[Sundae]

I liked Jersey Shore.
I also like Big Brother and especially I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here... although like many people I watch primarily for Ant and Dec.

I also slavishly watch the Eurovision Song Contest.

However I watch no soap operas nor the X Factor or Strictly Come Dancing. I've even eshewed Britain's Got Talent since the change of judges.

In fact unless one of the above-mentioned reality series is on, I will watch less than 5 hours of TV a week. And that includes breakfast news as I sit and eat in the morning (once upstairs I switch to BBC Five Live on the radio).

All I am watching now is Misfits and Harry Hill's TV Burp.
Although there is a programme called My Child Is Not Perfect that I want to catch up on because one of the sections is about autism.

I can't see that using TV as relaxation is too damaging.
I've read some pretty dire books too.
