It's TV-Turnoff Week. This is the 10th anniversary of Turn Off TV Week, begun in 1994 as a statement against "the dead end couch culture." We're encouraged to turn off our TV for the entire week to "reclaim time to talk, play, read, exercise, create, dream -- and live".
Last night I taped three programs while I watched the Leafs game. I taped "The Simpsons", "The Sopranos" and "Deadwood". I fully intend to unwind over the next few nights by watching these shows as I really don't watch much else during the week. Then tomorrow night, there's literally nothing that could keep me away from the boob tube for game seven of the Maple Leafs - Senators series. Then, if all goes well, there will be round two games later in the week.
Other than that, I'm a full participant in TV-Turnoff Week.
