You're pretty much on-the-nose. You can always make an active choice as to whether you'll be producing or consuming. With TV, you're guaranteed to be consuming. There is nothing wrong with consuming. Sometimes your brain is fried, and you need to mentally recharge. However if you have the ability to produce, and you are not choosing to produce, you will fail. For some, removing the consumption device makes it easier to produce since the choice the consume is no longer an option.
