Could you live for one year without watching television, or for 6 months without a TV?

I do love watching TV, and if I had to go a year without it, I could do it. It would be hard, but it would be good for me, because I would probably read more.

I watch about 4-5hours.\n\nWhich means:\nI work 9hrs\nI sleep 9hrs\nI shower and groom for 1hr\nI walk my dog 1hr\n\nI spend all my spare/free time watching TV!  I think I might be addicted.  I do watch it while I'm on-line too.

You could live but wouldn't have much of a life. Feeding would be by tube through the nose directly to the stomach with a liquid only existance.

Families would have to start communicating with each other again! We'd be out and about a hell of a lot more, we'd be forced to find other ways to entertain ourselves and our standard of literacy may improve since reading books would suddenly get a lot more popular.\nYes, I agree it is total waste of time most of the time. But, like anything, moderation is the key. I would banish the TV from all bedrooms for a start, sleep and television do not compliment each other. \nWhat about computers? In some ways they are just as bad. I know I can spend hours glued to the Internet!

I once heard you can live 3 weeks with no food, but with water.\nBut only 3 days without any water.\nMind you people have been known to fast for a month on only water, so I suppose it depends on all the circumstances.

I could deal with no television and no movies, but no music would kill me.

watch tv and try to mimic the behavior of a functional member of society.  avoid sitcoms, talk shows, daytime drama, news programs... uh, on second thought, avoid tv altogether and just bs your way through, and if u fudge up, then ur not ready to go yet.

Television in moderation is not bad.  However, if you come home from school or work and plop yourself down in front of the lobotomy box all night, it is bad for your brain and yourself because (1) you aren't getting any exercise; (2) you aren't getting a single thing done at home all night; (3) you're watching mindless slop for hours on end.  It's not bad to watch two or three favorite programs, but it is bad to make television your babysitter, your best friend, your only hobby, or your therapist.

Hate to burst your bubble but it's miserable! I end up with pneumonia every winter and last year I don't even remember 4 out of the 10 days I was stuck in bed. You get bored, sore from laying around and stiff from not using your muscles. I was so weak it took all I had just to get out of bed to go to the bathroom.

Can you put it off for a while?  Perhaps tell them you'd like another year to think about it?

for me i dont watch tv everyday\n\nbut i guess 2 hours a day is about resonable, coz if i had to watch tv it would be a basketball game or such which takes about two hours.. but still i wouldnt do it everyday im sures theres better things to do than to just glue to the tv screen and sit back do nothing for two hours a day

By day one I would be huddled in a corner gripping my knees, staring into space and repeating silently, "INTERNET! INTERNET!" By day two, I would have died from a massive heart attack. \n\nJust kidding! I can live without a computer for a week, but two weeks...that's a whole different story!
