I haven't owned a TV for now more than 5 years... and boy am I glad of it when I read this kind of post.
I hate what they call "reality TV", as you said, it's about as real as the reality of me being the Queen of England. The people in it are terrible and a shame to the rest of humanity. And this opinion is from the 2 times I watched the french equivalent of Survivors at my mom's house during a holiday, years ago.
DVD's and Internet are a perfect replacement of anything interesting I could have missed (a few TV shows including SGA, CSI and a couple others), which those days isn't much, unsurprisingly.
