Sunday November 2, 2008

3. Sundays are usually pretty typical days for me to watch television because I make it a priority to be around the house on that day and this includes watching some TV. I defiantly watch more TV on Sundays than I do on any other day. There are really not any shows I am a regular viewer of on Sundays it is just what ever is on I tune into, such as football and for some strange reason I always seem to watch meet the press in the morning when I am eating some breakfast before church. It is a convenient show that is always on and it actually is quite interesting, since it always is about what is going on in the country. And football is always a great relaxer to lie on the couch to, except lately I have been getting mad since the cowboys have sucked. There was a show that I never really watch which was, “The Today Show”. I normally am up later than when this show comes on but since it was daylight savings time I woke up earlier than normal. I watch it during the week on occasion and I love it, I love the recipes and great random helpful tips it gives. I did miss one of my all time favorite shows, which is Extreme Home Makeover, but I miss it every Sunday due to young life leadership, and I always seem to forget to record it so I never end up getting to watch it!

4. None of these questions asked apply to my television watching. I hardly ever watch television on the internet and I was not in a restaurant on this day to have any TV watching done there. Oh yes, but my mom was watching the news that night with me and the meet the press that morning. And the football game in the middle of the day I watched with both of my parents. Honestly I do not think that this journal is a good way to keep track of television watching for individuals because it does not cover the channel surfing, or recorded shows or watching a DVD or something that has been recorded. This journal is a very difficult way of tracking what has been watched that day or week, since it only has certain time slots, certain people, one spot for a channel and time and so forth. It simply does not seem reliable what so ever to what people are really watching.
