| Do you regularly watch TV? If you do not, I would like to hear the reason why, please. If you do, how long do you spend watching TV a day? |

| I have "pet" shows. The Office My Name Is Earl The Sarah Conner Chronicles (the new Sarah is as hot as the old!!) The Law and Order Franchise with Momma. I can't watch it by myself, but with her it's cool. Seinfeld in syndication Everybody Loves Raymond w/ Momma NFL Football and some select college Strongman Competitions Some Baseball SO, during the Football season I watch more then others (and it's cold outside so we're indoors more) My kids, hobbies, and general thoughts on T.V. have WAY curtailed my viewing. I probably average 2 hours a day. | |

| Yup, I do, but not nearly as much as I used to. Right now the only shows I watch faithfully every week are "The Simpsons" and "Lost." Occasionally I'll "sample" new shows as they come on (most recently was "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles") but I rarely stick with them for more than an episode or two. Beyond that, I watch the Yankees during baseball season (though I usually just have it on in the background as I do other stuff) and my wife and I watch a lot of Food Network. _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

| Nah, not really. When I do, it's not much network tv, it's stuff like the Discovery or History Channel. I usually try to catch the Simpsons when I can, but there isn't much else that I watch on a regular basis. Also, with Tivo, I almost never watch anything at it's regular broadcast time anymore. I hate commercials. | |

| I voted yes but that's sort of misleading. I usually have a TV on but I seldom just sit and watch it. Most of the time I'm doing something else at the same time. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

| Monday Night Raw (occasionally), Law & Order (all three), CSI: Miami, Without A Trace, the police video shows (not cops but ones that Spike and True TV show), Monk, Psyche, 4400, Burn Notice, and a few others. Old episodes and occasional views of Everybody Loves Ramon, Family Guy, Futurama, Empeor's New School, Farily Odd Parents, Spongebob, some Britcoms, Simpsons, King Of The Hill, etc. Some shows I see when my Dad's home like Judge Amy, Los Vegas, Dr. Who, Gunsmoke, and Sanford & Son. Like the last two mentioned I watch other classic and older stuff like Night Court, F-Troop, Bevery Hillbillies, Get Smart, Adams Family, The Munsters, Fresh Prince, and others. As you can see the only TV I watch are the occasional cartoon, dramas, and old shows. Most of the new stuff is utter crap and I don't waste my time on it. I also watch DVDs of Faulty Towers, Are You Being Served?, The Critic, Blackadder, Alf, Looney Tunes, and others. | |

| I watch a few mainstream shows—Survivor, Lost, and CSI. Basically Thursday night. Then I watch the hell out of the History channel and Discovery, usually between midnight and like 3 or 4am. I can't crank the tunes that late, so I just watch whatevers on those channels.
Then I've got Wednesday and Friday Night Fights, and the Ultimate Fighter show. Oh, and Ghost Hunters is my latest favorite.
Damn...guess I do watch a lot of TV. Haha.

| I put "No", but it's a dirty stinking lie. Actually I get home every night and turn on the tube. Sometimes PBS has something actually interesting, but usually I end up watching Scrubs or Southpark re-runs or something. I get what I deserve. Like a lot of you, when I listen to music I really listen; so it doesn't always fall into the "relaxation" catagory. On my ride home I'm always listening to music and evaluating (or re-evaluating) where it belongs on my play list or in my library. So I usually want to take a lttle break from the tunes when I get home, and I end up turning on the stupid tube. | |

| I have some good stuff on DVD (like The Wild,Wild, West TV shows), but I never seem to get around to watching them. I have most of Roberto Duran's career on DVD, and I've meant to go back through and score all those fights, but that seems almost like work to me. I would be better off getting the DVD habit rather than just turning on the set and watching whatever garbage is on, but sadly that's what I tend to do. | |

| I only watch tv if its on, I won't sit down and actually watch TV for hours. The reasons why: a) I'm in school, and I need to do a bunch of homework, b) I work a lot. and c)I'm trying to lose some weight. If I do watch tv, it will most likely be a movie or the Discovery Channel. Also, I don't have cable or sattelite.
The only shows I watch are Seinfeld, Married With Children, Conan O'Brien, Cash Cab, Mythbusters, & Dirty Jobs. | |

Alex I love the Stargate shows (I still need to see the series finally of SG1). I haven't seen Atlantis in over a year, I feel like waiting to catch up with it on DVD instead of trying to catch the episodes because with my memory and busy schedule I forget to tape them and I don't like missing episodes (I wish we had a DVR). | |
