I wouldn't say I'm a TV addict, but rather a video addict. I'm sure there are those of you out there who are still primarily watching TV on a TV, but nowadays very little of my watching comes from there. Of course, I download and stream shows from the internet, but much of my video watching also comes from web series' and YouTube.
Sometimes the content is really good, sometimes not. That's the problem with web content, there's really no quality control as anyone can put up something if they want. Something most web content has in common though is it is endlessly watchable and usually not very challenging. You can watch and not watch and never be confused about what's going on. There is so much content that you can very easily fall down a YouTube hole and end up watching junky web clips or shows for hours. Make no mistake, there is a lot of great Web series, channels, and shows. But I just want to stop watching dumb wastes of time, which is unfortunately most of what's out there.
I want to watch shows and content written by people, and enjoy them in moderation. That would be a lot more sensible to me than hours of binge watching fail videos on YouTube.
