Before deciding whether watching television is a waste of time, it is important to look at both sides of the argument.
There are many good things about television. There are shows that give us information for improving our houses such as '' Better Homes and Gardens". Another thing is that television is instructive because of the news. Another things is shows such as " A Current Affair" and Sixty Minutes''. They give us good information about what is going on in the world. Another thing to support the view that television is not a waste of time is Channel 2. It has lots of educational programs. Another thing is shows such as " Play School " and " Sesame Street" that help teach the children how to to count and read. Another thing is that Professor Smith said television has helped us to learn more about the world than any other invention.
There are reasons for saying watching television is a waste of time. Professor Nguyen has said that if people read as much as they watch television, they would learn ten times as much. Another thing is that watching television makes us lazy. When we are sitting watching television we are not doing anything useful. Another things is the hopeless shows on television such as " Melrose Place " and Baywatch". These teach us nothing and just waste our time.
It can be seen that there are two sides to this discussion. After looking at both, I think watching television is not a waste of time.
