As an advocate of pre-marital "counseling" (by which I mean talking to someone trained in some way shape or form) I like these. And yeah, the TV isn't the highest on the list, but it can become a bone of contention and some people can't sleep with light/noise etc.
My parents did "pre-Cana" with couples from our church and would discuss all these topics, or more importantly, have the couples discuss it amongst themselves. My favorite part was that they'd have to eat dinner with the whole family. Kind of a "and here's what dinner with children (four in our case) is really like" thing. Couples who work this sort of thing out ahead of time both know what they're getting into and have a firmer base to work out unforseen issues.
No one has to ask the questions as they're written, but knowing that about your S.O. will make you better off in the long run.
