What do you like watching on television ? Do you think it makes people more intelligent ? Do you think it is relaxing ? Any comment ?

Hi Muriel,

I don't watch TV much.
At least every year my quadruple-play provider, in agreement with Canal+, gives me a full week of free access to the programs of Canal+
A week after the end, I receive a phone call from a salesperson expecting my subscription... every year I take a wicked delight in erasing the joyful tone of my correspondant when I respond that no, I didn't watch anything in the week and I'm not interested in sport (I prefer to practice instead of watching), in their films or watever.

I appreciate games like "Qui veut prendre sa place" or "Questions pour un champion" but mainly to learn about the skills of the emcees.
I also appreciate reports around culture (history, geography) and economical or political talk shows.
I very rarely Watch films unless it's an old and famous one.
Don't count on me to Watch soaps.

Sometimes my TV set is on but I'm using my laptop without paying much attention.

Gerard,with your laptop you are much more active

For sure... and productive!
