    My sim was watching the action channel, the show was about a firefighter and he was saving a Sims 3 toddler from a fire...
    Is this new?
    Or all the new hints: bottle, bear, toddler toys ect. getting to my head?

      That video has been in the game from the beginning. I think we haven't gotten any new TV shows from TS3 videos other than the alien station in GTW> which is hilarious.

      I wish my sloppy Sim would leave on the TV like they did in past games so I can watch it. lol But they turn it off in this game.

      Yeah and I could have sworn there was a patch that stopped them from turning it off all the time in one of the updates but I guess I read incorrectly because mine always turn it off and there's no option to just turn it on yourself.

      Well thanks for the insight I thought I found something huge lol!
      I always thought they made it as if toddlers did not existed in the sims 4 world! But they do if they are watching them on TV lol!
      Mom must have left them at daycare and forgot to go get them after work....for two years now :smiley:

      That is something I really miss because couldn't we just click turn on before in TS3? :) and they could go do push ups and I could watch their TV.

      I can't remember either by being in the Science career or by having enough skill to use the satellite? It's been a long time since I played the science career. But it has a few shows that are realty fun to watch. It just happens or did in my game, bad memory, and I can't remember why my scientist could watch it.

      I've been meaning to make one of my sims be a scientist, so I guess I'll have to try it sooner rather than later. Thanks!

      I think theres a satellite dish that's unlocked in the Scientist career that gives you that channel, but don't quote me. If you don't mind using cheats you use the bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement and set your filters for Show All and only do Get To Work and see if it pops up.

      I believe the patch was actually to make them actually turn the TV off because there was a glitch where they would go to turn it off but it would actually stay on. I wouldn't mind if some Sims would leave the TV on like they do with the radio so long as I at least have the ability to turn it off myself when it gets annoying or a Sim leaves it on when they go to work or bed.

      Yeah- I just didn't realize that they included toddlers on them! It gives me some hope I guess...
      I'm just shocked it took me two years to see them!

      It's a trailer video from TS3 back in the day when Ambitions was announced. I remember watching a video trailer with firemen rescuing Sims to sell the EP. Or at least I know I saw it somewhere in TS3 or a trailer. Maybe they didn't realize people would take that video as a hint about toddlers.

      This is no hint whatsoever, the television channels are mainly gameplay from the sims 3.

      There are toddlers in TS4. It's just that they are same size as babies and sims children learn things slower so toddlers have to stay in the crib wearing baby clothes until they are 6 and become kids.

      I hope it is not a beam of light, I hope they come like the reaper.
