I spend several hours a day doing stuff like this;

Those are nice paintings, GG. Painting is relaxing and enjoyable. Some of my grandmother's and aunt's paintings hang in my house.

Why would I say that? Personally I do not watch much TV as most shows are geared to the mass market, a 9th grade level audience. Producers want the largest possible numbers of viewers to make the most money. As for cop shows, I have personally experienced enough crime in Albuquerque, where many of the early COP shows as well as the Breaking Bad series were filmed, to last me a lifetime. I would rather read. It is a matter of how one chooses to spend one's time.
