in my case, no more. i mean im not into it anymore really. i dont have time to sit and watch television series, news either, though its very important. because i spent much time in front of my computer and since im working also. so no more time for television, and im not looking for it also. LOL are you still watching those series that your fond of?

I barely ever have time but when I do I go all out. I watch tons of shows and movies and have most of them on DVD at home so they work to my schedule. However, watching a tv show on DVD changes thw whole atmosphere and feeling of the show compared to regualr veiwing time. I prefer the regular veiwing time with my family and friends.

Personally I have not been much of a TV watcher myself for yrs. Most of the time I would rather be reading or doing something on the computer instead. About the only shows I get into anymore are the News, Law & Order SVU, Ugly Betty and The Biggest Loser. Otherwise it can be a definate waste of time for sure.

I seldom have time to watch television now as I'm a college teacher and have to prepare for next day's class in the evening. Without television, it's hard to keep up with the latest news. Fortunately, however, we have internet now through which we can always know what is happening all over the world. As to those series that I'm fond of, I choose to download them from internet and watch them when I'm free.

I still do, working online and at the same time watching TV, what I did I placed my PC near my TV set so to keep me updated about current events and following my favorite TV series. I can't give up TV because it is my other venue of expanding my horizon.

I only watch television while I'm working online. I usually watch adult swim while I'm mylotting and working on all of my other sites. I like to have some kind of noise in the background to keep me entertained because online earning can get frustrating sometime.

I used to watch TV while I cleaned the house, but I had stopped watching TV for 2 years. When I had TV again this year, I found it hard to do any house cleaning, since the commercials are laid out to take less than 3 mins each segment. I end up not getting anything done. So I canceled my TV service and just stick to cleaning while listening to music. It's nice to see that other people try to manage their time well.

I don't have time to watch the latest series anymore. The only appointment-television I care to make is when the canucks play. I'd make sure most of my chores are done before the game starts. The rest I can do in-between periods. If I do find some free time for myself in front of the TV, I'd watch. But I can't promise to watch next week's episode.

As far as I am concerned, I think I am so busy now. I just have little time to watch The TV set. For me, If I want to watch some TV programs, I will turn on my computer to find some classical movie to watch. I think it is a waste of time to watch the TV for so long a time.

There are lots of other things to do, better than watch TV. Personally, I think that watching TV is kind of a passive activity, which doesn't imply your brain. It turns you into a vegetable, because you don't have to think, to process any information; you just receive it.

My partner and I tend to watch television in the evenings after dinner. Neither of us will simply stare at the television if there is nothing interesting on though, I will happily sit and read while my partner plays guitar
