With TIVO and Netflix and computer & video games...do people really watch that much TV anymore? I've lost track.

Monday night 10pm Travel Channel - Anthony Bourdain

I have no clue what is on at any other time on any other channel. My 7 year old, OTOH, could probably recite the weekly lineup for Animal Planet or the Discovery Channel with her eyes closed. But now that the weather has broken - the last thing on earth she wants is to be in the house. I have more important things to do in my life than bother with the TV.

I don't watch much in the way of tv-watched one episode of The Sopranos, and swore I'd NEVER view it again. Nothing but "F" every other word-not a virgin here, but my old rule of thumb was always, the more swearing in something, the weaker the script. More 'godfather' crap-why should I care about a bunch of vile scum that live to double-cross and kill each other? Garbage. Watch Animal Planet, Discovery, Lou Dobbs, other than that, pretty much movies -the older, the better, as a rule, and occasionally a talk program. Hard for me to believe I used to watch for hours a day back from the time I was a kid until about the early eighties.
