I think I'm starting to, like a few years ago I'd watch about 30 minutes to 1 hour of TV. these days I'm watching up to 3 hours. Its very unhealthy, I want to work out or play basketball or something but I'm too nervous with My social anxiety and all. I don't know what to do.

what about you? do you watch too much TV?

god yes! :lol: I don't know exactly how many hours a day I do watch, but it sure is over the average of what you're supposed to watch. If my TV wasn't so big I'd pick it up and take it every where with me, even if it didn't have a cable attached to it. Let's just say i'm addicted. :D

I used to watch a lot more than I do now. It seems like all my favorite stations took off my favorite shows, so I only watch about 4 hours of tv per day. Yeah, it's cut down quite a lot.

I watch more tv than I should, especially in the winter. During the summer I'm usually outside.

When I was younger, I used to watch a lot of TV, but I've found that ever since I started college in fall of '99, I've been watching less and less TV each year. I've lost just about all interest in current network TV.

I'm either watching to much TV or playing my PS2.

On Mondays- Friday- Gilligan's Island, Happy Days, Judge Judy, PTI, Sports Center, WWE Raw (ON Mondays only), then PS2 until All in the Family comes on, and of course Three's Company all week seven days a week can't miss it!

I don't watch alot of TV on the weekends in the summer,but during the fall I watch a few fishing shows Then its all football until the last game is played and on Sundays all football and NASCAR. and Three's Company! Then I go to bed at 3:30 and wake up at 11:30 and start all over again!

Lets just say that I watch less tv now than ever before. Ever since Nick at Nite took off Happy Days, Bewitched, & The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour and replaced it with The Facts of Life that's when I began loosing interest in tv. It doesn't feel the same anymore.

Ditto. I long for the days when there was something to watch.

I watch 30 min of news in the morning. Oh, and The Powerpuff Girls. - 1 hour.

I watch from 4pm-6:30 - 2.5 hrs.

3.5 hours. Weekdays that is. Weekends it's much less.

Well I think it's obvious that he hates it when when he started those fights when Facts was announced to come to Hallmark.

I remember, he was upset because it wasn't The Lucy Show coming instead. I would love to see The Lucy Show, I Love Lucy is getting annoying imo.

Oh yeah! My TV's on most of the time. (Though not yet today... hmm...) Of course, I frequently am not really watching it; it's just on for the noise a lot of the time.

Why don't they ever show TLS? I know I Love Lucy is one of the most memorable shows out of the 50s, but Lucy is just as memorable in her other shows. It's weird they show so much of ILL and not any of her other shows. I know the comedy hour is on TVL now, but Idk you think they'd show TLS.

Anyway, my take is that Lucyfan should be happy that FOL came instead of TLS. Look at how fast FOL got screwed over. The episodes went through the rotation once and then got dropped. If TLS had shown up instead of FOL, it might be getting the screw over. You could've seen it on Hallmark (TLS) but frankly I'm the type or person that tapes a show to make copies. I want a copy so if the first tape screws up, I'll have another copy. My VCR's are in 2 different rooms and I don't feel like moving one of them just to make another copy. I just tape the tv show however many times I want off the tv.

Hallmark didn't even show every ep of FOL, I don't think. They could've did that to TLS too. It's best to wait for a 'good' station to pick up the show and it be a good station that gives it a good timeslot and airs the rotation numerous times and shows every episode.

Yeah, jmo

Well said Jenny, I agree 100% Hallmark did FOL crappy. LucyFan you should be glad that wasn't The Lucy Show.
