No, it is not. It all depends on what you watch. There are a lot of great shows on-documentaries and medical shows and such. Like, there are "Animal Planet" and then you have Court T.V. and you hace The Learning Channel. You also have PBS and Channel13 with shows like "Charlie Rose" and "Nova".
There are a lot of programms out there that are as good as there are as bad. So, depending on what you watch or cannot find to watch, that will tell you if you are wasting your time or not. I personally don't. There is always something good on for me watch.

Kind of, do to the fact that my generation of kids 12-13 year olds will die an early death because of obesity. Part of that comes from watching too much tv. A little bit of tv every day is good doesn't mean you have to watch the learning or history channel or discovery. Just don't watch food network or stupid cartoons or shows that make you want to sit around all day and watch it or make you do something stupid.

If you're watching the History Channel, Food Network, Discovery Channel, etc....then no; they're very entertaining and actually teach viewers something. If you're watching the View, anything on MTV or any reality show, then yes... Those types of show are why I don't watch much, if at any, tv at all.
