    You may think I'm some kind of weirdo here, but....

    I haven't had a tv set since October 2001 and I don't miss it at all. I was sick of wasting my time watching utter crap like the Villa, gameshows, the fekin soaps etc. I missed the Simpsons, Sopranos etc for a while but thats all. I'm totally clean now!

    Night time radio is excellent, I'm reading much more, doing "stuff" and meeting my friends more often. Its great!

    So get rid of it, thats my advice.

    Anybody else ever try giving up..?

    I had no TV for a year when I first moved out, the only time I missed it was when my firends called round and got all fidgety cause they couldn't turn on the box. Oh, and I had to go home to my folks to watch the Simpsons, 'twas the days when they were only on once a week on Sky.

    I've been living in London for 5 months now and there's so much good stuff on the radio that I could easily live without a teevee, except that I work for a TV/radio listings company so I need to keep abreast of things. But we mostly use it for playing our 70s video tennis game.

    Having said that, I haven't had a video since I moved over, and I do miss that.

    i'm pretty much the same,
    buffy and angel are the only two shows I REALLY don't want to miss, and would kick up ****e over if I was made miss them..

    i don't watch much else, unless I'm bored and not in the mood to read.
