I didn't say there was anything too risky about sitting on the couch with them. Watching TV takes your attention away a bit and it could end up getting you bit easily, especially with anacondas. But my comment was more on your comment that said " I fall asleep on my couch a lot with my pets." The only thing I can see as more risky than falling alseep regularly with reptiles on a couch would possibly be drinking or doing drugs while taking them outside.
