    TV or Books?

    If you had to pick one would it be TV or Books? Personally I can't live without my books.

    I didn't vote because I think it depends. Films and TV programmes made out of books are not usually as good as the book itself, but there are some things on TV which are amazing to watch and can take you to places around the world whilst still sat on the sofa. Personally, I couldn't live without both

    Books, no doubt about it. Of course, I'd have to write my own PotC book. Or I could just read the script, which I do anyways.

    Books, no question. There are some tv shows that I like, but I could certainly live without the 'idiot box' as my g-ma calls it

    Books! They have so much more detail. And you can imagine it the way you want.

    Books, you don't need electricity or batteries to read a book!

    I hardly ever watch tv.

    I'll admit it, I'm a tv junkie! I do enjoy reading, but I couldn't live without television. I must have it turned on all the time, even if I'm not watching it I like the noise. I also like to have it on when I fall asleep.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    Gregory Maguire rocks!

    Books, definitely. When I watch TV, I read during the commercials.

    Me too. I have to have it on for background noise or I go nuts. I have it on softly when I read a book (I'll have it on something I'm not interested in watching though). I never used to like it on when I fell asleep, but Justin changed that. Now I fall asleep much faster when the TV is on then when it isn't.

    T.V of course!!

    I read like 4 books a year or less, altho when I do start to read I don't stop till it's done .. like the other day I read a good book in one day! but I rather have T.V because I like nature chanels, Malcom In the middle, That 70 show ect .. lol.

    A book would be my only option on a stranded island cause no electricity.


    Actualy I don't watch T.V or read books realy so .. computer would be my 3 rd option!

    I wish I could enjoy reading, but I have reading comprehension problems and I often jumble up what I'm reading. I hardly have the attention span for a book anyway lol.

    I prefer books, I don't really watch TV much. I don't really read a whole lot, either, though, but mainly because I'm picky about what I read. Once I find an author I like, I read every single thing they've ever done...then I have to find something else. I do usually read at least a chapter a night before I go to bed though.

    I spend too much free time online- though not as much as I used to. I also play the piano and work on art projects and of course play with the pets.
