TV watching positions

The "girls" of the Evil 3 share Persia's disdain for tv viewing (ignore at
all times) but Rowdy not only sits riveted to Bronco games in season but
when the screaming starts from the hoomins, he leaps over and paws
frantically at the tv screen (or maybe what's moving on it).
We don't know whether he thinks he's "saving" us from whatever makes us yell
(in pain?) that comes out of the "moving box" (remember, he only has 1
working eye; God knows what he sees) or is just caught up in the hoomins'
excitement. When it gets loud, the girls retreat under a bed somewhere till
sanity returns. Rowdy also sits regally on a recliner and watches regular
programs with us.
