i have gathered that most people when they think of tv think of turning your mind off and staring blankly at a screen. i, however, see tv as another medium for learning. i very much enjoy watching the cosmos, through the wormhole, and the countless other space shows to supplement my book learning and help to visualize concepts. i enjoy watching the tedtalks on netflix. there are some really cool ones, like benoit mandelbrot (the fractal guy). i use my brain when i watch tv.
i am not afraid to say that i also enjoy watching tv series like breaking bad and dexter. the people who shun tv shows just because it is television are very small-minded. don't say you hate all television but that you love films and movies. that's ridiculous. can you not see that a fanastic show such as breaking bad is just like a very long, drawn-out movie that you watch in chapters?
like all things, television is best in moderation. don't watch too much and don't shun it for reasons that are not well thought out.
