6 TVs, 1 human.
Living room, den, bedroom, cat's room, kitchen and workroom outside.

None are connected to cable........so what do I need all these TVs for?

Especially since sports are the only shows on when I'm not at work! (And I am so NOT into sports!)

Kim,

I live in a one room studio apartment, so OBVIOUSLY I only have 1 television. I had another smaller tv but gave it to my friend for the office.

**Chilli** · 12-13-2006, 09:16 PM

We have 6 in the house... and there is only 4 people in the family. We have one in the kitchen, living room, mum & dad's bedroom, basement, my old room, one in my sister's room.
Its a super rare occasion when I actually sit down to watch tv. No one in the house really watches tv once I think about it. I haven't a clue as to why we have so many tvs!

**joycenalex** · 12-13-2006, 09:31 PM

2 humans, 4 cats, 2 dogs, 3 tvs. one in the living room, one in the basement, one in the second bedroom. i bought the living room one for christmas 2002. it was the first tv i'd bought in 20 years. there are 2 steros, one in the living room, one in the basement, 2 clock radios and a crd-radio in the kitchen. all of them are energy vampires i bet.

2 people, 3 TVs. The TV in the living room is the only one that is hooked up to the cable though. We have one in Justin's office for his video games and we have one in our bedroom that has a DVD player hooked up to it.

**Cincy'sMom** · 12-13-2006, 10:50 PM

2 humans...4 TV's Although one is inCincinnati at my sister's...and yes I will have all 3 on Sunday, so I can see the TV when I go to the basement to get laudry, to the bedroom to fold, and to the living room between. Can't miss a play!!! (or a lap of the race!)

We have no TV's in the house, and all I can say is...THANK GOD for that!!!

My husband sometimes likes to watch something on his laptop (dvd) while we eat, or before bedtime. I like having quality time to enjoy together, and watching tv while we eat or sleep is not my cup of coffee. I try my best to prevent him from watching things on his laptop when we eat too.

We humans live busy lives, and don't get much time to love and pamper each other. We wake up early in the morning, exercise in the gym downstairs (and get our tv share there). Then we go home, eat breakfast, and hubby leaves for work, while I take care of my own things. I'm away from my husband all day, until evening, when he returns from work at around 6. I LOVE having quality time together, with NO distractions. No TV, no computer, no phone, no nothing. Just my husband and I talking, focusing on each other. When he comes home at 6, we eat, pick up the dishes, wash the dishes, etc. Sometimes, he has some work left to do on the computer. We sleep at around 10...so, basically, after work, we have around 4 hours together before bedtime. Sometimes in those 4 hours, we go shopping, go to visit family, need to go out and do something. Good gosh...if we had a TV...I bet we wouldn't get half our quality time together. That would bother me. I already feel the computer limits our quality time, and though not always, sometimes I feel like throwing both computers out of the house.

Yes, this is coming from the girl who was ADDICTED to the computer before marriage. Things change.

If I'd want to do something together as a family, I'd much rather read a book together, play games together, exercise together. I live happy without a TV, and though most of you would probably disagree with me, I believe quality family time with no distractions is much more beautiful than sitting together on the sofa, looking at the TV screen, instead of at each other.

I don't want a TV to be my future childrens' third parent either. Its a good thing my husband doesn't want a TV in the house either.
