let's talk TV

tvtalk

we love television!

if you know jason, you know that to be an understatement. but, if you know me, that may sound a bit ironic because i have stated so many times that i don't really watch tv. and i don't. but, only because most times when i put a movie on, i get distracted by my computer/ my phone/ my kids/ good food/ or i just fall asleep. it's almost impossible for me to watch an entire movie, that i have never seen, the first time. probably not even the second time either. sometimes it takes 10 times for me to see a movie completely (3 or 4 times if it is a 30-60 minute tv show). 

we used to buy movies all the time. we have over 1,000 movies and tv shows on blu ray and dvd. but with the invention of redbox, on demand, dvr, netflix, hulu, and a couple other apps for iphone and ipad, i think we have only purchased 2 or 3 movies in the last year. it really isn't necessary anymore. 

i am most certain i could not live without a tv. in fact, at least one of our televisions is on 24/7. we even sleep with the tv on in our bedroom. 

we love tv so much, i thought i would make an effort to talk tv a little each week. i was a little hesitant at first because this isn't something i usually write about here on my blog. however, i feel like i am in a rut around here. and besides...this is my blog, it's a new year, and i think it's time for changes. 

are you excited? i am. 

i would love for you to join me by sharing your stories, favorites, and recommendations in the comments each week (mondays). 

until then, check out some of the stuff i have waiting for us on the dvr...

these are some movies we haven't seen yet, let me know what you think if you have already seen any of them.

side note: just because we have TV on in our home a lot does not indicate the amount of TV we actually watch. it is actually a rule in our home that our children don't watch TV monday-thursday during the school year and we spend a lot of time doing many other things besides watching TV.
