For the Love and Hate of Television - Jeb Brumley

I do not watch television very often because I do not always enjoy it and it can become a huge distraction for me. I find there to be way to many commercials and only a couple of shows I like. Almost every time I watch television it is to watch a sporting event, like the NCAA basketball tournament, a golf tournament, or just a random football game. I believe that television does provide good entertainment to a wide variety of people, but I also believe that some advertisers abuse television by paying to have their commercial aired an unreasonable amount of times. Television can often be inane, for example, I know several people who occasionally binge watch Netflix and watch multiple seasons of television shows in a short period of time. One reason I do not watch much television is because it quickly becomes a huge waste of time and makes me lose track of time.
