Television plays an important role in our lives. Through watching TV, you are aware of what's happening in your hometown and even all over the world. You will learn a lot too. Television entertains us. Television gives us more knowledge.
I watch TV but not for a long time or not often.
But if i watch movies, I can sit for three hours or more.
What about you??

It all depends on my mood and mindset,if am free and feeling bored ,i will tune for some good channels and keep watching it non stop and if i am very busy,i wont get the time to watch it.
Basically it is all about how the engaging factor is done and it plays a vital role and if i am fascinated and attracted towards it,i can watch for more hours.
That is not a big deal for sure

I watch television every day for only for around two hours a day on weeknights. Sometimes, I don't watch tv anymore on weeknights if I am too tired from work. But on weekends, I love staying home and having a tv show marathon. I usually watch five to six episodes on a weekend. That is one of my hobbies.

It really depends on the show that is on. If I love the line up or the shows that I watch comes next to each other then I can watch TV for a long time but all in all I just watch TV when the show I watch is on air

I love watching TV for three hours. But these days, my TV is broken so I spend most of my time reading books.

I keep the television on all the time in the computer room. Catch the news constantly as I work online. Most often I am working on a craft if I'm away from the computer since the tv stays on while I craft. Movies are a different story since they put me right to sleep. For sure I know it's not safe to lay down and watch movies. I wake up when the movie is over.

I use to be able to watch for a long time, but these days...everything is such trash and violent and stupid and boring...I tend to fall asleep within the first 20 minutes! So I don't watch to much.

To be honest, I can watch TV for the whole day especially when i am alone here at home and nothing to do. I just sit or sometimes lying in the bed for a long time while watching TV because I love movies and TV series. Good thing my husband is not complaining when I am watching TV series for a long time instead he accompany me and buy some snacks for us which is served as our bonding moments during weekends.

I have to say I personally hardly ever watch TV. I do like movies yes and can watch maybe 2 at one sitting tops. Actually in fact I don't even have cable or satellite in my apt, just internet. lol

There was a time I spend more time with TV programs and felt comfortable. But for the last 2-3 years, I got fed up with the programs - baiscally the repetitive nature of the shows, sub-standard items, and so on. But I spend time with quality movies and HD programs, if I get a chance to see it.
Also, computers (internet) and other busy schedules are the other reasons to keep away from TV. But I like to watch the great rare channesl, if I get a chance to see it.

Hi,
I am very lazy person, i cant watch TV for much time, i even feel bore of watching a movie for 3 hours. If i sit to watch TV , then the program should be very interesting, if any point/situation occurs , which i dont like then, immediately i change the channel, there also the same , ..so finally i get fed up and off the TV , and movies, i wonder how people sit for 3 hours and continuously watch the same drama, thats also very difficult for me..

It depends on the mood at that time.If i got upset then watch comedy shows in tv that change my mood immediately and laugh by watching the scenes.TV is a great entertainer when you feel alone and you can watch various program and you learn world knowledge by the way of watching news about animals,world news and games.You always keep on update in tv shows but sometimes shows are repetitive,that time i think shows are shown to people who missed to watch on that day.
