TV Zulu are going to air all 202 X-files over the next 101 weeks. They even send Twin Peaks just after in the first 30 weeks.
Guess that my HDD dvd will be busy.

While it's not a vital tool by any means, there is some quality entertainment you're missing by not owning a television. Most of what's on TV is crap, of course, but most of everything is crap anyways. Regardless, there are a few gems.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Over time, you get accustomed to not having these (very) few gems available to you. And you find other means of following events of particular interest, such as general elections, sporting events and the occasional public event that holds any real interest to you.
For the first six months or so after giving up TV, back in 2003, I would occasionally think about missing out on a national football team match or some movie that I heard was on and would have wanted to see. But then it subsided, quite rapidly, to the point where I wouldn't even think along those lines anymore.
Some of the topics and items that are covered by TV are worthwhile, of course, but once you realise that you really can't stand the way in which they're covered, the whole TV 'foundation' of today as it were, it's not a hard choice to make at all. And then, you get to be your own master and seek out in other ways the things that really interest you, and spend more time enjoying those in earnest and in precisely the format that you want.Comment
