I remember when we only had one and it was a lot more entertaining than 250 today or maybe we were easier to entertain. I remember having too much to do to have time to watch the one channel.
My kids have virtually no time to watch tv. Between softball, riding bikes, swimming and playing at the neighborhood park, they spend very little time in front of the tube. I, on the other hand, love watching Discovery HD, History Channel HD, and movies on demand after the kids go to bed. I grew up in the 70s and lived in the sticks, so we only got one channel. While we all feel nostalgic, if someone plopped a 1975 19 inch Zenith in my living room with one channel, I sincerely doubt I'd stay nostalgic for long. :)

If I had everything that went with the good ole days I wouldn't miss TV.
The most boring person I know plans her life around the TV programming. I bet she hasn't read a book in years! Stays home in front of the tube day in, day out!
