I don't watch tv and don't have cable/sattelite - got rid of it years ago and I don't miss it a bit.
Everything I need to know, I can find on the internet, at my convenience. I read the news, when I want, not at 6pm, like the rest of the world...that's pretty much all I use to watch - well, that and the weather, but I can see that on the computer too.
And my entire quilting world is available to me on-line, all the time.
