It's not so hard for me to believe. These days I rather surf the net (guilty), read or just so many other stuff to do. The only shows I would really watch are cooking programmes. Finding it restless to sit through TV series/movies (except in the cinema) - so I rather rent the series or movie so I could control my time, heh.
