Television!! Entertainment or way of life?

Television is not only today's entertainment but in lots of lives it has replaced many relationships, friends, and hobbies. It kinda qualifies for spending quality time with people now too we just invite them over to watch tv with us. I have been invited to watch tv with friends who miss spending time with me many times. We hang out and just watch some good ol' tv together. Ofcourse television like everything in the world has its advantages and disadvantages. For people who are introverted and loners its good because they don't have to socialize with anyone while watching. Television is something most people who don't like being alone can even do alone without being bothered. For people who have a hard time making friends or getting along with people its great too because the tv doesn't ever insult you or hurt your feelings and or if it does you just change the channel which is totally something you can't do to a friend which all of us at some point wished we could. Television has something for everyone for the "social people" it has many sitcoms and different shows and movies, for the "nerds and geeks" that want to watch something they can learn from there are a lot of educational channels both historical and modern and for the "hands on" type of people there are tons of things they can learn to do such as new recipies or home improvement shows and learn how to build things. And for the fashion lovers ofcourse television is the most fabulous place to learn the latest fashion. We can eat while watching tv we can relax while watching tv and we can entertain others while watching tv. Television can give us many different emotions we can watch things that make us happy , sad, excited, scared or whatever emotion we feel like having..thats the type of program we can watch. Lots of times we take the advice and information we learn from the television programs and use it in our everyday lives so who says television can't be educational?! It sure can!! There is something for everyone! Here is something to think about Is television our new best friend? Sometimes I think its mine ;) LOL!
