If yes, is this where you usually watch tv? Is this helpful or detrimental to your life in general and/or to your sex life?
I only have one tv, and it’s in the living room. I have no sex life. That involves as anyone else, that is. When my late H was alive, we had a tv in the bedroom (won it in a raffle to raise money for someone’s kidney transplant) but we always forgot to watch it.
Yes, we have a TV in our bedroom (and one in each guest bedroom and one in the family room).
We don’t watch much TV in the bedroom – just the morning news and maybe The Daily Show/Colbert Report at night. Most TV-watching is done in the family room.
I don’t think it affects our sex life.
One in BR, one in LR, watch the BR the most. Single, unmarried, no sex life, so the TV is as close to a “Goodnight!” as I ever get.
Old CRT television in the bedroom, which only gets watched if one of us is sick. The other 99% of the time, we use the big LCD in the living room.

We regard TVs in bedrooms on about the same level as toilets in kitchens.
We only have one tv, in the living room. We had a tv in our bedroom a few years ago, which was handy for watching porn, and thus did not negatively affect our sex life. That one died, though, and wasn’t replaced. We have to watch porn in the living room now.
I have a TV in the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living room. The bathroom TV is a little CRT with a digital converter and an antenna velcroed to it which gets used on the patio, in the garage and in the basement. The living room TV has extension speakers in the laundry room below it. I don’t have cable.
The reason for all the TVs is so I can clean house, cook, do laundry, shower and wash dishes while keeping track of one show. The show is usually The News Hour or the Sunday morning talk shows because that’s what’s on when the activities above typically take place. By the time prime time programming is on I’m settled in the living room where I can also be on the computer while watching (or ignoring) the TV. I have radios in all the above locations as well.
I think it has a positive effect on my life because I stay pretty well informed and entertained.
Nothing interferes with my sex life. It’s all solo and takes place whenever I get the urge.
Yeh, I’ve never had one in there. I can’t imagine it having a positive impact, and I sure as heck never wanted a negative impact in there. That said, I can’t think of anyone I know that doesn’t have one in there.
Four TV’s in the house, not including laptop ability to watch shows.
We turn on the TV in the bedroom and put it on a timer to watch the late night talk shows…but both of us can rarely remember who the guests were as we fall asleep in probably the first ten minutes.
However, I also use the TV as my alarm clock. It turns on with the morning news and, with eyes closed, can hear if there is any news worth opening my eyes. Usually just listen until I finally decide to get out of bed (about half an hour or longer - I am most certainly NOT a morning person).
Re: Sex Life - you do know there are on/off buttons?
And there is also an on/off button for the TV.
I have a black 13 inch Sharp company made TV in my room that has a VCR installed underneath the screen and I have had it ever since the summer of 1997, July the 4th that is. 
God bless you always!!!

P.S. It still works and everything, but I did have to get a new remote for it at one point.
No bedroom TV and we both prefer it that way. Maybe that will change once we have kids.

We had one in our bedroom in our last house. We were working then and it was escapism. The downside is that the upstairs of the house got very little use, other than the kitchen/dining and computer area. When we moved into this house, it was a relief to have a tiny master BR with no room for even a wall-mounted TV. Bedrooms are for bed activities, and watching TV doesn’t fit into that category, IMO.
I used to have a tv in every room that didn’t have a toilet in it.
But that was before the digital transition. Now I just have the one I watch.
I guess the transition was a few years ago. You’d think I would have gotten around to installing a toilet in the bedroom by now.
Yes, a smaller (24") LCD on the dresser. I watch it mainly in the morning as I’m getting dressed; news, weather, etc.
Only one TV in the house, in the living room. I’m against having them in the bedrooms for sleep hygiene reasons.
I don’t have a TV in my bedroom. I actually have an extra TV that used to be in my old bedroom, but I never bothered to hook it up in my new bedroom. I found I get more sleep if I don’t have the temptation of a TV right there. It is super comfy to watch TV in bed, but I’ve found I average about an hour more of sleep each night since I stopped watching TV in bed.
I found having a TV in the bedroom can be helpful for one’s sex life. Back when I was part of a wacky (and hopefully briefly lived) social experiment called monogamy, the ex-girly loved to lie in bed and watch TV while we cuddled. This tended to lead to sex since I’m incapable of spooning a girl I find attractive without becoming aroused. I never got how TV was supposed to interfere with a couple’s sex life. How many years do you have to be married to say “Nah I don’t want to have sex, I’d rather watch TV?”
Nowadays the only time I watch TV in bed is if a young lady is sleeping over and she wants to watch something. I just bring in my laptop for such occasions.
…never mind. Even what I thought I was going to say falls short of what should be said here.
I’ve got a TV in the bedroom and a big one in the living room. I live by myself. I love TV. It has never affected my sex life.
Technically I only have a TV in my living room, however I live in a L shaped studio, and my “bedroom” is around the corner from from my “living room” and if I lay with my head at the foot of the bed and look around the wall, I can see the TV. However, this really isn’t the most comfortable way to watch, so I rarely do so.
When I was a kid, I always had a TV in my bedroom and I seemed to watch more TV in there than I did with my family in the rest of the house.
