How many hours per week do you usually watch TV? These days I rarely watch TV, so it's usually as little as 3 or 4 but sometimes as much as 15 if there's good stuff on.

And which shows are on your regular wathc schedule?
I usually try to watch the simpsons, then hockey, and any good comedy show thats on when I happen to be looking through the channels.

I used to watch TV, but then I discovered the internet. Now I barely pay attention to the TV even though it's about 6 feet from me and on constantly. It just bores me now. I'd say around 20+ hours a week because I watch the late night talk shows and PTI and Around the Horn on ESPN almost everyday. My Schedule:

-2:00 - No TV
2:00-3:00 - ESPN
3:00-6:00 - MTV/Discovery/History Channel
6:00-8:00 - Comedy Central
8:00-11:00 - Various Channel's (FOX, MTV, CC, FX, CN, NBC, WB, History/Discovery Channel)
11:00-12:30 - ESPN NFL Football 2k5 on the Xbox
12:35-2:00 - Conan and Carson on NBC.

That's what channel's the TV is tuned to. I barely pay attention to it though and I usually have Headphones on.

This is a tough one. Well, at college I watch 0 hours of television because I don't have any TV there, so yeah.

When I'm back at home though, I watch a pretty good amount, probably 35-40 hours a week...I watch an hour or two of Full House/Family Matters on ABC Family, then not much until Around the Horn/PTI on ESPN (sometimes) then Simpsons twice, then Seinfeld...Once it hits 8 P.M I'll watch the Phillies if they are on, and if they aren't there usually isn't anything good on. Sundays are good for primetime HBO (Six Feet Under/Da Ali G Show.)

Yeah, so I watch a lot if I can...

I'm not even sure. Some weeks I don't even watch TV with all that crap on there. I'd say maybe 6 or 7.

Since hockey is on now, i would say about 10 or 15, because mainly i watch TV at night, like talk shows and stuff.

Around four or five hours. Like Acebot mentioned, my TV time got slashed once we got internet.

I watch about 1 hour a week. I watch the new episodes of Teen Titans and Ultimate Justice League on Saturday. Although while I'm on the computer the TV is almost always on...every now and then I'll turn around to look at something.

I have my TV tuned to BBC America almost exclusively now. Only time I turn it off is when they have the news on or if they're showing something I'd seen 3 times earlier in the day, in which case I switch to HGTV.

For total time, hmmmm....I start at 9am every weekday and go 'til about 3pm. Then when I come back from work at about 10:45pm I start again and continue until bed at about 3am, soooo....it's well over 50 hours a week :-o

Less than one hour a week. It's really rare that I'll watch any shows now. But I'm going to watch JAG when that premiers again.

0 hours a week. I only have 2 channels.

I recently stayed at a friends house for about 3 weeks, and they watch TV constantly, so I was watching more then.


If I actually had satellite or cable the only show that I would watch would be THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART!!

I love that show. Nothing else interests me.

EDIT: +rep to the pirate

I don't watch any TV regularly... I used to watch The Daily Show every night it was on, but nowadays when I get home from work I've already missed the first 5 minutes and I'm tired and wanna just get on the computer...

I tend to have the TV on while I'm on the computer, but I don't pay much attention...

Exciting...

Well, during the summer I watched A LOT of tv because I had just gotten cable at my house and there was nothing better to do.

But now that school is started and my boyfriend is back I've got other things to do. So, I would say I watch about 15 hours a week.
