anyone else not watch TV?

[Joe Nerve]

In the last 2 years my TV habit has taken a huge downturn. I realized the other day that I haven't sat down and put on a tv show in months. In fact, when I'm somewhere there is a tv on (bar, etc) I don't watch it. I also have zero interest in any shows that my gf watches in the evening in bed. I just have so many other things that I'd rather be doing.

Like facebook, talkbass, texting, video games, porn... ???

Just wondering .

I mostly watch sports, or if I'm watching with somebody else.
I spend too much time online, reading, and playing music.

Very limited. Home team pro sports on occasion, Walking Dead, that's about it.

I'm catching up with the back episodes of Big Bang Theory via Netflix. I usually learn about the good TV shows about five years in. I'm just not paying attention most of the time when these shows first air.

TV sucks.

I moved in December and didn't take the TV (let the ex keep it) and I haven't really missed it, except for entertaining.

Dumped satellite 2 years ago when we realized that we were paying about $60+ per month to MAYBE watch 1 or 2 shows. No time, no interest, news was 99% BS. HuluPlus & Netflix now come from modem to "monitor" wirelessly via a PS3.

PS:The signature line below has been following me around for a LONG time.

Call it what you want, you are still watching television in my books.

I never upgraded when they changed the signal. I use the "TV" to play DVDs.

I really doubt I'm missing much.

I have never had cable since living on my own. The only time I've watched cable in the past couple of years has been at a friend or girlfriend's house. I must admit that I do feel out of it whenever someone makes a pop culture reference to a TV commercial. *lol*

Last time I had a TV or cable was in 2007. Like others have said, I'll watch something on Netflix occasionally or download a movie but that's it.

I never have been much of a TV watcher. I do have a few favorite shows but if I end up missing them due to other things going on then it's no big deal.

I too seem to be more of a DVD kinda guy. Many times I'll put one on for some background while I'm cleaning house.

Dropped dish using rabbit ears very nice not to think I have things recorded I must watch.
The few shows i follow i use the net

 

[pedroims]

There is only one TV at home and it is in the " TV room", we don't have cable or satellite. Netflix is all we have. I watch 3-4 movies / documentaries per month.

 

[JacoLesFlea]

All I watch on TV is Craig Ferguson, SNL, and Football. and tennis if Maria Sharapova is playing. I use netflix for movies and series I like.

 

[shadowtippy]

I got cable a week ago after not having it since 2006. I watch a few programs, but there are still some days the TV is not turned on.

Eh, people making pop cultures references to TV commercials aren't worth knowing.

 

[dropbass]

Only palladia latley.

 

[wild4oldcars]

I go to school, get on TB, and play my bass. Sounds pretty good to me

 

[lwknives]

Commercials are the only thing I will miss when I move and don't have TV anymore. Im not worth knowing!

 

[BayStateBass]

I rarely watch TV. There's just not much of anything on that I like. We reduced our cable service so we really just have major network channels, and even then I rarely turn it on.

I will watch movies on Netflix, though. Usually one or two a week.

 

[fisticuffs]

I used to watch a ton. Now I barely turn it on except for background noise. There are some shows I will make exceptions for. But I did cut the cable, and it didn't hurt at all. I spend a lot more time reading or playing now.

2 years ago I discovered that the cable company frowns on you not paying your bill for 4 months. I have not had cable since then. I thought it was horrible for about a month then I got over it. I watched DVDs when I wanted to watch something. then a few months ago I finally realized I have an HD TV, so with just a set of rabbit ears I now have access to 11 channels.

I still don't watch all that much TV.
