I do that when there are nothing good to watch on t.v. When there is somethings that is good to watch, I would stay glue on that channel and look for another channel to watch when it is commercial.

i haven't ever paid for cable.  There was never anything decent on (and I mean material-wise and of a clean, moral nature).  So yes, I was constantly flipping through the channels. I'd give up after the second or third round though.

Yes I flip through channels a lot because I hate watching so many commercials (particulary when its Football; that has so many commercials). However I usually know what is on before its live so I plan on what channels I'm going to switch to if commercials come on.

It's very rare for me to just randomly flip through channels. I have a guide on the television provider I have so I will look through the guide if I can't find anything good to watch and if I can't anything I'll just turn my television off and do something else, like listen to music or something.

I am not a channel surfer. I rarely watch TV and it's typically only when there's a specific show I wanna watch on at a specific time and channel. I don't just flip around looking for stuff. If I'm bored, my computer's far more entertaining than the TV :p

septembern : I do… I consider it one of the advantages of having a satellite dish. I also have two media players so I do well when it comes to variety despite tough economic times. I consider it the best of both worlds to a degree because if a channel isn’t available on my satellite dish it could be available or at least a version of it through one of my media players. The only down side to media players is you really can’t hook one up to a DVD recorder so you can’t record the channels you buy which are live feeds. Beyond that I love it.

Yes, its quite a bad habit, as my father says. We will be watching one show, and then right when it gets on commercial, I switch it on him, and he always gets so frustrated when I have the remote. Sometimes we actually fight over who gets the remote (usually I win, and he just mumbles under is breath.) Its quite funny.

Back before on-screen guides for Cable/satellite TV I used flip through them a ton. Back then you still had a ton of channels but you didn't know what was on unless you had a TV guide or watched the Guide channel which got old.

Nowadays flipping through channels a lot seems pointless.

I tend to settle on a show and just watch it. I find it annoying when people are flipping through channels-my mom does that and then misses half the show she was watching to begin with.

I never flip the channel since I know the numbers for the 4 channels I know,
(I have virgin media)

BBC news - 601
FX - 157
BBC Three - 106
E4 - 144

I only ever watch anything else if theres a movie I want to watch on, but then again I have netflix so that's rare.

No, I usually am content to browse through my designated channels that I know I like (mentioned in the "favorite channels" topic). Plus, if I am out in the living room, I have access to a "Guide" button that tells me what is on. Why bother flipping through channels when I could just look at the guide? If I really am bored, cannot entertain myself online, and cannot find anything good on my favorite channels in my bedroom TV, I MAY flip through channels then. MAYBE.

Whenever my friend is over, she flips through channels despite there being a guide button. I keep telling her to just use the guide, but she wants to see small bits of a show instead of reading... cause she thinks its more work to read instead of flipping through channels.

The only time I'm flipping through stations a lot, is when I'm watching a show and commercials come on.

That's when I pick up the remote, and start channel hopping like a mad man, to try and find something better to watch until my show comes back on xD

And wouldn't you know, the moment those commercials start...

Every station you are interested in starts playing them! lol
