Didn't know that. But then again all I've watched this week is the Long Beach Grand Prix coverage on ESPN (helps to fill in the "information gaps" from trackside viewing so you know/understand the whole story later), Top Gear last night (which was flippin' hilarious) and probably won't watch anything again until Friday when BSG is on.

That's a pretty typical week for me. If there happens to be a Red Sox game on, I might watch that, or occasionally "Mad Money", but that's about it.

I just read that Millionaires don't sit and watch TV unless they happen to own the network. Might be a tip in there somewhere? Ha.

I'm sure PPOT is not much better, or even worse?

True. How long will it be before there is a Turn Off Your Internet week? lol. It's pretty much the same as TV.

Barcelona GP is this weekend. I'll catch that on Tivo whenever I can, which is pretty much what I usually do.

TV is 99% crap anyway. Dying medium.

95% of the TV I watch, I watch online at my convenience.

That's 100% for me, since I don't own a television. Right now, all I watch is Battlestar Galactica. In July, I'll start watching The Closer. I'd watch 2.5 Men if it were available, though.
