How many televisions do you have in your home?

I was having an interesting conversation at work today .Which led me to come home and look up this information.
What I found really blew me away.
I don't have much time to watch much television.
I force in the time that I do watch, for a few favorite shows.
Now I am genuinely interested. Are these polls correct?

Please post your answer in the comments below.
 
Here is a sample of one sites poll results. Feel free to go to a link or two if you'd like to take the poll.

How Many Televisions?

According to a recent survey had done in the USA, it seems that there are now more televisions per house than people, thanks to the decreasing costs of purchasing a CRT television (those big, heavy, boxy ones).
Nielsen Media Research has said that the threshold was crossed in the last two years, but this means that now there are on average 2.73 television sets in the typical home which only has 2.55 people.

Three but none of them "do" TV, they are all for games or DVDs. Tired of the garbage on TV. haha, I know that's more than you asked.

Two, but one is a small 13 inch so it hardly counts if you ask me. ha-ha.

We have 4 TVs in our home for 3 people. We each have our own TV and there is one in the guest room. We had more when the kids lived at home. I didn't count the TV hooked up in the garage.
Embarrassingly, I have four in total.
Two are tiny (13inch) for games like Nicole.

2 Bedrooms but 4 TV's (one is in the bathroom - nothing wrong with soaking in a tub and watching Seinfeld.

3, and only one is ever on. We just don't watch a lot of it.

All done here Nov 20, 2006, 9:43pm EST
I have 2, and even though i technically own them, they appear to belong to my children....
Linda R. Nov 20, 2006, 10:00pm EST
Only one TV but it's a big screen. We gave the small one away when we got it last year. There's only two of us so we don't have any use for more than one.

I have 2 but only one is ever on.

4. They are all the old kind and will probably have to be replaced soon when they become obsolete.
Chris H. Nov 20, 2006, 11:04pm EST
I have none.....I use the pc for my tv....
D Q. Nov 20, 2006, 11:18pm EST

Connie C. Nov 21, 2006, 12:43am EST
We have 2 but only use 1.
The second one is for my husband to take with him when he teaches CPR/SFA classes.
Lisa B. Nov 21, 2006, 1:15am EST
We have 4 and mainly use 2 unless I am sick in bed and then we use 3. I do not watch much tv, but I belong to Netflix and watch a ton of movies.
