A month without TV?

I have been turning off my TV service for the summer for years. We usually cancel it around April and turn it back on in October or November. We just got it back last week. I feel like the break is good for everyone. We still watch movies and play some video games but I just don't see the need for it when the weather is nice and the outdoors is calling. I was actually ready this year to get it back on and I think it is because I do not have a lot of money to go and do things that I enjoy. I find myself bored now and TV cures that in a lot of ways. I guess the longest I have gone without TV is for 9 months.

When you need background noise put on a Radio Station or CD. I love Pandora.com because it morphs to your musical tastes. Enjoy the quiet time and learn to find peace with it. Once you get used to it you will really enjoy it!

Once addicted it's very hard to get rid of this habit. If you are TV addict then you can't live without TV for long. You'll feel very lonely and a sense of missing something.

I couldn't begin to imagine life without TV. I must admit it has become a necessity for me. Not only as a background noise, but it helps me with whatever I am doing around the house. Back in the university days, I used to have the TV on while I was studying. If there was no TV, I'd fall asleep.
These days, I use the TV to get to sleep (funny, it has become the reverse of what it was). I put it in sleep for 15 minutes, and I would have fallen asleep before it turns off.
I also use the TV as one of the things that wake me up in the morning. I set it the night before so that it opens up around 15 minutes before I am supposed to wake up. Then my cell phone goes off. Then snooze, then I wake up.
So no, I have not gone without TV for any span of time.

I have been living without TV for more than 4 years now since I started working. At times when I go back to our main house in the province, I would watch TV but that rarely happens (like about every couple of months). Most of my news come from the internet.

I do watch movies (downloaded ones) and even youtube clips. So I don't really feel deprived of television.

I never watch TV,I find that my head will stop work when I watch TV and I become very lazy and even a little stupid,so I never watch TV,I would rather sleep in bed when I have nothing to do.

When the kids were younger like grade school age, we took the t.v. away for over 6 months because they would never do their homework and when it was bed time, they would say oh but this is my favorite commercial, that's when we said that's it, no t.v. Well their grades improved and they learned to like reading and play more board games etc.

I could just imagine. If you keep yourself busy then its ot on your mind. I couldnt live without my laptop or internet. I remember this past summer I went camping for 5 days and couldnt wait to get home to see all the freebies I missed out on

oh my God live without T.V is like Live without air and water bcz T.V is a good friend and time pass .I think it is not easy but I can not watch T.V toomuch not because I am not fond of T.v But I use internate instead of T.V so for me I can not live computer instead of T.V what do you say?

I tip my hat off to you because I do not think that I could do that. I think that I could go four days without the television. I do not think that I could go any longer than that.

although i dont watch a ton of tv there are shows that i really like to watch through the week such as murder she wrote and documentaries on the history channel so i dont think i could do that.
we do watch less tv during the summer, but more during the winter.
