I find the whole idea of watching television on a computer or these other devices they keep coming out with a big turn OFF. When I watch TV,I refuse to watch it on of a computer.I just want to continue watching it the old fashioned way,on the television set. Something like a streaming device is fine as long as I can stream the show,movie etc. on a TV, but that's it.

I have watched shows on the computer, although it's been a few years. What I don't get is people who watch a bunch on their small phones, I would not enjoy it at all that way.

I finally got a new laptop that I can run to my TV via hdmi cable. I occasionally watch channels I do not get on sites that don't always have the clearest picture so I must watch that on my laptop or it is too pixelated to see. I could never watch more than a few minutes on a phone. I try on a tablet but it gets old fast.

About watching TV on a phone.It's almost funny in this day and age especially where big HDTVs have taken over,yet at the same time viewing on a 3 or 4 inch mobile phone screen also seems to be popular.I would never watch TV on a mobile phone either.

I watch some shows on the computer that I can't get on tv. And also my computer screen is almost as big as the tv screen in the bedroom so it's not really a big adjustment.

I don't watch much TV on the computer or Ipad or phone, not really a fan, but I still will ever now and then.

I watched season 2 of Rhoda on my laptop which made go buy the DVD's and watch them on my TV:wave:

Watching TV on the computer is how I became a fan of The Office years back.

I can't watch it on my computer because I constantly check Twitter and a bunch of other websites. For whatever reason, I can watch television on my iPad with no problem. :lol:

Yeah that's the issue with watching it on a PC that you want to still use the web so just focusing your attention on a TV show is very hard

I don't like watching by computer my screen is too small and I prefer watching on my big screen TV.

I'm sick in bed a lot, so I frequently find myself streaming television shows or movies on my phone out of necessity. Otherwise, most of my streaming is done on my TV. I have Netflix, Hulu and YouTube apps on my PS3, which mostly renders watching videos on my computer unnecessary.

HD from all three services (even YouTube if it's a true high-definition video encoded and uploaded properly) is of higher quality than most HD channels I watch. While broadcast and cable television will still be around, I strongly believe that streaming is the future of content.

I can see myself in the future having two laptops

one for TV watching

one for using the web

how so?

how so?

You can do it either way, watch something on the tablet and surf on the computer or watch something on the computer and surf on the tablet.

I watch episodes of The Game on the computer since I don't have cable and can't watch it on BET.

I just gotta be a purist here.I've seen many a video clip here on the internet and it just plain isn't the same for me as it is on the standard TV screen.It always feels more like I'm doing some sort of research instead of just relaxing with the boob tube.

I rarely if ever watch on my computer, the closest thing I get to watching on my computer is by connecting my comnputer to my T.V. to watch shows on Hulu or Netflix.

Same here- prefer TV
Computer- maybe a fast video or a movie trailer but that's it

Add me to the list of those who far prefer standard TV viewing too... If I'm watching on computer, sometimes it's just to try to catch a guest appearance of one of my favorite actors.

I dont like watching tv shows on the computer but I can watch videos on youtubie for 2 hours :confused:

TV, Laptop, PC, PSP, If the show is good, it will translate into all media devices.

I can watch a full movie on my PSP with no problem. It actually made me enjoy watching films on TV with headphones, you can escape into it even more.

And now all my screens are LCD, so it's just a matter of screen size.

I own at least 25+ UMD movies for my PSP. I downloaded a few too, but I thought the novelty of the UMD was cool so I bought a bunch cheap. I have the PSP 2000.

I have the PSP 3000 and I only have a handful of UMD's, now I just convert DVD's to video files.

If I can't watch a show on TV for whatever reason I will watch it on the coumpter. It's better then not at all.
