Films tend to be widescreen, but little else. (E.g., all the adverts 
[not that we care], the news and weather, most of the game shows me mum 
insists on watching.)

Personally, I just avoid watching TV at all. Watching the adverts is 
like being on a bad acid trip (I'm not kidding!), and most of the 
programs are rubbish these days anyway...
