[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 360486, member: 1157"] My TV is usually on if I'm home. I'm not always paying attention to it, though .. I'm likely on the internet, fixing something to eat, cleaning, texting, etc. etc. As I mentioned in the other thread, there are only a handful of "must watch" shows for me. I'm a huge channel surfer, I get bored with shows easily, even more so with commercials. The older I get, the harder I find it sit and watch anything at home for any length of time any more; it's like I've developed ADD in my "old age." I'd rather be out doing something, to be honest, and I do that a lot.. some weeks I'm out 3-4 nights. When I am home watching, though, I do LOVE my HDTV .. I can't live without one now. I especially love it for watching FOOTBALL :) I only have [B]one [/B]TV in my place, which shocked the cable people recently when I moved. I do have an extra TV, but have not hooked it up in the master bedroom. It was a gradual process .. years ago switched from cable to antennae in the MBR, when the apartment I moved to had no cable hookup in the bedroom. I got used to just watching the network shows in there. Then, when everything went digital, I never got around to getting a converter box, so I lost TV in the bedroom all together. I found I didn't miss it much; I listen to the radio(NPR) in the mornings when getting ready, and read at night before bevd. When I recently moved, I do have a cable hookup in the MBR again, but, didn't see the point of paying for an extra cable box to go in there. So, I'm still a one-TV household. (soon to change for awhile when Youngest stays with me for a few weeks.. but that's a story for another thread). [/QUOTE]
