I think the saints should be allowed to think for themselves. If someone has trouble with spending too much time watching TV or can't control themselves from watching shows that are ungodly and make them feel guilty (conviction) then they need to shut the TV off or get rid of it. But others have no problem watching TV in moderation and turning the channel or shutting it off if a show is offensive to God's principles. Making a rule across the board for all the saints leaves the Holy Spirit's job of convicting of sin out of the picture and places unnecessary demands upon the saints. And not to mention what non Christians who you might be witnessing to think about this mess.
This resolution isn't even about watching TV! It's about advertising on TV to the lost.
