How Many TVs Do You Have?
 

How many TV's do you own? What sizes are they? How often do you use them?

Interesting. I have 3 TVs in my home. I one in the bedroom 27" , two in the living room 36" and 19", one for sofa watching and the other for Xbox playing. The bedroom one doesn't get much use, maybe a bit before going to bed. The living room hasn't gotten much use since we started raiding in World of Warcraft. The Xbox one is lucky to have been used a few times, in fact it was orginally bought for Playstation.

Let's see 27" in spare bedroom, 32" in bedroom, 62" hd in living room. We hardly even use them. what a waste of my money.

32' in the bedroom that is also my computer screen, then another in the living room and I am not sure of the size. We barely use the one in the living room and the one in the bedroom is mainly used for the computer.

None. My roomates have one that they use as a computer monitor in the living room. 25" or so.

Let's see...1 in family room, 1 in den, 2 in my brother's room, and 1 in my step-brother's room.

Now...count the number of computers in the house and you'll be amazed!

1 in the family room that gets used roughly 3 hour a week.

One in the living room 27" one in the bed room 20" They both get used daily most of the time...we have it on afternoon/early evening...even if Im not watching anything its on a satellite cd channel, usually new age or moodscapes. Then when we go to bed we usually watch tv for a little while before we go to sleep

Holy poop! We have 1 TV for the four of us. My kids have watched about 45 minutes of TV so far this week.

We have 2. I'm not sure of the size. The one in the living room is for cable, movies, and N64. The one in the second room is only for the PS2.

We used to have 3 tvs. But we had 3 people in the house so it made sense if we wanted to watch different shows or play different games.

My parents are the insane people. Only 2 of them and 5 television sets. I don't know why, but they do. And those are the only ones that they have hooked up. I think they have at least 3 that are sitting in their basement from old ones that were there when I still lived in the house.

I've thought of going without TV, but in the Chicago winter, it's a bit crazy not to have one.

Oh, I forgot to mention that we do have a little B/W tv that we don't use. :lol:

1 Tv for the two of us

However, we have THREE computers, all desktops, and almost enough spare parts to make a fourth. :D

Yar! an interesting question.

We have:
a 32" in the living room.
a 13" in the bedroom. Both with DVD players.
and a TV tuner on my dual-screen equipped PC in the computer room.

If I had the extra cash to waste, there'd be one of those spiffy flip down LDC TVs in the kitchen w/DVD player. Then I could have the cooking show or game on while cooking. That'd be marvvy.

w0-0t there's TV.

Two.
A 32 inch HDTV in the living room and a 13 incher in the bedroom that I havent turned on in a couple of months. Come to think of it I should probably cancel the DirecTV receiver I'm paying five bucks a month for on that tv.

We have one 20" tele in the living room.

1
we use is as a dvd screen.
i dont watch tv.
too much nothing.
on the other hand, i watch and often enjoy tv series on dvd...maybe it's the lack of commercials? maybe it's the lack of everything else, i dont know.

tv is for hotels, which are basically tv watching stations.

Zero. I do have 2 computers though.

I watch more TV now than I ever did in the past, and that's through my netflix account.

27" in living room strictly for movies. 19" in the spare bedroom strictly for video games.

NONE OF THEM GET TV CHANNELS AND THEY HAVENT FOR 12 YEARS!

For a while my family had 5 TV's for 4 people. One in my room, one in my sister's, one in my parents, one in the family room, and one in the game room where we have the pool table.

Right now they have 2 for 2 people (Living room and parent's room).

I now have 0 TV's in my dorm and I'm a-ok with that.

One, and I don't anticipate that changing anytime in the near or distant future. If I'm doing chores or something, I listen to music instead of watching TV.

We have two tvs, but one of them hasn't been turned on in over a year. We use our primary TV to watch DVDs and recorded programs.

2. A small one in my dad's room and a medium sized one in the basement.

3 people in the house.

We have 4 people, 4 tv's. The one downstairs is 38" flat screen that we use mainly for movies. I think the one in the upstairs living room is about 27", it is old but gets used the most, on the average about 3 hours a day. My son has a 13" tv with the vcr in it. and my daughter has our old tv, not sure the size, that gets used rarely. All 4 tv's are never on at the same time, at most is 2.

I try to limit tv time, no set amount, I just don't want the kids watching it all day long. That is easier now that school has started.

I have one tv. A Phillips 42 inch widescreen hd plasma tv that is used for the ps2, x-box 360 and watching various tv shows and movies.

I also have a 20 inch Acer widescreen LCD monitor for my computer in my office, but I don't watch tv with this one.

Four, a 60" HD (Sony LCOS) in the family room for home theater stuff, a 42" plasma in our bedroom, another 42" plasma in Sissy's room, and a 26" LCD in the kitchen. I can also use the computer monitor (23") to watch tv or DVD's when I get the notion. No TV in the formal living room.

Three people in the home, so we're at 4/3 if you don't count the monitor.

Currently I don't have a TV.

In Toronto, I have three. I have a small one in the bedroom (no smartass comments on that one), a small one in the kitchen and a mid-sized on in the basement.

The basement is the domain of my son and I rarely watch TV down there. He mostly uses it for his Xbox.

A big part of my job is watching TV so I need to get a TV soon and will as soon as I've moved into a new place.

We have four TV's and three people; until February when we're due to add another person. :D

Mostly we watch the Main one in the family room - in the evening to relax after our son has gone to bed. Sometimes we'll have the news or The Simpsons on before dinner, but not very often.

We have a smaller set in the bedroom that we basically only watch on um, special occasons. We have another small set from when I was keeping an apartment for an out of town job. It's in the basement in our work area. My wife will watch it when sewing, for example.

