No TV Week

Unplugging the Plug-In Drug: the “No TV Week” Guide
Winn
1987

This isn’t a bad idea for a book in a public library. It just needs to be updated. Winn gives advice on how to quit a TV addiction, since it robs you of time you could spend relating to people. That’s fine, but these days you should probably add cell phones, laptops, mp3 players, eReaders…pretty much any gadget that people entertain themselves with rather than talk to others.

Hear that, Mary? No more “Ancient Aliens” for you for a WHOLE WEEK! And you can’t DVR it, either. Or watch it online. Or put it in your Netflix queue.

Now, leave me alone. Iron Chef is on.
