With ReplayTV, I record everything I would like to watch. However, I do have to schedule time for TV that doesn't interfere with office work (while at home), house work, or time with my daughter.

No. For movies, I guess. I just stay up late. For this very reason I do not own a DVR. If I ever get one and find a TV show(or worse, shows) that I like, I'll sleep less and that's just lame. It's better that I don't know what's good.

No, not really. The occasional sports even maybe (golf or basketball :)), but nothing else. Watch a bit while eating, or if bored, but don't specifcally go out of my way to schedule time to <granny>watch my programs,</granny>

Yes, but during school i record them and then watch them little by little when i have time, specially on weekends.
I still havent watch the first two episodes of CSI, they are on my queue.

Nope,

If I am bored I will watch sports, but that is about it. I guess the exceptions are sports playoffs if they contain my favorite teams, or are hockey/football. Even then, I am likely to meet a buddy at the bar and shoot the breeze/

I very rarely watch TV at all, much less work it into my schedule. Dropped satellite last winter to save some cash, and I don't miss it. If I really need to veg, or I'm folding laundry or something I'll pop in a DVD. On occasion when I have tried to watch something, it was just stupid.

Maybe you were watching Lifetime or something?

Anyway, the 5 HD Discovery channels, the National Geographic Channel, TLC, and Cartoon Network are the reason I have a TV :)

Not unless it's coming in over broadcast :p

Discovery & the History channel were pretty good, TLC was getting stupid when I still had satellite. I don't think my package had National Geographic. But they weren't rising high enough up my priority list to make the cut.

Exactly. I don't need to make time for TV - the shows I want to watch are waiting for me whenever the time comes! :D
