The TV finally died last night.

We're now TV-free!

Of course, unfortunately The Boondocks finally premiered last Sunday (after 4 years), which is really disappointing.

Well if your happy I'm happy! But I would FREAK if my TV died!

: I hate to say this but ......I am a TV addict and I don't want a cure! But it would be great for the kids to never see it again! Congrats!

 

[MamaBug]

Oh yes and sorry you missed your show

We only have one TV. It's an RCA from the 80's that SO has had since he was 16. If it dies, we'll go shopping for a new one.....at a pawn shop.

Congrats! I hate TV, and only have one b/c I like old movies.

our TV "breaks" daily. I unplug it and we only watch things that we have planned on watching (mainly nature and nova) and the occasional movie. Dd is getting wise about the unplugging though.

Congrats...
If that happnes to our TV I don't know what dh and I will do

we are TV addict.

Good for you!
Ours broke this week too.. We were only watching a couple shows at night and movies when we had time.. But it sure is great not having the option of watching.. definitely curbs the TV cravings..

I'm secretly hoping that our TV breaks someday, too. All we get is Fox anyway--what's the point?

ahhh-there's a Boondocks show!

Hmm....darn. Have been without the tube for years, but have one set for dvd's and well taping og the Boondocks.

I have become quite the anti-consumer without the tv and really dont know the people on the mags anymore-lol! Hope its all good for you

It is sort of interestring what happens when you unplug - like Isleta says (hi chica!), you don't know WHO those people are on the mags anyway.

What a relief.

Life fills with other stuff that matters much much more.

And Izzy is right, you aren't such a consumer anymore, at least, your consumption isn't trriggered by their ads so much.

(disclaimer: I don't unplug from the WORLD - I read two newspapers a day - but NO TV. Life's too short to give it over to them. It's ours, after all.)
