Disadvantages:
1. There's nothing good on, anyway. With hundreds of channels available, viewers can spend hours just flipping channels trying to find something worthwhile.
2. Some people take television too seriously.
3. Television often uses stereotypes that can warp the watcher's perception of the world. Characters often participate in risky, violent, or unwise behaviors and also reinforce rigid gender roles and racial stereotypes.
4. Television makes us antisocial, taking the place of family and friends
5. Watching too much television is not good for your health.
