    We have 3, and I feel like that is too many.

    27" LED in bar/breakfast room
    37" LCD in Living Room
    55" LED in Media Room

    But then I look at them, and I don't really see which one I could get rid of. I like the 27" in the breakfast for watching SC while eating breakfast in the morning, or being able to watch TV while I cook.

    The 55" in the media is not going anywhere.

    And the wife likes the 37" in the living room for when I'm watching sports in the media room.

    For those with a TV in the master bedroom, have you always had a TV in there? And if not, have you noticed a noticeable decrease in your sex life? Serious question. I'm really opposed to a TV in the MB because I have heard it decreases sex life in marriages.

    Only have one TV, which is in the family room. It is an old 27" RCA tube and is working fine. My only complaint is that I need to use a converter box and it's now cropped because many things are designed for widescreens. I hate updating things that work. But, eventually, I will probably go with a 55" widescreen LCD. I really only watch movies. Most of which are on my computer which has a 1080p widescreen monitor. ;)

    Two. One in the living room and one in the basement that never gets used.

    My wife has been wanting one in the bedroom for awhile. Her reasoning is that in the evening it will get us to relax in the bedroom and not in the living room.

    3. We used to only have 2. Got a great deal on a used TV from my brother in law so we bought it about a month ago. I am already regretting it and will be ditching one of the other tv's.

    I am off to shoot bows with my son and thank goodness my other two are not watching tv right now. They are building a fort. hahaha

    We have 2 mainly for the little boy to watch his videos/cartoons/educational etc...no cable and no satellite. I might watch one movie a month if that. IMO waste of space, time, and money....mostly good only for mindless and listless.

    1 In family room, 1 in bedroom, and a projection TV in the basement for college football where the players are lifesize and to watch animated movies with my granddaughter. Even though she is only 9 months old, you should see her face when the Lorax is 4' tall.
