THEY ARE So BAD...



...but who cares?! hahahahaha, burn eyes burn (j/k)

Personally, I don't think It matters.
As long as it doesn't become a "habit" or and obsession, then I don't see a problem with it.
Also, It's important to be AWARE of the difference between TV and LIFE

Only thing I watch are:
a)Movies
b)Comedy
c)Anime
with the ocasional game shows, celeb stuff, etc

Both. good if you watch it just to fill your free time..bad if what you watch you apply it in real life a.k.a wrestling +_+

Perfer play computer to watching TY

TV is good but only if you only watch it for a few hours (2hrs max), if you watch too much it consumes alot of your time thus making no room for anything else

Most of the time it can be good, because you can learn new things from some of the stuff you watch. Other times there might be bad habits people are doing that would give kids a bad idea or something. So it's 50/50 for both. =/

Watching TV is obviously something that all of us do almost everyday. But does it really help us? And some people say that "TV rots the brain cells." Any thoughts?

I don't think everyone watches TV everyday. I know I don't I don't have time for it on weekdays. I watch it quite often on weekends tho. On weekdays it's school, computer, and homework.

TV is good. We learn from it right.

Yeah we learn from it, but that doesn't mean what we're learning is good. MTV=evil. It seriously is the cause of at least half the problems in today's kids. I mean, it really messes with peoples' minds. If MTV says that it's cool for guys to use eye liner and start crying about killing themselves, then all of a sudden, a bunch of people in highschool start thinking the same way. Same thing with gangster rap. If you go out and shoot people, you're one "badass dude." When you find kids in inner cities thinking they'll be something special by living the "gangsta life," you'll know why. Think about it, some little kid growing up in a bad neighborhood sees a rapper on MTV rapping about all the girls, money, and fame he gets from being a ganster, who do you think that kid is going to listen to? The ordinary teachers at school or a popular rapper? So yeah, TV can be bad depending on what you watch. MTV is definitely one example of a bad channel.

:::::::Sorry for the rant, but I really hate that freaking retarded channel. Everytime I go to eat on campus, it's playing on the TV's there 24/7:::::::::

Like Pjs8879 said Tv is good if you watch educacional programming or something that's really going to be useful. On the other hand most TV shows don't really contribute on anything, and can take away of time that is needed for other things. Just use time wisely when watching TV.

If TV "rots brain cells" why did the invent it? I think some people say that to make sure their kids never watch TV and if they did everyone on the face of the earth would be a total and utter idiot. Unless you don't watch TV. PLus, it depends on watch you watch if you spend you days watching cartoons all day like 2cms away from the TV you hvae problems not because you have no brain cells.

Beer kills brain cells and alot of people drink beer and are total idiots. An example could be: some drunk fat guy and a few of his idiotic friends are trying to see if they can brake a brick wall with thier heads. And it ends of one of those idiots hit thioer heads soo hard that it kills them or they loose alot of brains cells. What if brain cells could grow back? that woudl be awsome! but then more people would drink and do things that is a danger to their brain cells...so I guess the reason why we watch TV is because someone came up with the idea and it just got out there...and we all just started to catch onto the trend I guess...but then again I spend most of my time watching TV =/
