I read 2-3 books a week.
I don't own a TV. Nor do I miss it.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Luddite; I love Films and Technology and the Internet, etc...
But very little on TV seems worthwhile to me (Other than the Ads, which can contain amazing artistry, IMHO) And, if it IS an outstanding TV event, I will usually hear about it thru the grapevine. (For example, I loved Serenity)
The downside is that people treat you like you have leprosy when you have nothing to add to their discussion regarding the latest Cop Show/Reality Show/Hospital Drama/Sit Com.
I highly recommend trading off as much TV time as you can stand to dive into a good book!
(Stepping off soapbox now!)

I carry a book with me, so when I'm stuck in line or waiting somewhere, i read inbetween. If I have some downtime, I'll read with a cup of coffee or during a lunchbreak (if I happen to be alone).

I take a book with me everywhere, so when I am stuck waiting in line I can read. I read during commericals if I am watching TV.

Maybe in your car on your way to work you can listen to books on cd's. But if you want to do the real reading maybe during breakfast or your lunch.

I read on the toilet which gives me about four hours a day to catch up on reading.
