I wouldn't be surprised if we, as a nation, were watching less TV than 20 years ago. Problem is, we are also cooking fewer meals, taking in more calories, drinking more at a younger age, and every town has a fa(s)t food joint.
It's simplistic to say TV viewing is the reason we are fatter. Wealth is the reason. If people cooked their own meals it would be a great step forward to beating obesity.
There is far more to do these days rather than sit there and watch tv. Depending on what time I decide to start and finish work I can easily do 4 episodes of a show, bit don't always. I'll happily go for a run. Problem is the pub is on the way home so that's an easy trap to fall into as a few I know will have a few swift ones through the week, even if they aren't there it's a local anyway..
I don't cook as good as I could either and after the pub it's easy to think "**** it pizza in the oven" or call in the chippy/Chinese.
Oh then there's the bastard ps4.
