    Is TV overrated?

    Never in the field of human technology has so much good invention been available at such a low price, for the purpose of wasting more time on more rubbish than any other medium could dream of.

    Your Sony Bravia is only £700 if your time is worthless.

    That's like saying the printing press was a waste, it depends on what books you read (or TV programs you watch). TV is just a means of conveying information through audio and video, I love documentaries and have learnt a lot from them - radios and books can't touch HD television for this purpose.
    You can lead a fool to wisdom but you can't make him think.

      When I have something better to do I do it. When I havent there is TV.
      TV does not rule my life.
      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

      Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

        Personally I think TV has never been better, the arrival of huge choice and the ability to schedule it when I want means I never watch crap.
        Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
