I enjoy the "What Are You Watching On The Box?" thread. I've picked up on a few shows/movies I want to watch. It has me wondering...how many TV's do you have?

We have two. A 50" that we watch daily and a 32" that sits in a spare bedroom.

We have a small tv in our bedroom that hasn’t been on for months and one in the main living area that is used daily

We have 2. Wife likes to use our 50” TV when I am gone working so we had a 8’ long cabinet made to hide it for when we use the projector.

The projector screen is 157”.

Whats a TV??

Seriously, we have two 32" (I think flat screens, but technically they belong to two of my children, and they sit in their rooms. Other than that we have computer screens.

There are 4 flatscreens, 2 desktops, 2 laptops, 3 notebooks and 4 smartphones in our house.

There are only 2 people. But one of us (swmbo) is pretty much set.

We have got 2 a 42 inch in the living room and a small portable for the kitchen, with the amount of rubbish on tv these days I won’t be having any soon.
 
We have three

  1. A big one in the living room (I think 63 inches) which is mostly monopolized by my eldest son in playing video games, and watching whatever he wants to watch
  2. One 43 inch in our bedroom- My wife or I used to watch it earlier, but it has not seen a lot of use for at least 1 year or so
  3. I bought another 43 inch for my office recently- Bittersweet decision as I can now smoke while I watch, but in general I try to avoid TV, and it is not helping. My wife would also watch my office TV sometimes, when I am not smoking.
And there are iPads and laptops. If someone in our household wants to watch, he/she is enabled

We have cut the cord years ago - It is Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime and YouTube.

I have a 70" Sharp Aquos in my living room, a 65" Aquos in my bedroom, a 55" Samsung in my caretaker's room and a 47" Vizio in my other bedroom.

All of my cable boxes are 1080p and that is a fiber connection. I really enjoy high end picture quality.

2 flat screens, one in my bedroom the other in my son's bedroom. Nothing particularly large or fancy. In addition there's the monitor at my computer, which is a Pro level calibratable NEC that I use for my work.

I remember the days when my wife and I would lay on the couch and watch absolutely stupid crap on TV for hours almost every evening. Then we had three kids, bought a property with endless projects, and didn't take the TV with us when we moved. It's been about 10 years now and I've never missed it for even a second.
We do have a laptop, an ipad, and the wife has a smartphone.

Not a one. If we want to watch a TV show we do so on a laptop. My wife and I have two young sons that keep us plenty busy so honestly don't watch much TV programming even on the laptop. We also don't want the boys to get too much screen time on TV, "smartphone" (my wife has one, my phone is an old Nokia), or computer.

Only one TV in full operation, hooked to cable with streaming capacity, and so on. It's a flat screen, not huge but ample, and it doesn't need a sound bar though they tried to sell me one as if it was required. Often, I'm turning it down, not up. I find myself escaping the TV more these days, to do necessary household things, or turning it off to read. My wife and I are both retired from journalism (my wife) and journalism related work, so we feel responsible to track current events, and we pick up on some entertainment that is worthwhile, but the tube can be a vampire of time and thought. Sometimes it is better to know what you might be thinking, or your spouse, rather than get pumped full of programmed material, even the select items that are thoughtfully done. Sometimes when I'm driving I turn off the sound system and the silence is music, the sound of the engine, the air rushing past.

If you change out 'two sons' for 'two daughters' and 'nokia' for 'old flip phone' this is more or less my answer too.
