Unfortunately not. I enjoy things like anime and game of thrones. But not most shows

FighterForFreedom · 2018-09-17T21:47:39+00:00

I watch only sports. Fake news, stupid shows- absolutely not.

The only time my TV is when my daughters staying around. And only for a max of 2 hours a day. Except for when Game of Thrones is back on. Other than that I'm doing other stuff, mostly diy, walking the dogs, in the garden, hobbies, or sleeping, I hate TV nowadays. Even supposed real life documentaries are fake and scripted, ax men, gold rush, everything else on history or discovery channels.

I only use my tv to watch anime that's it

I only use mine for gaming and YouTube videos I choose(mostly how to videos). I don't pay for cable tv. I just pay for internet through the cable provider in my area.

I cut my cable back in 2007 or so? Maybe 2008... I waste plenty of time on the internet, but I definitely curate my own content by seeking out my own interests. I still watch movies, but only after they're out of theaters.

Honestly, its surprising how fast you lose interest in seeing upcoming movies without subjecting yourself to 30 minutes of trailers. If you do see a movie, just show up 20minutes late to it, and skip the trailers. Seriously, I used to waste so much of my time going to see movies at the theater which I knew would be mediocre, all because subconsciously i was just a movie going sheep.

when I got my new place during my separation several years ago, I cut the cable and haven't had cable or satellite, no hulu, netflix, or whatever the Amazon stream is called. now I do things outdoors, bad weather/winter, I work on creating music, i.e., higher value, more interesting and rewarding pursuits.

Watch south park

I've been using my big flatscreen TV as a clothes rack for like 6 years now.

Feels bad wasting money on something you barely use.

I occasionally hook up my PC via hdmi for movies but that's less frequent than once a month.

And yes, distancing myself from one source of state driven propaganda has helped my critical thinking abilities.

TripOverNothing · 2018-09-18T09:43:21+00:00

I don't even TV.

tipo33 · 2018-09-18T13:10:14+00:00

I haven't owned a TV in a decade.

dvbtupanit · 2018-09-18T20:20:27+00:00

I don't have a TV for the last 15 years.

mgtowaccess · 2018-09-18T10:55:58+00:00

I watch a few selected shows and movies(never live tv), but mostly I practice piano, programming, and listen to music. Occasionally I get hooked on a videogame.
