I find television really boring if I'm on my own watching it. With pals it's good; as background fodder to other things (like WoW) it's good. On its own, no good.
So this fixes things somewhat:
Is this an exclusive thing to Sky Sports? Because stick an HBO drama in there (mmm True Blood) and I'm in. That would get me "watching TV" again.

Heehee! I wondered when this would appear.
I've been 'simulcasting' TV shows over the Internet for years -- since 24 season 2, even. We sit on IRC and count down... and then press play at the same time!
We then chat away on one screen, while watching on the other. Bliss.
We've done it from all over the world too... He was in LA once, and I was in a cave in Turkey...

Yep. It's the spice! What's a story without sharing, eh?

They do this in PS3 Home, as well. Just with better graphics.

Social tv watching 2.0 should come.
