I have my TV on all the time, I live alone and like the noise. Like really has never been off in 5 years except when the power went out.

With our old TV, we were told to keep it on 24/7 because it kept dust off the tubes and we had that TV for 20 years, but I don't know about the flat screen. I do keep it on 24/7 because I'm here all the time and do watch certain programs. Plus, at night I don't sleep well, so I put it to a station I want to watch. That puts me to sleep every time! But as soon as the cable goes down, I wake up and that's upsetting.  Also, if I have a Dr. appt., having the TV on makes people think someone is still home (we have 2 vehicles). :)

I keep it on often for "company", but am finding that I want to turn it off more.  The quiet is conducive to being able to think more. Often just the weather channel.

I don't like "needing" it in the background. So, I am in between now.

I do watch the news and an occasional program on purpose though.

It really depends. I usually binge watch shows and have 2-3 shows I always keep up with so it could be 10 hours or 25 hours depending on what is going on that week.

I try, try, try not to watch television at all unless there is something on that I know I want to watch. The television and the computer take up too much of my spare time and I would like to kick the habit.  :-[

Don't see that happening soon.  :-\

It varies as to how many hours I watch tv. I mainly watch it on the weekends and sometimes I leave the tv on for the noise during the weeks.

I watch it for the news.In this volatile world we live in I need to keep abreast of what's taking place. Don't really like the crappy shows on now. There's too much in decency on them. That's just me :moon:
