A New Addiction

Television has evolved over time into not only being a part of one's life, but being involved in every part of one's life. I too have succumbed to the powerful urge of television. Why do I watch television? I watch it to be informed along with entertained, although there are other ways to do such things. Television has become an addiction. We tell ourselves we have reasoning behind watching it, but the truth is that it is completely unneeded and is only a distraction in our already distracted lives. To be a tad more lighthearted, my favorite shows include SNL, The Daily Show, The Office, Modern Family, 30 Rock, and The Walking Dead. Though these shows are mainly for entertainment, SNL and The Daily Show are also informative by providing the news to the viewers in a comical way.
