    Now we can get on the TV much faster and.
    Now when they have commercials people might find, places, restaurants, or jobs.

    Now when some people watch TV they don't do anything or get their jobs done, or their chores. Also a lot of people don't go outside or play with friends, do homework, and others, because they are watching TV.
