Some people easily can fall asleep with the TV on. To me, that's distracting because all of that background noise rambling on while I'm trying to sleep. I used to do it back at home when I didn't have a night light but then my momma would always get on my case about it because it is a waste of electricity. Can you sleep with it on?

tv - A TV play so important role in our modern society and we could not leave it . this TV looks good , not only because itself is good,but also its around condition is good. 
I like watch TV and especially like this kind of TV and like watching TV in this kind of condition. 
but I really don't like keep TV on when I go to sleep .
Good TV, hope I can get more funny from it . and I can not think one day without it.
never. it is hard to get sleep if there are some nosiy around me and I think I will not go sleep when a TV on. even the TV are playing some soft music, I still could not sleep .I don't know why,but it is the truth for me . I think you have a good sleep and you can have a TV on and go sleeping. so good luck with you. Anyway, I think your mother might right. sometimes, if you can turn off the TV and then go sleep, you can save some power. maybe you don't care so little cost for electricity,but power is important for this society.

Yes I always fall asleep with my TV on, sometimes the programme help me to sleep, but it's not good because it's a waste.

I do not have the habit of leaving the TV on when I'm going to sleep. I will only fall asleep with TV on unless I'm very tired or someone is watching it with me until I fall asleep

Gosh, I'm so dependent on the TV to sleep that I wake up immediately if it gets turned off. Something about the backround noise drowns out the stuff that my brain wants to obsess with, preventing me from sleeping.

I actually prefer to fall asleep to the tv being on. Many times I dont actually mean to fall asleep, I will start to watch tv or a movie and then fall asleep to it, then sometimes I will awake to "Mary! Where are you? Mary?" lol, just some loud voice or noise on tv and turn the tv off as I am half asleep. I love falling asleep to it, but hate waking up to it later!
