I guess I didn't realize that saying "I don't watch TV" sounded arrogant... but I see what you mean when you give the alternative. Maybe it really is just a conversation killer. I'll try to tone it down a bit next time this happens and see if there's a different reaction.

I just wish I didn't have to have these conversations in the first place... but that's just me being ornery.
