How often do you watch tv?

First topic message reminder :

Just as the title says, how do you watch tv? I mean really sit down and watch tv? Everyday? Every other day? Once a week? Twice a week? Every other week? Once or twice a month? When you sit down and genuinely watch tv, what do you watch? Sports? A tv show, numerous tv shows? Movies? What?


Feel free to tell us all these and whatever else related to this subject you want to discuss, in this topic.

those last two probably don;t have as much issues with copyright as youtube does

I dont think so either. I dont think Putlocker has the movies directly on their own servers , they simply embed movies from other free to view sources and put them up. Thus, by doing so they techinically not liable for copyright infringement as the movies are not on their server and were not uploaded by them. Kind of work around if you may say.

it is still an issue, but i think that putlocker and that other one must have paid a royalty or something to get around the copyrights

I dont know what Showbox does to get their movies and shows and if it is done legally or not. I hope it is though.

I am pretty sure putlocker is using the royal work around of taking advantage of other free movie sites and simply embedding those movies that hosted on those sites on to their site.

I believe this, because on the botton of every page of the site and movie there a disclaimer saying how the movies are arent hosted on Putlockers server or on any server affilated with them and that any therefore any legal issues with any of the movies or shows on the site should be taken up with the owner of the server that it is hosted on. That said, I think they use a work around to avoid legal issues by embedding off of other sites.

then the best guess is the royalties thing

I do watch a lot of TV. I mostly record my favorite TV shows and watch them when I can. But I got to save some for when I have some time to watch them too

I am sure I have said this here at some point. I will say it again anyway; I do not watch much tv these, mainly just the weather channel and amc for walking dead.

it helps to pass the time sometimes

I agree with you Charlie. It does help to pass the time. You can watch a lot of shows and it does take up most of your day. I do have a lot of shows to watch. I just watch as many as I can. Then I can save others to watch when I get a chance to

I really only watch tv for real once a week for walking dead. Other times my tv is tuned into weather channel, but I never really pay much attention to what is on.

depends really on what the show is

I do watch The Weather Network. I do like to see what is weather is doing along with what the weather is doing around the world too. I do like to my favorite shows. I do mostly record them and watch them when I can. I do rarely watch live TV just some times

I used to watch tv a lot but have been trying to cut down as I have my computer and YouTube to use for entertainment purposes.

I must admit that I don't watch it much either anymore.

I mainly only watch TV to watch The Walking Dead and Fear The Walking Dead.

The rest of the shows I watch, I watch on Hulu or Netflix.

Well I do have a PVR which I can record shows or movies or games to watch when ever I can get some time to watch them. I don't usually watch actual live TV too often just some times. I do agree with Arthur I like to watch music videos on YouTube to be entertained if I don't feel like watching TV. Anyways I mostly watch record shows on PVR since that what I usually do then I don't have to see any commericals since I can fast forward past all of them

Do you mean a DVR?

Yes that is what I meant to say. Not sure if it is PVR or DVR. But it records the shows I want to watch on TV. It is only two shows at one time. But it works for me. The rare time I do watch live TV but not too often since I got to mute the commericals or just pause live TV then I can fast forward through all of the commericals

I mean it's possible that they call it PVR there in Canada, but here in the states it is called DVR.

Anyway DVR is a cool thing to have if you can afford it. I personally do not have it, but I can watch all my favorite shows either on Hulu or Netflix if I miss an episode anyway.

Well I can afford it since it is hard to watch all of my favorite shows when I am not there to watch them or away to see my family. It also works out since it can record things when I am sleeping too. Then I can just watch them when I have some time to. I know some people got Netflix they can watch any shows they want on there. But it works for me since I do like watch TV shows, movies, and sports

Agreed Josh, those for me personally, my tv is used only to watch new episodes of Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead on Sunday nights, other then that I watch all the shows I watch on either Netflix or Hulu.

the only time i watch TV at the moment is for fear the walking dead other then that i don't really watch it much show i'm really getting into at the moment is the walking dead i'm watching that on netflix so i can catch up before season 10

Speaking of FTWD, it returns from Mid season break this Sunday. Can't wait!

I do not watch this show but I have watched the pilot of its spin-off program. I always try and tune in to PBS for its Saturday Night Britcoms though.
