what are the dis advantages of watching television?
  

Top answer

Television can't easily develop the complexity and depth of material over time, as it needs to assume people will start watching a series at any point; people also can't pause a broadcast to think and study what it's saying, and that also limits the depth of presentation A book however assumes people will start at the very beginning and work through; so it can therefore develop its material in increasing complexity to the end. It also assumes people can pause and think for as long as they like regarding anything they find difficult, enabling it to present more complex and reflective material. The other thing about TV is that it is very passive, and more than a small amount saps the creativity and time out of people.
