Simple as it may sound watching tv serials binds you to fixed hours. In other words it takes your freedom away. Since the last fortnight I have stopped watching tv serials and I am enjoying the freedom I have in terms of doing what I want with tghe time at my disposal. I normally have my bath in the evening. Many a time when there were serials to watch I would rush with my bath, which I no longer do. I take my time. Are you a free bird? What binds you?

You could tape (or whatever the correct technical term is) the serials and watch them when you have time.

You have a point but I have never tried this so far.

We keep the tv on and watching news is fine while myLotting but not while watching serials or episodes.

We usually watch the news at 7pm but it doesn't worry us if we miss it. That's about it really.

News is no issue here we can watch it even while we are busy elsewhere.

I try for it not to take over me. So when I can I just buy the DVD versions and not watch TV too much. Its get in the way so many times and I can't afford to lose time when I have a deadline my self.

Yes that's right. And i don't watch serials. But yes I watch anything related to our country's history and that's not in a form of serial. Just anytime I see i watch. But now a days I'm watching Bajirao :)

I can miss a program easily if I want to also Television can be great for you and it can also work against you.

I am totally free from watching TV series. I can watch or catch up on youtube. There is no need to rush on watching on TV.

Having Netflix lets me watch what I want when I want and I love that, as well no commercials on netflix.

One of the reason I stopped watching TV series. Not that there was anything new going on. Same stories repeated over and over under new names and new actors.

I am bound to a particular site where I have a deadline to make. I have been trying to reclaim my life again.
