There is a ton of amazing tv nowadays though. Most of the educational channels went to crap with pawn shops, honey boo boo, and the like...but scripted tv has never been remotely as good and there are newer channels like Smithsonian that have epic stuff on routinely. But if I do pry myself off the couch, and actually get up and do things, there are also a huge number of great podcasts and books that you can mainline directly into your brain, so you really are not missing that much. : )
