I've noticed that I've stopped watching fiction on TV as it doesn't seem to be of the quality it was. I tend to rely on books for fiction (and rarely read non-fiction any more). My friends, however, are the opposite and won't read fiction (it's "made up" they say) but will happily watch it.
I lived without a TV for a couple of years and honestly didn't miss it but I realised that the things I didn't miss was the fiction I watched (apart from comedy). I'm not down on TV, by the way. I think it's an exceptional medium and one of my favourites. I just worry that we're ruining it.
However, while I've never seen most of the shows you like, the two that I have watched (Misfits and The Big Band Theory), I do really like. Although I think they should have stopped Misfits after the second series. It used to be really, really good, and then it was just good.
I agree with the Misfits comment, although i didn't mind season 3 i thought the Rudy character was a better replacement for Nathan than i could have thought of, though the fourth season has taken a plunge of a cliff it is terrible. but off topic, the reason i ask the question of IIN is because when i get to talking about tv with my mates they only seem to watch 2 or maybe 3 shows as religiously as i watch all 20+ of my shows and i can talk about my shows for hours, and when they start talking about other subjects i try to steer it back to tv
Is it normal To watch a lot of television shows?
