We've only got one TV in the basement playroom, but my husband is working down there so I can't watch any TV!
I haven't wished for a TV in the bedroom in a really long time, but today, I would have loved it. Do you have a TV in your bedroom?

Yes! I love watching tv in bed and DH hates it so it works out in my favor
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
no, the only time i've ever used it is when i was on maternity leave b/c i'd co-sleep in the morning and cosleep with E and watch Tv
hostess / wonderful watermelon / 39513 posts
Yes, since last summer when we got a new tv for the living room. We don't use it a lot!

We do.
I was very against the idea at first. I never grew up with that and when I lived on my own I didn't have one in my room.
While DH and I dated, he always had one in the room and I did grow to enjoy it. I've read a lot of articles about how it's not healthy, but I still like it now (and I don't think DH would let me get rid of it! )

Yes, although it barely gets used. Just when we are watching a show together or cannot sleep.
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
Yep! Watch it every night. DH cuddles with R in the morning, when I leave for work and they watch Disney Jr together before breakfast.

Yes, we do. DH often goes to bed later than I do or sleeps in the guest room because I don't sleep well, so I'll watch something like Friends on repeat when I can't sleep. Some nights we watch a show together before going to sleep.

No, the only time I broke that rule is when we lived in a 1 bedroom and I firmly believe that having 2 tvs makes for a happy couple. But once we moved to a house, the tv stayed out of the bedroom.

We don't, but we will probably add one in the next few years. We want one - just waiting to actually go buy one (it takes DH years to finally agree on big purchases. We've been couch shopping for 4 years!)
nectarine / 2834 posts
Yes, we do. However, I never had one in my room growing up and will probably have the same policy with my kids.

We have 2 TVs (one living room, one basement) so there's really no need for a 3rd. We both agree to keep the bedroom for sleeping!

We have 3 TVs. One in our lower level living room (main living area) one in main level living room (can't remember the last time it was on. Months at least) and one in our bedroom. I like having it in there although we don't use it a ton. Sometimes if I have like 4 baskets of laundry I'll turn it on. Or if we have guests and want to "go to bed" but aren't ready for sleep. Or sometimes if my husband is watching sports I'll hang out in there. Not sure why but I prefer lounging in our bedroom to our second living room.

Yes, I was so against it for awhile, but I really like watching TV curled up in bed.

no. we lived in a tiny 1-bedroom to start where a tv wouldn't have fit in the bedroom and it seemed silly to have 2 tvs in about 500 sq ft of living space, and since then i haven't missed it.

We have a TV in our bedroom, but it's not used too much. Watching TV in bed is uncomfortable.
GOLD / watermelon / 14076 posts
We do, but we rarely use it. I love it for when I'm home sick, though!
grapefruit / 4355 posts
No - and I would be very against DH trying to put one there. The bedroom just doesn't feel right for TV watching for me.
We do have 2 TVs though - one in the living room and one in the basement.
grapefruit / 4085 posts
I was against it at first but now I like it. For me, it helps that it's hidden in an armoire.

we have an embarrassing number of tvs in our house so the one in the bedroom doesn't get used all that much. only when i'm home sick or when i'm having a really lazy Sunday and DH is at work. i had a tv in my bedroom growing up and i will DEFINITELY not allow that when our kids arrive.
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
No, but I want one before maternity leave. I want to be able to watch Netflix in bed!
persimmon / 1328 posts
We had one for years and barely ever used it, so when it broke we didn't bother to replace it!
honeydew / 7586 posts
We do! Every morning, the three of us lay in bed and watch a cartoon before we start out day. It's one of my favorite parts of the day.
grapefruit / 4903 posts
Nope. It's not for us, and if I really NEEDED to watch something in bed (eg. on a sick day), I can watch Netflix on the iPad to suffice.
persimmon / 1404 posts
We have one. I have always had a TV in my bedroom and it has never really been an issue... although I would gladly get rid of it now. My husband always falls asleep with it on and it annoys me when I'm trying to sleep. I only ever watch it in there when I'm putting away laundry, cleaning or if I'm taking a while to get ready.
grapefruit / 4089 posts
We don't have one in there, but I watch Netflix on my tablet or laptop in bed all the time.
