Now, broadcast TV is pretty much garbage (most
programs are cops,
doctors or reality/game/talk shows). We own a TV, but it's not a
large-screen model, nor is it in the living room, nor is it remotely
new. When we're out, we leave it to entertain the dogs.
I have a large-screen TV because I like movies, but I rarely get to see them in the
theatre. Netflix is my friend. :-) I rarely watch any broadcast TV except for baseball.
What I find amusing is that my wife records (on Tivo) a 'daytime drama' (soap
opera) and watches it on the large-screen. These shows have the lowest production quality
of anything ever aired, and the large format amplifies that most unflatteringly. -- Ian
