Do you watch TV?

If not, why. If so, how much,

I do watch a lot of TV, BUT, 90% of it is recorded and I watch it in installments when I can have a quiet moment to myself. Rarely do I get to just sit and watch something uninterrupted.

I don't really. I watch the news in the mornings when I can. We haven't had tv service in this rental for almost 6 weeks. We we move into our new place, we'll be back on the bandwagon. I just don't like much that's on tv these days. It just doesn't hold my attention. I think I watched the most when my babies were all in the first month or two of life. I like playing on the Internet or reading. Though, I've got DVD's of Star Trek playing in the background right now.

I gave up tv in 2005.The only shows I like are The Office,Community,and Downton Abby.All of which I can watch online.I am not into reality shows,or teen drama's.Which seems to make up most of what's on.

Not really.
We got rid of the tv and cable to switch to Netflix.
Have the app on my phone and I watch things just sometimes.
It was just an added distraction. I kept it on all day for background noise as DD was picking up some bad things from commercials.
When she was 3 years old talking about losing 15 lbs when she was only 26 lbs, I saw changes needed to be made!

I will watch the news here and there.  We don't have the tv on often.  When we do it is for the shows that we watch.  WE do not have cable so it is just local channels and we do not have a dvr.

We only have Netflix, and I watch at night after the kids are in bed if I don't have a good book.

Yes my TV is on 24/7.  Usually during the day is all kids shows or on for the dog if we go out and I get the TV after 8pm till I go to bed.  So 4-5hrs a day.
