Thanks for correcting me. I missed the second graphic.

I still find it depressing that TV takes ~50% of an "average" person's leisure/discretionary time. 94 minutes per work-day is just over 407 hours per year, and weekends will add more.

Edit: Changed to exclude weekends. Assume 260 work days per year.
