Cool It all depends...

It all depends on what you are watching and at what time of day/night. If you stay up late at night watching those manipulative infomercials who know that only people who watch them are insomniacs who are so tired, they'll believe anything and sell you knives that can cut your shoes up or a blender that will supposedly solve all your problems...

I have been in that situation where I have seen these infomercials and thought to myself, "I can't believe how long I've lived without [this product]. I really need it now." But I wait until the next day to "sleep on it." The next day I wake up and think what a ridiculous idea it was to even consider buying freezer bags that are air-tight so there is no freezer burn. I don't even use my freezer.

I am not TV-free, but i did try it for awhile, and then went on to only watching one show a week--South Park, when it was all-new. I'm still not sure if I can go without TV completely, but I am sure I can cut down on my TV viewing habits considerably as there are many other valuable things I could be doing, such as building up my website. So TV is not something I want to rule my life...just something to use once in awhile for worthwhile entertainment.
