We have TV reception in the house we are renting until we build again, and after only watching DVD's it is a shock to be expected to sit through all those Ads if we turn on the TV! And I never watch the news either - for both the reasons you pointed out :) <br />xoSandy M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09463236853839331077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3617609328294072924.post-65317396200952376102012-11-23T15:43:22.264+10:002012-11-23T15:43:22.264+10:00Thanks for this post!

I've recently cut back on tv, and I'm getting so much more done!<br /><br />We didn't have a tv in London... because you had to pay for a license every year! I loved not having one. Now that you can record tv shows, I hardly ever watch anything live. I can't stand all the ads... and once you start watching tv series without the ads.. going back to ads feels like such a waste of time!! <br /><br />P.S I hate the news. Every story always has the media spin on it, and it's rarely 'good' news.

It's like I suddenly had this whole new world and I totally got drawn in to a million shows. And it's true, I allow so much into my home and mind that I wouldn't otherwise. <br />At the moment Robbie and I have started a new thing - no TV except for half an hour between about 7:15-7:45 at night (after putting Hallie to bed) to sit on the couch and unwind. Other than that we're trying to cut back. The exception is me because I can still watch something I've recorded while I'm feeding in the middle of the night or whenever. Otherwise I get super duper bored because I can't read when I feed Hallie because she tries to touch anything in my vicinity and she rips the pages.. :S.<br />Anywho, I like this post Mum and it's a good reminder. I need to re-draw my lines about what is and isn't appropriate to be brought into our home via the television. <br />:)Beth and Robbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07680179211937501427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3617609328294072924.post-36398164944282008002012-11-23T11:32:54.993+10:002012-11-23T11:32:54.993+10:00could same the same about the internet and what is...could same the same about the internet and what is shown and written on the internet....there's not all bad in technology.

And so happy that James feels the same way and doesn't remotely want TV - I used to wish he didn't go out and play sport so much, but I'm glad he's out there playing it instead of watching it on TV. We should write a book with all our free time!! - something about... vampires?? lolAbbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508311593157719111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3617609328294072924.post-23374178624808097152012-11-23T08:54:37.208+10:002012-11-23T08:54:37.208+10:00I used to think that too, but now I am glad not to...I used to think that too, but now I am glad not to watch the nightly news. I don't mind not knowing a lot of what is presented. I found our weekly Time magazine a good way to follow important events for many years, and now I look at the news each day on the net - which allows me to follow my interests and ignore the rest. <br />xoxoSandy M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09463236853839331077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3617609328294072924.post-6860553020065477692012-11-23T07:46:29.031+10:002012-11-23T07:46:29.031+10:00The main thing I missed was the news.

I watch TV shows on DVDs, but not TV. So I guess we weren't missing much :)<br /><br />xoxo TammyTammy Lornahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04419410261955929701noreply@blogger.com
