    And the previous generations had TV. Interestingly enough boomers I’ve known are the ones who still had TVs on almost constantly post 2010 when more and more people are giving up watching broadcast TV.

      Yes! This is my dad to a T. Meanwhile, my husband and I (oldish millennials) “cut the cord” fairly early on but more importantly, we actually have the TV off occasionally. That only happens in my parents’ house if my dad isn’t home. When I was a kid, he’d be working in the garage — where he had a TV — but we weren’t allowed to change the channel in the living room because he’d go back and forth and didn’t want to miss anything.
