Who watches TV?

Remote_tvI watch a lot of TV.  And I just turned 30.  Which makes it really shocking to read the following statistics from Magna Global:

Network median age 2004-05 (October to May):
CBS: 51.8   NBC: 48   ABC: 45.3   Fox: 38   WB: 35   UPN: 32.9
The median age of the U.S. population in TV households is 37.9.

Alas!  I'm an outlier - A visit from my younger bro confirmed the statistics. He's addicted to World of Warcraft, and spend every minute of his time in our apartment roaming Mars, killing aliens and what not.  TV time?  Zero.  Someone needs to tell me why that game is so addictive...  or rather, tell me why anyone would want to be a Hilton (and I'm not even saying watching the show).
