Is TV all you thought it would be?

I think mostly happy, well adjusted people move to TV because they like the activities, the people of their age and interests, and the beauty. If they were not happy before, I fear they are not likely to be happy here. The evironment of TV is condusive to an active, healthy, entertaining lifestyle, but not everyone will avail themselves of those benefits. I guess I would say that is a good thing as there is only room for about 110,000 residents more or less, and there is not room for all the people who live in this world.
