I only like watching TV when I'm having meals. It's a habit in my family that we always turn on the TV when we're having dinner; that's the only time we watch TV. Otherwise, I only watch on my tablet because there are more choices. I can choose any show that I want, unlike TVs where you can only watch their shows at the time they are broadcasting.
