I am 49 and I HATE TV! I cannot bear the sound of it running endlessly in the background!
The 2 that we own are on for maybe 1 hour and 30 minutes per day, between child and hubby.
They mostly watch sports.
There are no TV's in our bedrooms or on the top floor where the bedrooms are.
We pay for the minimum channel exposure and I have blocked most everything that has no intellectual value.
I used to love Brit and got my dish post 9/11 because I could only watch non Fox news- it's the People's Republic afterall! Post election.. I shut the damned thing off all together and I am thinking of selling the 27" in the den.
Any buyers? It's only 8-9 years old!

We have one little TV, only because my son's roommate at college couldn't take it on the plane. It is on Saturdays for ND football. Maybe Ohio State, but we always hated them when I was a kid. Still do. Sundays only for football. Love to cheer for the hapless Browns and against the Steelers, Baltimore, Denver, Seattle, and a few others. That's it. No NBA, no MLB. Used to love baseball but now, not so much. Don't even listen on the radio anymore. The TV sits unused in the football off-season.
