Oh, television, how we all love you. Is there anything else you can rely on?

Sure, some programs are terrible and others that you aren't interested in, but overall, it is important because it will always be there. When you're down, it'll be there to cheer you up.

When you're bored, it'll help you pass the time. It'll make going to the dentist a little more bearable.

Because television will never leave you. It will never expel you from its existence.

To demonstrate your love for television, you should study it as you would any other essential part of your life. It's only right, considering you've formed such a bond with television.
