Up until now, the only TV I’ve owned is a 13-inch Sony Trinitron WEGA I picked up after college. The screen on my laptop is bigger than my television screen. As of this weekend, I am retiring my TV in preparing to move on up to my deluxe apartment in the sky. Ok, it’s not a deluxe apartment and it’s not in the sky, but I will be joining the one percent of American households that do not own at least one television. This should be an interesting experiment — I really wonder how long I can go without it. This coming from me, who is referencing the opening theme to the Jeffersons.
Before I bid farewell to television and blogging about corny TV shows, I wanted to share a clip of the opening titles for one of the pilot episodes of Three’s Company.
Ah…much better! Next time I am in Los Angeles, I’m totally going to the Los Angeles Zoo to get a picture of the white wall in the opening shot. By the way, did you ever notice that Jack, Janet, and {Chrissy, Cindy, Terry} didn’t have a television in apartment 201?
