not watching it?

Yeah, that's kind of fucked up, especially if you are watching the news, as if you needed to hear bad news just to start off your day . But I'm sure that's not what it's about. I don't watch TV anymore, but I've been watching The Sopranos online lately.

National Amusements is the parent company for Viacom who owns part of comedy central.
I still watch some TV... there are interesting programs on Discovery and History sometimes. Simpsons/family guy/south park are probably the best thing on TV methinks.

yeah, I like those things too, but I mean who actually sits down and ONLY watches TV?
Usually I'm on the laptop or do something else while the TV is going. The only time I ever just sit and watch TV is at my parents... and that's probably b/c they don't have a wireless router... LOL

I'll watch TV when there's nothing on the Internet 
Internet > TV
I watch the news, standup comedy, some talkshows, I watch documentaries on Discovery and National Geographic, I watch movies mostly on DVD and that sums up 90% of my television time.
Most of whats on TV is garbage I don't need, interrupted by people who want to sell me garbage I don't need.

Ah, Happy Tree Friends.. catchy tune, fun flick to watch (at Mondo, not the TV)
Most of my friends think it's fucked up and no fun at all. I guess they still haven't gotten over the shattering of their own innocence, because that's on a deeper level what HTF is about.
You're having happy harmless fun and then Destiny comes and fucks you over in the most terrible way imaginable. Such is life sometimes. Way to go Happy Tree Friends

I watched "Montel" today and I have to say that it blew all my perceptions about these talk shows out of the water. Best show I've seen on network TV in years.
He had nutritionists come on and tell people the basic things that EVERYONE should know, about how to eat healthier and how something as small as walking at a brisk pace 30-45 minutes a day reduces the risks of Cardiovascular disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes, etc by hundreds of percents.
I might be biased because I'm majoring in this field, but damn I'm glad someone's trying to educate the fat, unhealthy masses.
I'm buying this book for a few people in my girlfriend's family because of the show I saw today. http://www.amazon.com/Living-Well-Transform-Supercharge-Spectacular/dp/0451222938/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1199394778&sr=8-1

Isn't Montel a huge MJ advocate?

And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus

Yeah I think he's got a medical card, but even if I'm wrong about that he's a pot advocate for sure.
I like the guy a lot, he belongs in a class of his own apart from the TV trash that's on in the mornings/afternoons.

Sometimes I watch tv just to occupy myself when I have to much shit on my mind. I'm the kind of person that will sit and worry about dumb stuff if I'm not doing anything else.

Happy tree friends is like life, that is what makes it so great of a show. I just like the way they die sometimes, very graphic!  Besides, there is violence in a lot of cartoons, look at any of the Looney Tunes. I like my tv for certain shows on fox and to watch DVD's and play x-box games.
p.s. even kids would like HTF, I don't understand why some of your friends dont like it.