Finally, we have a tiny black and white aerial/radio set in the Kitchen. Sometimes we'll have the news on while preparing dinner, though we're more likely to use the radio part.

We're very good about keeping it off outside of the evening, but we're pretty addicted during that time. I actually credit TFP for pulling me away over the past couple of years. There are worse vices.

3 TVs, 3 people and a great dog....of course people visit so often that it seems like more.

1) 20" Sony in the guest bedroom. Never used.
2) 40" Samsung HDTV LCD in the living room. Watched for movies and occasionally TV. Great picture. Nice too look at while off, too.
3) 30" Samsung Widescreen HDTV in the bedroom. Love this TV. HDDVD, PS2, Samsung home theater system, and even a VCR. This is where I watch my Battlestar Galactica.

roach, if you get some free time on Fridays this fall I would reccomend Battlestar Galactica. Most stuff on TV is tripe, espically to a learned person such as yourself, but it has won a Hugo and Peabody award. I think it's quite good.

seems like a few ppl said this too. i'll buy one off of you! ahaha. even a 27 is better than what i have right now.

we only have 1 19inch sanyo that is about 10years old from the look of the remote. so 1 tv for 2 ppl.

at my parents house, it's 2 tv for 4 ppl. it used to be 1 for 5 up to 1992-4 not sure. then 2, then in 97-98, came up to 3. then the awesome tv i had for 20years finaly died sometimes in 2000.

but i use them almost only for movies and very little ps2. when it's TV, it's because my gf is watching it.

Downstairs there's a 61" RCA Low-Def tv in the living room, and a 110" Hitachi Projector that pulls down over it for those movies and Xbox 360 games that require the theater experience. There a 32" TV in my room that used to only play PS2 games but for the last 6 months it's played nothing but Sirius radio. Upstairs there's another 61" RCA that's identical to the other. There's a 19" with a dvd in the upstair's kitchen and another in my parent's bedroom.

So thats.. 6tvs / 5ppl

One large Widescreen in the Living Room.

One small portable in the bedroom.

We have 2 and a half people in our house (my daughter lives in two houses).

None. I'm at college.

With YouTube and Google Video (erm, not to mention classes, work, and a life), I really don't need one in my position.

1 tv for the living room - kind of a group tv when friends/family are over. 1 tv in the bedroom, because i just can't resist curling up in bed to watch a good movie. :)

We have a 27" in the living room, a 19" in our bedroom, and a 14" in our daughters' room. If you count my computer with a TV tuner card, that's a 20" widescreen.

We have 3, but only two are in use - a 30 inch widescreen in the living room and a 27 inch crt in the bedroom. The other is in the basement and may come into play once I've finished the basement this fall.

There are 3 people in our household - my wife, my daughter and me.

Kids each have their own, there's one in the den and a small black and white one in my car. There's a 13 inch we don't use any more. So, 4 active tv's, four people.

For a while, we had TVs coming out of our ears. I had 1 small one and one 27" that we used as the communal TV at my last place. He had a small one and a 27" they were using as a communal TV when I moved in. So when we moved here we had 4 TVs between the two of us.

With our roommates included, we have a 32" downstairs in the living room, a 27" in the kitchen, a 27" in the garage waiting to be moved upstairs to our room, a small one in our room at the moment, a small one in storage, and one of our roommates has a TV in his room. So that's 6 total for 4 people, but only three of them actually get any use--the two in bedrooms and the one in the living room. The one in the kitchen doesn't have cable yet.

Growing up we had a TV for every person in our house, but I never turned mine on. I was much more interested in my stereo.

2 tv's and 2 of us.

3 People in the house.

2 Tvs in my room (25" and 17" - normally I leave the 25" one here when I go to uni however while home there are two).
1 Tv in the living room (28")
1 Tv upstairs (20"+)
2 Tv in the projection room (20"+ unused and 400" or so via the projector)
1 Tv in the kitchen (17")

I guess I fail this test... though the tvs are actually rarely used, mostly as displays for consoles or additional PC screens.

Two of us with three sets. A 42" in the main viewing area, a 32 in the master bedroom and a 27 in the guest room. That last one only gets used when we have company. It was a leftover when we purchased a newer set. No sense in selling it for pennies on the dollar when it can be around for guests! I also have one in my office - not a home office.

Well, I have one. In the living room. 27" HD LCD. Just me in the house. Back when I was married, my wife wanted to get a second TV for the bed room. It was a pretty firm no from me at the time. But, I guess I've relaxed a bit on TV behavior since then. If there's more than one person in the house, they may not want to watch the same program every single night.

Still, I'm not one to leave the TV on for background noise. A person I know at work says her son can *not* sleep unless the TV is on. My answer to that would be, "I guess you won't be sleeping then, TV off".

Ok, I just saw this! Funny!

This is pretty much me, right there.

I've always had my own tv, but i've never had so much as an antenna hooked up to it, let alone cable. I just watch my movies on it. And like roachboy said, I also enjoy a FEW tv series that I now own on DVD and will watch. That's only because someone told me a show was good, so I downloaded an episode or two... I liked it, I downloaded more, and watched them all. Then, when the DVD was available, I bought it and erased the files.

Really though, people just have so many living spaces now, and it's not like TV's are massively expensive. They're also a part of furniture- I mean, many TV's now are bought with the intention of designing/getting an entire structure of furniture/home theater center/stand/whatever to match and compliment them.

This is not all that surprising, really.

I mean, my parents have 3 in the house. There's one in the living room, one in the den/study/whatever we're calling it this week, and there's one in the bedroom. Really, the one in the study almost never gets used unless someone is watching something in the living room and someone else wants to watch something different- but that's for those people who watch TV.

TV has too few interesting shows to even make me consider caring about watching. I'll watch the good ones on the internet and then buy the DVD set if I liked it, so I can watch it more in the future.
