My thoughts on T.V.

Personally, think that T.V. is a great invention. Although I'm not obsessed with it, there is a show or something every one can enjoy and just relax watching a program every once in a while. We can get so stressed out over all the activities we partake in that it is probably healthy to just sit down and chill. The average attention span for an adult is about fifteen minutes so how can some people sit mesmerized in front of the T.V. like it is an addicting drug? Couch potatoes and people who do nothing but sit around watching hours after hours of television, i do think, take things too far. T.V. was not meant to make our society obese or lazy and in a way I see the point people make when they make that statement.
My favorite shows have to come from the CW. Shows like Gossip Girl, Beverly Hills 90210, and One Tree Hill are my favorite probably because the main characters are in highschool, and I can relate to these shows. They also have a lot of drama and you won't get bored watching them. DVR is another technology that is very handy in today's society because this just makes watching your favorite show easier. If you don't have time to watch the entire hour program you can simply just fast forward whatever you want, and this is something I like to do so I don't spend my entire afternoon in front of the T.V.
The only way T.V. can be looked at in a negative way is if some one abuses it and just sits watching T.V. for most of the night. If you have nothing better to do, than that's fine, but a T.V. is not a friend or sibling who you could be spending quality time with.
