Seriously, I don't watch television unless it's a movie on a cable network. I can't really afford premium cable movie channels and I don't have time to rent movies or use Netflicks. I'm very odd in that I really just enjoy being surprised by turning on the tv to find a cool movie already on or about to start. It's like occasionally using the radio in the car for music and you actually find a great song to listen to when your just driving around withthe window rolled down. I guess that comes from growing up in the late 70s, early 80s when we had HBO but no VCRs even. Again, I like to be surprised not have shit whenever I want it. I'd pay good money for a digital network that played nothing but movies non-stop of all eras and genres and you had no schedule or concept of what was going to be on when you flip to the channel.
Basically though I'm in front of a sketchbook, canvas or computer screen drawing or painting whenever possible.
Don't really have time for tv...except for [adultswim] of course.
