If blue light greatly reduce melatonin levels then how do people fall asleep in front of running TVs? I was told blue light greatly reduces melatonin. How is this not the case for so many people then? I'm the type of person to be tired and when I go to bed it still takes me 3 hours to fall asleep. I'm super envious of people who can fall asleep in loud bright environments.

Because they don't sit with the TV inches from their face like a phone

The TV acts as a thought-stopper and distraction. When you're trying to fall asleep you might think about what you're doing the next day, reflecting on the previous day, thinking about whatever bullshit, etc. Meanwhile you're frustrated with not sleeping early enough and shifting around due to the resulting discomfort.Some rerun of a show you'd seen a million times before is "boring" enough to not add a new source of stimulation while being distracting enough to get your mind off the things that keep you awake at night.Source: I made it up just now but it sounds good.
