If you have that on in the background you're still going to be processing some of it subconsciously. Turn off your TV, there's a reason it's called programming.

Yeah if it was down to me it would not be on but it is usually on in the background because my wife likes those old comedy show reruns like tooltime and the old gameshows but sooner or later its that time when Colbert or that other one ... Seth Myers comes on I can't stand either of them.

Change the channel to a nature/wildlife documentary. Much healthier.

I stopped watching TV in 2003? Around the time the first American Idol started. It was trash back then and is trash now.
