Welcome to the party, pal....
Not very long ago I gave TV the big 30 month try out, I bought satellite and HD TV the whole thing but it was stupid, there just isn't anything there for me. When TV doesn't own you it is hard to understand it's attraction when you sit in front of it, you might be amused a little but the rationalization it takes to keep swallowing the propaganda and the indoctrination and junior high level titillation escapes you.
