powdered toast man away!
For the most part, I route the sound through the receiver but if I'm just listening to the weather, I'll just leave the TV speakers on.

Sometimes...but it is rare.

Never in the H/T room - everything is wired through my receiver! As for my upstairs family room, only when watching a VCR tape of a TV show (don't have my VCR in through the receiver upstairs).
I guess I'm the odd one out - I always listen using the TV speakers when watching television programming unless there's something special. Naturally, DVDs and CDs go through the system.
I'm with ^-------^ BradJudy. While watching regular TV shows, I usually just use the TV speakers, unless it's something in the musical genre (Grammys, etc). DVDs/CDs are always through my receiver. The reasoning may be that I just have regular antenna TV reception too - I reserve the best, pure digital signal for my receiver.
Same as Brad and Cliff. With a 2 and 3 year old at home the TV is essentially on most of the day. No use burning up my good gear for SpongeBob.

I'm the opposite. Kids programs are bad enough compound that with terrible sound from the tv speaker and I can't take it. Always thru the HT.
Same as Brad, Cliff and Randy. For analog tv, is use the tvs speakers. For hdtv or dvds, I use the receiver and the ascends.
