WE do and I hate it. I need total darkness and silence to fall asleep and DH likes to put the timer on and fall asleep with it on in the background. Chat Icon It's a tiny one though, and its in our armoire.

We do. We both like falling asleep with the tv on.



Ditto this. We usually set the sleep timer. We also use it for light sometimes if one of us gets home late and don't want to switch on the light to wake the other person up.

We have a tv in the bedroom and it's never been a problem.

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

At the moment we do, but as soon as we move to our new place - no TV in the bedroom!

Yup, and it never "gets in the way" either.

We have one in there, but, usually it's me that's watching.
DH watches his shows downstairs in the den, I go into the bedroom and watch.
We usually watch the News a bit and then agree to turn it off.
I need darkness and silence to fall asleep.

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

Having a TV in your bedroom is poor sleep hygiene. (I'm a sleep disorders tech). Our patients always have to turn of the TV, when we start their Studies at night. With that said, of course I have a TV in my room. We do turn it off when we go to sleep though.

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

I have not had a t.v. in my bedroom since I was about 17 years old but we got once a few weeks ago. We consolidated all of our furniture and ended up with an extra t.v. DH sold almost everything else except weights and other electronics.

We have only used it once so far to watch a DVD.

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

We do.

DH is the king of channel flipping, and I usually like to watch an entire show, not just 30 seconds of one. Chat Icon

Also, if he's studying in the computer room, I'll go upstairs so as not to disturb him.

We also have different tastes in shows. He would not sit thru half the stuff I watch.

I need TV to fall asleep. DH hates to have the TV before bed. We battle nightly because of it, but I always win. Chat Icon

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

We do, but its only used when I want to watch something that DH doesn't, and don't want to watch in the den (it's a mess right now).
Or if Dh is away, I like to fall asleep with it on.

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

We have one, but we pretty much never use it. We maybe use it when we're cleaning up or feel like snuggling in bed to watch a show or something... but if we use it 10 times a year, that would be a lot...

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

We do. We generally watch the same shows - we just like to have it so we can get ready for bed and finish watching a program in bed. That way we are already there as soon as the program is over.

I don't generally like to fall asleep with the TV on though- I need complete darness and quiet unless I am especially exhausted.

Re: Who Has A Television in the Bedroom?

We don't. I feel like the bedroom is my quiet sanctuary and a TV does not give me that type of environment. We go into the LR or guest room if we want to watch TV.

We both like to read before going to sleep anyway, and the TV would disrupt that.

The only time I wish we had one in there is when I am home sick.
