I recently (1st December of this year) completed a project in which I logged how many hours of television I watched for a full year. This doesn't include films that I own a physical copy of or films viewed in theatres, however, it does include films on TV.
Whoever guesses closest wins a prize.

I'll say 950 hours.
It's not that I'm unforgiving, it's that most of the people who wrong me are unrepentant assholes.

Ok the international average for weekly t.v veiwing is 16.6 hours.
that times 52 (weeks in a year) is 863.2 yearly.
This number is higher if you live in the UK (936) or US (988)
So I'm guessing since you are posting something about it it has to be a bit higher that that...
without further ado...
1,050 hours.

I know. Whne I do get to watch t.v. it's C.S.I and Law and Order. Sometimes the news. Other than that. I really have no interest. Comes with not watching it I guess.

Yeah. I watch a few shows, but nowhere near religiously like some people do. When I watch television, it's usually various news programs or perhaps making fun of the guy from the 700 Club.Rukia wrote:Caz wrote:But it was very impressive math, sweetie!Rukia wrote:
