We have Television in our bedroom, so we always watch TV before we go to bed, but sometimes if my husband is still watching TV i don't care, cause i can just fall asleep while watching with him. It is nice when you have TV inside the bedroom cause you can watch comfortably in bed and if you feel tired and sleepy, you can directly go to sleep. How about you? Do you watch TV before going to bed? Do you also watch TV till you feel sleepy or till you fall asleep? :)

I am totally addicted to watching tv untill I fall asleep. The problem is that I have also got my seven yr old doing this also. Bad habit to start but for me I find it being a very relaxing way to fall asleep

We don't usually watch TV. We watch if there is a specific show we want to see on, or in order to catch the news, but otherwise, we read until we feel sleepy.

I don't watch tv essentially to make me feel sleepy, but at times, after watching tv, I feel terribly sleepy.. I usually watch tv till 11 with my whole family, and by the time the tv programmes are over, both my mum and dad are asleep, only i m the one who is still watching it profusely...lol

Hi, Yes we have 29" Tv in our TV lounge and 20" Tv in our bed room, So we sure watch TV at night before going to sleep. In bed room u can surf channel of ur choice at cable, can see anything u like, in relax and comfortable mood. While in TV lounge u have to take care of others and see channels accordinly. as kids are thiers , parents are there. Hey it does not mean i am looking for Prono channels., LOL And some times i go to sleep and even TV is ON, i can sleep with lights on and TV on, and sure its in light voice Some time i read book while have TV on, onlyy music playing there, its FUN too Take care

I keep my TV on all night. The noise helps me to go to sleep. If I don't keep it on, I'll just lay there until I finally have to get up.

I have only one TV set at my home, it is in the livingroom. Besides, I am not so interested in watching TV today. If I have time, I will use computer. So I seldom will watch TV until very late.

i can't watch TV at night until i fall asleep, because i have no TV at home. if i like to see TV program, then i will watch it online, or watch it in my friends' and neightbours'. but i often see cartoons online at night until i fall asleep. i put my desktop in my bedroom, because i have only one room in all. haha. sometimes i will get sleep whil i am seeing the cartoons, then my boyfriend will power off the computer for me. it is good to see cartoons on my bed, it is quite comfortable to see it with my boyfriend.

Sometimes, but not always. Usually before going to bed, I surf online. I usually love to watch 7-o'clock news at home and abroad, which interests me a lot.

We have a tv in our bedroom but we seldom use it. We watch tv in the living room or the kitchen and rarely upstairs. I don't know why but maybe because hubby goes to bed way before I do. I do turn it on in the morning every now and then to watch some shows that I like but don't feel like getting out of bed.

I don't watch television that much. I just do watching if i wanted to get updated about the latest happenings. I don't even watch television at night till i fell asleep. I'd rather listen to music than watch. I dunno why i am not used of watching. My passion lies on other activities. Like painting, listening to radio, reading books and internet surfing.

Yes i do watch tv late at night but only in low volume and normally music as i am working on my computer at the same time. When i am on sites like mylot where one needs to concentrate for answering disucssions then i switch off my tv during that time.

We also have a tv in our bedroom. I can't sleep if the tv is on and I have to have it very dark in there to be able to fall asleep. So we watch tv and then when I get sleepy we turn it off and go to bed. If something is on and my husband still wants to watch it then he'll go into the living room and finish watching it. He respects the fact that I can't sleep unless it is very dark in there.

Yes I do infact I have the tv on everynight before I fall assleep because it helps me fall assleep for some reason. It sooths me just like how some people listen to classical music while going to sleep. But I cant fall assleep to anything with action in it only comedys like seinfeld and the fresh prince of bell air also spongebob dont know why but that show is awsome to fall assleep to lol.

We used to have a television in the bedroom but we found that we often stayed awake later if we got involved in something we liked and didn't want to miss. Now our approach is to watch television in our great room with each other and our pets. Then when we start to feel sleepy we turn the television off and head to bed. That way we usually go to sleep right away. I have a tendency to fall asleep downstairs anyway and often when watching a really good movie. I think being absorbed in something relaxes my busy brain or something like that. In any case I think most of us would agree that television is a great way to relax and wind down the day...where ever we watch it! All the best.. Raia

you can just set the sleep button on what time you want the TV to turn off automatically. Hope you have a nice day!

we are exactly the same, i get sleepy first before my husband so he'll be the one to turn off the TV. sometimes when i am still awake i turn it off if we're getting sleepy already then we both sleep at the same time. :) If my husband fall asleep first i turn off the tv for him. God bless!
