Just to clarify, I wasn't trying to assert that Americans watch too much tv. That is just what surprised me the most about the data. Frankly I think the more interesting part is actually the contrast between what the more and less educated do with their time.

If you can't finish high school it's a fair assumption that you may lack curiosity. Television prays upon such individuals. People that would rather watch a fictional account of friendship, lovers, adventurers, heroes and villains than become one themselves.

This is of course, a generalization.

A fair generalization.
