These days almost everybody has a television, except in the remotest parts of some developing countries, and many western homes have a TV in every room! Television can be wonderful, if used correctly. You can keep up to date with what is going on in the world, learn about history, nature, geography and science in the comfort of your own home. It is a marvellous educational tool. It also provides entertainment in the form of films, plays, shows and soaps which appeal to a wide range of viewers. It is also a very good companion for people who live alone or are ill.However, there are also serious disadvantages to the TV. It makes people become very passive- they get all their experience of life second-hand instead of doing it themselves. It prevents people reading and talking. Much of what shown is complete waste of time.In conclusion, I think that, used correctly, TV can be very useful thing to have in the home, but used badly, it has a very negative effect on people.
