Even though I totally dislike TV, there are occasions when I love a good series. I never mind TV if we turn it on to watch a specific show and then turn it off. Vince can watch a show he likes, or we can watch a show he thinks I like. I don’t have a clue how to make Neflix or Amazon Prime work . . heck, I don’t even know how to turn the TV on because, according to Vince, it takes 3 remotes. What I dislike is when the TV is turned on and left on all day or even all afternoon. No one is paying attention. It isn’t like “that’s my favorite show!” . . it’s just one. I do not like that and when that happens over and over, I start wanting the TV gone. We only have one in the house. Oh, we have others but a TV in the bedroom is where I put my foot down and since we can just about see the family room TV from any room in this house, there’s no need for another TV. Really, if I had my way, we wouldn’t have any TVs. We’d have radios and iPods and music going all the time. But, I don’t have my way! That’s ok . . I get other things I want!
Vince does a really good job of finding shows he thinks I will like. There is a TV and a comfy sofa and a recliner (notice I didn’t say it was comfy!) in the sewing room and I don’t mind if he goes over there and watches shows or I don’t mind going over there and knitting with Boots so he can watch gross shows in the house but I’m not watching blood or violence or bad words. OK . . now you’re wondering why he doesn’t just boot me out and he could watch anything he wants to watch. I have redeeming qualities! 🙂
Anyway, he found the series “Emily Owens, MD” and we’ve been watching it. I love it. I think it’s old. I don’t know how we’re watching it . . Netflix maybe. We’re both enjoying it. I think most of y’all would like it. If you haven’t watched it, check it out. I’m going to be sad when we’ve watched all the episodes.

Pie in the sky

No violence seen no bad works just good shows . Also have Vince look up BBC series they are all good . Nothing like the junk we have.

I leave my TV on all day for the noise. But there area a few shows I really like..have you watched The Resident on Monday night. I LOVE it! Blacklist is a fave, too, but since I don’t know you that well, they may be the kind of shows you hate. That’s what makes the world go round, right? HA

I am with you on the hubby’s viewing habits. When I tell him dinner will be ready in 10 minutes, I think he won’t start a show he knows he won’t be able to finish, but no. It’s just so mindless. It also irritates me when he leaves it on when he leaves the room, and knows he won’t be going back. Just, please, turn the thing off.
We do have music channels, which I sometimes like, but then he doesn’t like that the next time he uses it, there are those many, many channels where there should be only one. It makes it too hard for him to scan the channels. Sorry, not sorry!

I agree with Wanda, great shows.
