I haven’t had a TV in my bedroom in over 20 years. I had an ex who always wanted it on all the time, even to sleep to, and it drove me crazy.

I do. It keeps me off my phone and I can watch the shows I have on my list. And, when I suffer from nightmares, it provides me some comfort. But, then again, I still technically sleep with a night light despite my age so maybe I'm an exception.

Lol I use a nightlight at home and travel with one. Not because I'm scared, but so I can navigate the room quickly in the middle of the night. Usually just to pee. I already wake up confused enough about my location at home if I happen to wake, no need to be further confused in a new place.

I feel big screen is slightly better than looking at my phone all the time. Like putting on a movie or show makes me focus on one thing at a time, and when I want to go bed, the sounds of the natural doc I have on make me go to sleep fast. I know people recommend no blue light at all, but for me, it's better to pick something slightly less bad, imo. I'm all for TV in the bedroom.
