hi everyone!
do you have a bad TV habit?
you see, i am not very much into opening the tv set myself. but when somebody starts watching and i join him or her, most of the time, i would be left as the last one watching and i would have difficulty tearing myself from the tube. and then i would watch for hours on end.
well, this use to be my habit. thank God i am so totally out of it. or else i would be wasting more time in my life. right now, i would rather ptp...where i am earning, hehe
i think that is a better use of my time than watching TV.
so what about you? are you like this? do you also have a bad TV habit?
good day all and God bless you! :)

I have several television programs that I like to watch. I don't die when I can't see them, and I don't normally tape them when I miss. I know some that will not go out to dinner, a movie or have company on certain nights of the week at specific times because they will miss their programs.
I like alot of the detective shows: NCIS, Law and Order and The Closer.

HEHE I don't watch television myself but then if someone else is then I will. I tend to no watch for weeks on end then one night I will sit there for hours and hours watching til the wee hours of the morning. I had a really bad TV habit when I first got cable after 7 years with no television. I watched forever! I would not want to turn it off. I felt that if I was paying $30 a month I wanted to get my money's worth. LOL Now I pay $42 a month for basic cable and I never watch. LOL Once the kids go so does the tv. HEHE

Oh yes, I always watch tv when I get home from work in the evening. I just lay on the bed and watch the tv programs i like until past midnight. Sometimes I fall asleep and the tv is still on. I also sometimes do mylotting while watching tv but I can't concentrate a lot on myLot, so most often I can't post any response to a discussion. 
I just read some discussions posted, so nothing earned...hehe

Hello spoiled311,
I seldom have time to watch TV but when I do have bad habits too. I don't like people to disturb me whenever I am watching my favorite program and I love to snack while watching TV. Since I seldom have a chance to spend in front of the tube, I manage to get rid of my bad habits gradually. I hope they won't come back!

hello!
I'm glad I don't have that bad habit. and glad we don't have cable tv or else I just might have a bad habit to fight with.
The reason why I don't have that habit is because I don't really enjoy most of the shows on our local stations. I only watch the shows that I like. I used to follow every episode of smallville, but somehow I've lost my zeal for the show. And mostly, as long as i didn't see the start of the show, or get to see 2-3 minutes of it, I don't get glued to the tv.

i dont watch tv at all. may e this came with the genes as no body in my family does. all work late in the evening and by the time they come bacvk thwey are too tired to switch the tv on and watch. make some nice hobbies that will eat up your time instead of watching tv.

Yeah, I must say that is one habit I will not give up on! Unfortunately, most of my favourite programes come late when many people in the house want to sleep, so I end up remaing alone in the living room watching!
