Television - Your Thoughts?
Television is always one of those topics that can heat up a discussion. Some people love it, some people hate it and others don’t think much about it one way or the other. Today, one has to be a little picky about what they are going to watch on television especially when it comes to children.
However, that is not to say that there are some really good program options out there. Still fighting the good fight are the PBS stations available in most places. From Sesame Street to Masterpiece Theater; if you look long enough there is something for everyone on PBS.
There is lots of family fun to be found on TVLand and other stations as well. Personally, I watch what I want to watch, but I am not looking out for the influence it might have on children either. I know and follow good morals as well as understanding right from wrong, so if I decide to watch a rather slanted sit com one night or a fast paced action show another night, I am not convinced it is hurting me.
I would love to hear what others think about the topic of televison programming as well…so share away and remember no matter what you watch, it is really all about actions. Spread a little kindness before settling down to watch television tonight.
I don’t watch any TV. There’s not much on that I find interesting, and that which I do find interesting, I watch online.
I mainly watch period drama type stuff and natural history documentaries. I never watch stuff like Big Brother, because I don’t see the attraction. I also don’t watch the news broadcasts, because they just depress me.
There is some good stuff on TV, but I find I have to wade through a lot of programmes that either try to make me buy something, humiliate people or just plain make me feel down. Thank goodness for BBC iPlayer, that lets me watch my favourite programmes without the junk.
