Do you surf TV channels frequently ?

Their are more than 300 channels available on DTH or cable TV but it's practically impossible to watch all the channels . In the good old days of black and white TV there were very few channels and people hardly needed to surf channels but now with the option of remote, channel surfing is more like playing video game. I usually surf TV channels whenever there is a commercial break or while watching TV news as discussion start turning to fights or just a repeat of the same program. Do you frequently surf TV channels or stick to one channel ?

yes the commercials are too frequent and can be upto 5 minutes. You soon lose interest and change channel.

Yeah a lot of nonsense and know there is saturation but I actually keep that opinion to my self so rich jerks do not just takeover and make us miss a lot of cool stuff.

I stick to one channel and that's it. My husband won't let me have the control until bedtime.
