Probably about 30 minutes, max.


Fiance has the TV, I have the computer. I can't handle most of the crap on the tube these days.

Less than an hour... Of course, the Bravo network is causing a spike in my viewing simply because I can't get enough of "West Wing".

Mebbe 2~3 hours a week of current affairs, world news type stuff, and thats about it.
Rest of the time, I prefer to watch my PC monitor......at least there I have some control over the crap that gets splashed all over my screen :)

Only show I make time for is "King of the Hill."  Computer has replaced TV for the most part.  AH and this message board.

I have the TV on when I'm working at the drawing board or at the easle painting oil paintings, though I don't do many oils.  I watch a lot of stuff I recorded years ago.  Old war movies, etc.

Not much, only a handful of favorite shows per week, if i remember to watch...

Varies from nothing to an hour, depending on the day.

0-2 hours (2 hours in case of severe hangover).

In 2000 we had an Ostankino TV tower on fire, it burned severely, and we had no TV in Moscow for three days. The feeling was beautiful. Looked like the sun was brighter, people were more friendly, I woke up in the morning hearing the birds singing... As if the huge load of brainwashing was removed, you could literally feel it in the air.

not much,  long enuf to see the news, see that everyone still wants to kill everyone else.  Get depressed, turn off tv and start drinking myself in to sweet unconciousness.

Log in AH about 20:30 refreshed and ready to go.... :D

1, if I'm lucky.  Usually doing homework, reading, testing with my kids mon-fri. On week-ends we usually catch a kids movie on tv (DVD) together. On Sunday, about 6 hours (Football season)

Well, let me see here:

Monday: none.  After work I go to the gym for 3 hours and play sports.

Tuesday: If I don't go to a local volleyball match, I'll watch an hour or two of History Channel while playing Aces High (gotta do something during the climb-outs and Panzer treks).  Or I'll leave the tv off and work on a scale model if its not too hot in the garage.

Wednesday: If I don't go to another volleyball match, I'll do an hour of History Channel, after I've gone running, while flying online.

Thursday: TV night with the wife, after I've gone running.  This is the night we watch the episodes of "American Chopper", "King of Queens", and "Everybody Loves Raymond" that we taped earlier in the week.

Friday: maybe an hour or two of "The Howard Stern Show" and "Wild On..." during AH Squad Ops.

Saturday: College football if the Gators or USF Bulls are on, otherwise its "Iron Chef" during dinner and whatever happens to be on the tape from earlier in the week.

Sunday: NFL football day.  TV on from 12:30 to 7, then from kickoff in the late game (if one is scheduled) until its over or we pass out.  We usually fall asleep during the day games, so the tv is on even though we're both passed out on the couch.

So, excluding football, I'm watching between 5 and 8 hours of tv a week, maybe more than that if there's something on that the wife wants us to watch (last night we caught the premier episode of "The Bachelor" even though we don't plan on following it all the way through.  We just wanted to see who the local girl would be who was on it).

Ever since I went back to School, I'm not in the same room as a TV, except for 15 minutes before I head off to work.

But on Sundays I watch football in the early afternoon,(1:00-4:15) and candy-ass Chargerball in the evenings (4:00-7:30).

I used to watch Law and Order every nigt on TNT, and at least 1 episode of the Simpsons in re-runs. For this I blame my wife. I didn't have a TV before I met her.. I mean really, I had a computer, what did I need a TV for?

My downfall came when I had to start sharing the computer with my wife.  When football season is over, I spend too much time watching "Forensic Detectives" and "Tales of an FBI Profiler with Dale Hinman" because the wife is doing her MIS schoolwork on the Dell.
