    Does anybody else not watch tv?

    I rarely watch tv. I used to love it growing up. Now I just never find time for it or I'm not interested.

    I can get the news from reading the paper or online. I can't watch most comedies, they're too predictable (sexual innuendo humor on tv has become lame). I

    I can't watch most reality shows. Music channels are garbage. I've never been into dramas or soap operas. The sci-fi channel shows b-movies from 1950 (except for twlight zone which I wish they would re-run) over and over again.

    The nature shows always have an Aussie wrestling crocodiles. I can't sit thru an entire sports game anymore. The history channel is obsessed with Nazis.

    Anybody else like this? LOL

                South Park and Food Network is about it. Even ESPN is getting stupid with all the pool and poker programs. WTF? What's next, DARTS?

                  Well we're not quite to the extent that you are, but we don't watch most television.
                  We've never watched a reality show on network tv.
                  We have been watching FoodTV, HGTV, and FitTV a lot latley.
                  Also, HBO and Starz whenever there is something good on.
                  The thing we've been doing most lately, is buying dvds and watching those.
                  We get to fill up our collection and be entertained at the same time.

                        We do not watch tv at all, unless we are at a friends place, and they insist on watching something. We do have a tv, but only watch DVD's on it.

                        TV trys to sell you too much shit that you dont need. I hate that.

                          yeah, I haven't really watched television for about 5 years now... once you get through that first year, you begin to realize just how useless sitcoms and "reality" shows truly are and feel no need what so ever to go back to them.

                            I watch maybe 3-4 hours a week.. but I do like my movies, I watch maybe 10-12 hours a week.. sometimes more. T.V is boring though, internet has alot more freedom.

                                Mostly just football on Saturday and Sunday. Other than that it's a few hours of History Channel and Comedy Central per week.

                                  Friends was the kind of mindless fluff that drove me away from mainstream TV. I watch mostly news channels, TechTV, occasional movies, TVLand, some international stuff. TV is only a waste of time if you let it be (I owe half my computer knowlege to Leo Laporte). I've got 1000 or so satellite channels to surf so fortunately I'm never stuck with sheeple entertainment. The CBS Monday night comedies (Raymond, Still Standing) are the only sitcoms I watch with any sort of regularity. If I'm home at 9PM I catch 2 episodes of "Who's Line is it Anyway" on ABC Family. Now that's comedy! Shame it's no longer in production.

                                    I find TV appalling.

                                    I only watch documentaries on BBC and Channel4 and BBC News 24.

                                        I don't even have cable - the only T.V. I watch is football games with the guys on Sundays at the sports bar - other than that I watch DVD's at home - it's the commercials on T.V. that made me stop watching it - I hate standing there and being bombarded with crap - that I don't want or need - ( I know I'm opening myself up here - so go ahead and insert slickcash spam joke here) - oh well - just had to vent.

                                          I used to listen to the tv as background noise.
                                          In my new house there is no cable so there is no possibility to watch tv.
                                          I have not worried a second about this.

                                                  i don't watch tv expect for the nfl, theres some shows i like but i just don't have time, the majority of tv now is reality shows which i can't fucking stand.
