These days there are hundreds of channels available on TV. Each channel runs 24 hours a day. How many cahannels do you actually watch? how many of youjust keep surfing channels without actually watching any? I do nt see more than 3-4 channels as I hardly watch TV and when I do, I jsut turn to my favourite news channels. Most of teh channels are a waste as far as i am concerned. if thre were jsut a few good channels giving good content it woudl be more than enough. What do you think?

I only watch FOX(Sunday Night), ESPN, History Channel, and CNBC. Other then that my TV is usually off. they add more channels, so that way they less quality programming can be put on and then they can charge for the extra channels your are getting.

I actually don't watch that many. I watch the History channel, discovery, National Geographic, speed, the pursuit channel (this is a hunting/outdoor channel), and a couple of other channels. I usually don't even turn it to any of the other ones. I have Direct TV, so we have a guide channel that we can look at to see what is playing on all of the channels without having to actually flip through them. I use this feature all the time instead of channel surfing.

I must have at least a hundred channels! I watch all of them as I keep on pressing buttons on the remote control! There's always something to watch but I guess there are times when you just have to sacrifice one program in order to watch another! I am a telly addict and I am proud to admit that. I love the news channels though, Sky News being my favourite. I also like some of the comedies like "Only Fools and Horses". I think that I'm forever reaching for the remote control and I'm sure that I'm starting to wear the batteries out now! Andrew
