	He doesn't like to watch - Salon
		It's TV Turnoff Week, and its mastermind explains why thousands of culture jammers might be disrupting a sports bar near you.
		The TV Turnoff Network, a Washington group that promotes TV Turnoff Week mostly in schools, estimates that 7.6 million people participated in the campaign last year.
		But I was at the airport the other day, and there was a big TV set that a number of people were watching, and for some reason I didn't want to switch it off because it was some nature show.

	TV Week - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		TV WEEK expanded publication as television launched in other capital cities and regional areas across Australia.
		The revamped publication continued to be known as TV WEEK and was now a joint venture between Kerry Packer's Australian Consolidated Press (who had bought out the former TV Times from the ABC) and Southdown Press (later Pacific Publications), with the latter publishing the magazine on behalf of both parties.
		TV Week is also a weekly TV listings magazine in the Vancouver, British Columbia region in Canada.

	TV Week
		In the case of "The Office," the series was one of 12 NBC Universal shows that have been available since NBC struck a deal with with Apple in early December.
		Then on Jan. 5, the prime-time series moved to Thursday nights and delivered a 4.5 in adults 18 to 49, then its highest rating ever for a regular slotted telecast, which was bested last week with a 5.1 in the demo.
		While syndication of "The Office" is some time off, if iTunes continues to deliver new audiences into the show's network run and keep the ratings up, NBC may be in a better position to take "The Office" into syndication once it has the requisite number of episodes under its belt.

	Nostalgic Rumblings » TV-Turnoff Week…What a Waste
		I would be much more impressed if your daughter chose not to watch TV because you taught her to have a greater interest in art, music, writing, or something productive, than if she only watches as much TV as her ‘enforcers’ allow.
		So TV Turn-off week is meant to make people realize how much they watch, and the things they are missing by watching a lot of it.
		We have raised 3 kids in a TV free household, (with the exception of the occasional movie), and they are now 21, 19 and 17 and are all fairly well adjusted young adults.

	TV Turnoff Week (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		For those of you who haven't yet heard, this week is TV Turnoff Week.
		They say that TV is addictive, that it's the root cause of everything from obesity to heart disease to a decline in conversational English.
		If the focus of TV Turnoff Week is to rid ourselves of some sort of evil influence in our lives, it's an effort which deserves precious little of our serious time and attention.

		Most of TV can be absorbed with a few years of solid viewing untill it begins to repeat and the only diffrence is one of derivitive nature, the medium has limitations.
		It isn't TV that's bad, it's an excess of low grade entertainment that is. This should be "Trash turnoff week", not "TV turnoff week", but that wouldn't support the anti-corporate agenda vibes I'm feeling from the adbusters site in general.
		TV "rots your brain, and there is nothing you can do about it, short of never watching it again", seemed so self-righteous to me. But that's the response I essentially got from both my parents.

		That's the idea behind TV-Turnoff Week, which for the 11th year is inviting everyone to "Turn off TV, turn on life." From Monday (April 25) through May 1, you can join as many as eight million other viewers in pulling the plug on TV, the Internet and video games.
		Vespe's organization argues against TV as the culture's default mode, challenging the ever-more-entrenched assumption that illuminated screens should always be within sight.
		With that in mind, TV-Turnoff Network fights two different battles: In the home, where TV, whatever the dosage, is self-administered; and in the rest of the world, where TV is a forced-fed intravenous drip.

	Girl Power! Celebrate National TV-Turnoff Week!
		TV-Turnoff Week was started in 1994 by a nonprofit group called TV-Turnoff Network, which believed that we all can determine the role the media has in our lives.
		We don't normally see the same amount or kind of violence in real life as we do on TV, but if we start to believe that what we see on TV is real, we might believe that there is a lot of violence in the world.
		The people we see on TV often lead unrealistic lives; for instance, the clothes they wear always match, their hair is never messed up, and they wear a lot of makeup so they look like they don't have any blemishes.

	TV Turnoff Week April 21-27, 2003 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		TV causes delayed acquisition of speech in very young children and is being studied for possible links to attention deficit disorder - a condition which has spread widely since the introduction of television into British homes.
		I pledge to stop watching television for the week of April 21-27, 2003 and find out how much more there is to real life.
		The idea was taken up in earnest by the non-profit group TV Free America, and made an international event by the Media Foundation in Vancouver (publishers of Adbusters magazine), the Society for Ecology and Culture in Bhutan and Ladakh, and by White Dot in Great Britain.

		However, TV is far too addictive to keep in my home so I stopped my cable subscription in 1995.
		The only time I ever view commercial TV is when I travel and even then I rarely turn on the TV.
		My recommendation is to minimize the TV to no more than a few hours per WEEK, as short attention spans are only the beginning of the problem with TV.

		National TV-Turnoff Week is the first nationwide effort which targets the medium of television and asks that people reassess the role TV plays in their daily lives as entertainer, pacifier, babysitter, time filler and background noise.
		A multi-day TV "fast" allows sufficient time for the development of habits likely to be more productive and rewarding.
		By going without television for a week, people will learn a great deal about their television habits and will likely be more critical viewers if and when they decide to return to the tube.

	Group Seeks A "TV Free" Week
		The goal of this week is to get people to turn off their television sets for one week and do something else.
		As National Turn Off TV Week is coming upon us again (April 23 - 29) I am "rerunning" my column from last year as my opinions on the subject have not changed.
		Instead, I believe TV-Free America should concentrate their efforts on teaching adults and children alike how to watch television in moderation, how to make informed choices, and how television can be made beneficial by watching it together as a family.

		And, as with the TV guide in the newspaper, I guess there is no TV after midnight, as that's when the grid stops.

	Turn the TV Off! - Keep Kids Healthy
		Children who watch TV a lot or who simply live in a home where the TV is always on, have also been shown to be more likely to have lower reading skills than children who don't watch as much TV.
		If you replace the three hours of TV that the average child watches with other family activities, like going for a walk, reading books, and playing games, etc., everyone will be better off.
		Although there is still controversy about the link between watching TV and a child later developing ADHD and some of the other possible negative effects, it should be clear that limiting your child's TV viewing is not going to be harmful.

	Karen Hunter \| Reader Representative: TV Week Changes
		The majority of e-mails that came in while I was off were from readers complaining about the changes to TV Week.
		The size is inconvenient, and the lack of a section listing movies by date and time -- and describing them -- makes TV Week virtually worthless to me. I tried registering this complaint by logging onto www.courant.com but I could not find the comment form that was mentioned on page 2 of TV Week.
		I couldn't care less about TV listings when there are homeless people starving on the streets of the wealthiest State in the wealthiest Country in the world.

		The greatest enthusiasm for the week of TV abstinence came from kids.
		One school class made up a slogan: "What I can be if I don't watch TV." Comment cards filled out by teachers, students, and parents after the week was over showed clearly how TV eats into the lives of children.
