We don’t have a TV in our bedroom. We feel like there’s so much distraction all over the rest of the house (TV, computers, radio, etc) that we want to keep the bedroom as distraction free as possible. Reading, sleep and… well, ya know. The only things our bedroom is used for ;-)

I actually don’t have a TV in my living room…I was adamant about that. We have TVs in our den and family room…and yes, bedroom. I fall asleep to it every night (have since high school) but I have to turn the picture off b/c my husband hates the light.

I have always been a “no TV in the bedroom” kinda person, but if I had a wall like the one in that picture – it might be a different story!!! Wow!

While the TV is perfectly nestled in this gorgeous built in, my husband I have banished ours from the bedroom. In lieu of the TV, I would place our most prize artwork. It delights the eye, but in a more quiet way. Ha, I’m always thinking about places to put art. I’m a tad addicted to building an art collection at the moment. Sigh.

I say no TV in the bedroom, until the kids are older and we need a retreat. I am such a TV addict that I would get no reading done if I had the TV in my bedroom, and I love to read.

We have one… I like to have the news on while getting ready for work. We probably should be better about turning it on less often though!!

I like it, we seem to have a split crowd!! We’ve never had a TV in our bedroom, but I can definitely see the appeal – I would never turn down another opportunity to catch a little HGTV! :)

We have a TV in the bedroom currently, though our plan is to relocate it to the living room when we’ve had built-ins installed that can hold it. It’s nice to watch a movie in bed every now and then (and great when you’re sick!), but generally I think it’s an unwelcome distraction.

We have a TV in our bedroom, but its used mostly to get our daughter to sleep at night. (don’t ask) Sometimes I might use it on the weekends if I am not feeling well and want to watch tv in bed.

I am hoping that in our new home, there won’t be a tv in the bedroom.
