Almost all of my TV viewing involves the Discovery Channel, the History Channel, the Science Channel and similar cable stations.

I almost never watch the 3 networks. Their natioal news is slanted leftward, and most of their shows (sitcoms, “reality shows”) are aimed at people with room temperature IQs.

Same here, plus NFL football. I've about given up on History Channel - I liked it when they used to focus on history. Since they just cycle shows with Discovery Channel less than half the programming is history. Heck, they much air the show "Modern Marvels" about 20 times a day. I used to like it but now it's all that's ever on. Also, there has been very little new programming as of late. When they do have a history show on it's one you first saw five years ago and 100 times since.

Nine times out of ten I just decide to pick up a good book. (or fire up a quick game of Unreal Tournament)

The only network show I've watched for more than a couple minutes in the last oh, ten years or more, is "The Office" on NBC. Right now it's being struck so I watch nothing on the alphabet channels. at all. Except sports. Which is the norm.
