I never watch TV, avtually. I only watch TV if something's on. Like once per month. Because I can't stand the commercials plus I don't like most of today's crap.

Sure there are a few quite nice shows (i.e. scrubs), but my TV-watching times are over. I did it excessively, needed to change it.

A fine selection here! Might want to add Stroker and Hoop to the list , that and American dad (made by Seth Green the creator of Family Guy), and robit Chicken (also made by Seth Green). They are new and all kinda funny in their own way.
I found American Dad to be a fairly unremarkable Family Guy clone. Robot Chicken just bores me. Watched my first ep of Stroker and Hoop last night and I have to say it is seriously the most f**ked up show on Adult Swim. And that's after Sealab and Aqua Teen. It was the one with the beauty pageant. Is it always that morbid / cannibalistic?

I watched American Dad for awhile. It's funny, but definitely not as good as Family Guy, and only has certain good parts. Like it's little jabs at America in the form of things like the "terrorist alert" colour thing on his fridge.

I enjoy both of those shows though. Especially the UCB, what a fantastic show.


Did you see the ASSSSCAT improv special on Bravo? It was UCB and some SNL people. Some of it was a little weak, but some of it was also pure gold. They better make another special... Or I guess I could drive down to LA to the UCB theater? :P

Easily more than 12 hours, but most of that is from series I download to watch rather than whats on TV. We then stream the footage to our TV to get a nice homely feel. Stuff I watch ranges from Lost (fantastic program) to Family Guy (new series and the FG film ocasionally) to Weeds (program about a widow of a rich guy who has to start dealing drugs to keep her lifestyle) and other cool series. We have just about every episode of all the big series there are. Couple of episodes of Lost a day easily makes up 12 hours a week.

The stat choices are somewhat unrealistic. If one is honest and considers every moment they watch, the numbers would almost always exceed 12 hours per 7 days. Thats only 1.7 hours per day. 6 commercials, or 2 music videos add up to more. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif">

I watch very little TV and still exceed 12 hours weekly.

Averaging 1.7 hours of TV per day is quite a lot I'd say.

As for watching very little TV I don't think exceeding 12 hours counts as very little. Very little is 1 hour or less a week.

I haven't watched TV since school started 3 weeks ago.

The games industry now makes more than the movies industry. Why then aren't there any channels here (Australia) that are dedicated to games (even on cable)?

If I am home alone, I usually chill on my computer, but the TV is right behind my computer desk so I have CNN on pretty much all the time. I used to be a CNN addict right after 9/11 and right when the war started.

I hate myself for that now, but I used to sit at the edge of my chair pretty much 24/7 waiting for another video of a bomb falling in Baghdad. I regret it now because this war is not a war. The only thing it is is massive terror and murder for oil and money. I hate Bush and his administration and I think he is an equal terrorist to Osama Bin Laden and he should be prosecuted for it.

I also follow Nip Tuck and HBO, SHOwtime boxing matches.

GO KLITCHKO! GO TARVER, kick that clown, excuse of a life, n***** jones right in the arse!!!!
