I watched all matter of junk on television. I married a guy who works too much to watch tv (darned farmers!) except when the Cowboys are playing. It's been good for me. I really curbed my tv watching schedule when my first child was born, because I didn't want him exposed to all that filth... and now I find my ears have been highly sensitized too. I can't believe the stuff I used to watch! Now we still do tv for the occasional program on Noggin, Mickey Mouse, ESPN and The Weather Channel(we ARE farmers after all) and Fox News. I do allow myself one "fun" show--The Unit. I've read an awful lot more than I did for a few years, and get more done too... Funny how that works!

I think my age has something to do with it. I've reached the stage in life where the reality that we only have so many hours/days on earth has taken on greater clarity and most TV watching just seems like a HUGE waste of time to me. I feel the same way about sleep, but am forced to give in to that one. =) I tend to agree, but must admit that I do enjoy watching a variety of sports on TV.
