I'm not really sure if I understand the point of this o: , but couldn't you just get rid of your tv or turn off free will? XD Or what I do is I plan my sims day before they get to autonomously do anything, but that's just me xP. I don't know, just my opinion.

Thank you for this! I like to have TVs for fast fun, but sometimes I just want to listen to my music instead of the same annoying TV sounds. To raziel1687: turning off free will will disable *all* autonomous actions, not just the TV. I like to play with free will on, but find certain things sims do annoying.
