They aren't always quite that on edge. You just need to make sure you are paying attention to what you are doing. Watching tv with them really doesn't paint this picture to me since your attention is not focussed on the animal.

And with that in mind...I got a pretty heavy feeding bite and coil from an amazingly calm ball python years ago while I was watching tv with the snake. Complacency is a mistake, and a big mistake you can't be taking with larger snakes (like a Boa constrictor).
