    I'm a big TV nut. Working out daily has limited my time from sitting on the couch.

    Gaming? Probably too close to tv?

    Model making? Archery? Making bonsai trees out of copper wire? Learn a language? Wood work? Arts and crafts?

    With it being winter, I don't bike outside. Instead, I have one of my bikes on a trainer and watch TV.

    Other hobbies are archery leagues, downhill skiing, swimming, etc. Or, can find a fund raiser such as a 5K, stair climb, or other things and train for that while raising money for a cause you support.

    You can do rock painting while watching TV. There are a lot a lot of groups online dedicated to rock painting, or the kindness rocks project. You can go as big or little as you want with supplies. I have done it in the living room while watching TV

    Not really a hobby, but a while ago I would have said working out. But I've slacked on that for a while. Oops! :neutral:

    Other hobbies (warning: NERD ALERT) paper crafting, jewelry making, T2T, writing stuff, music music music!

    I make cake toppers. Currently at least. There are a bunch of things I do for hobbies though

    I have to say I miss read the OP. I thought the O P wanted to know what hobbies could be done while watching TV LOL.

    When the weather is nice, I like to go rock hunting to find rocks to paint. I also like to take my dog hiking in the woods and I like riding my bike. We just got 5in of snow and I am hoping that I might be able to go snowshoeing before it all melts. Unfortunately in northeast PA our Winters consist of getting snow and then 2 days later it gets all washed away by rain and Ice. Lol

    I like to go for walks and stare into people's windows and imagine what their life is like.

    Same thing if I'm in an apartment building, I can't help staring into people's windows

    I misread this as "hubbys" and thought we were going to get another shot at matchmaking.
    Ill get over my disappointment.
    But my hobbies include refereeing my offspring, reading, pool league and going to reptile shows. Once a month I also go swing dancing because its tons of fun with alcohol incorporated.
