Watch TV shows? Then you are better than sticks to zomboyaschiku?
Motivation / / December 19, 2019
We Internet users have a pretty deceptive impression that they are stuck in front of their computers, something better than humans, sticky evenings watching television. Simple calculations show you how you are mistaken.
To begin, think about how much time you have killed eight seasons of House - 5 nights 9:00 4 minutes. And this is just one of the many TV shows you watch.
There are more films, broadcasts, "Pavlik" on YouTube... And the funny thing is that people watching TV series from Internet, these are the same people who are constantly used to say, "I have no matter what is missing time! What am I doing wrong?"
Let's look in more detail the problem.
We consider
To begin, try to remember what movies over the last year or month you looked to calculate the time spent on it. I used this service kinobaza.tv. But you can do it in any "serially tracker" that can count time spent browsing. Can simply multiply the length of series number × × series of the season the number of seasons and turn derived minutes to hours, days, months and possibly years.
If you choose to use Kinobazu, simply mark viewed films and series / seasons series. As a result, your profile will gather data on the time. It looks like this:
All in all the films I have spent 4 days 17 hours and 34 minutes. To view a series of TV shows I spent 31 days 20 hours and 15 minutes. Impressive?
Somewhere it took me over a month to view a series of series, the essence of which I can not remember a half years.
Movies always require less time. But the truth is that Hollywood began to take candid thrash us, afraid to spend a couple of hours on a regular pacifier spend months on proven favorite serials. Similarly, our mothers and grandmothers spend time Malakhov, "Windows" and other TV garbage that sweeps over the years in front of them ...
Here are the achievements of other people that you do not think that my case is very run:
compare
Looking at his friends and his model of film consumption of the product, I have come to the conclusion that on the day we watch a movie and the series 1-2 series released today. Total, given the bloated modern kinohronometrazha, obtained 2 hours and 40-50 minutes of a movie on the show day. It goes ≈3 hours a day.
Imagine that on weekends we spend as much, not stuck for a whole day in front of the screen (haha!), We get 365 days × 3 hours = 1,095 hours / year. Wolfram | Alpha He speaksThat is 1 month 15 days and 5 hours of pure time.
Even if you are limited to one series of the day, then the year will turn out that you will spend 15 days of pure time!
But this modern TV shows will not work, as the new series for us, we shake packs - seasons and watch avidly.
Now look at relatives and friends who may be called TV fans. They watch "box" somewhere between 20:00 pm, just as the commute home from work to evening - her watch commercials before 23:00. Located the same 3 hours a day;)
But look they are not very funny Hausa, but very funny Malakhov. Not very scary Luther and terrible protagonist daily newscasts. Not dramatic "medmenov" rather than less dramatic "krovinushku" or "Poor Masha".
Perception of different things the same thing. The time spent is the same. The result is the same. More precisely it is not. Think ...
Output
Probably stop watching soap operas quite silly. I do not regret a single second spent browsing the English "Sherlock" and "Luther" that the producers have not been converted into "hay". But I feel sorry for the time spent on "House" on "Lost" and other modern surrogate, which is very tricky way inspired me and you, that you do not see "zomboyaschik".
Instilled in us that we are better fans dance show Dom-2, and other "hay" for other kinds of people.
