The wife and I enjoy trying to find a different series we will enjoy together. We will often watch 2-3 episodes a night.

We are currently watching "The 100".

Do you like watching series and do you do it alone or with someone?
 
I don't watch anything in real time anymore, aside from sports. I'll pick a series that's available on Amazon Prime and watch it, though it generally takes me many months to get through something. Right now I'm through season 3 of The Americans, and halfway through season 6 of The Expanse.

This has worked out OK except when The Wire went from being free with Prime to not, and I was only halfway through it 😁
 
Not really any modern series but I do watch old stuff. And stuff that started long ago and is still on today like The Simpsons I could watch all night. Unfortunately can’t watch tv when dad is home and don’t have time too any other time but I do catch episodes when I am able. Don’t have anything like Netflix I just watch cable.
 
Yes I sometimes semi-marathon watch, will wait for a season or even whole series to end before watching them. By marathon I don't mean watch TV for hours on end, just mostly watch episodes of same show when I opt to watch TV, instead of watching each when it first airs then waiting a week, then 3/4th a year wait till its next season starts.

This also means that I manage to avoid shows that are cut short, cancelled without a proper development towards a conclusion episode, but I also avoid that by watching fairly mainstream, popular shows, except reality TV - usually can't stand it.
 
"Hanna" Amazon Prime Original, 3 sessions. Europe/ government hitman esq/ 2nd/3rd season best, so don't get discouraged if the 1st a micro tad slow building to 2nd/3rd season. I WANT MORE!!!!!!! Loved it!!!

Here is a great movie, don't anyone spoil it. Say nothing. "The Lie" Amazon original. One of the actresses that was in "Hanna" is a main character.

Some of my faves:
Bewitched
I Dream Of Jeanie
The Partridge Family
The Monkees
The Fugitive
The Brady Bunch
Family
Eight is Enough
Chips
The Dukes of Hazard
Green Acres
Gilligans Island
All of the Sid and Marty Crofft shows
 
^ some of those are good but wow, stuck in the past a lot. While I consider modern series a crapshoot, there's been a lot of quality programming between what you listed and now.

Plus, gilligans island was trash besides Maryann. ;) I suppose it's more about what other options one had at the time when limited to OTA channels.

Yes, binge watching is the way to go

Many of my faves in there. But you missed I love Lucy, Beverley Hillbillies and Mayberry.....:)
 
I do nothing but stream. Got rid of cable long ago but to be honest I miss watching shows the old way on a dedicated time slot.

Yes the advantages today are many but once not so long ago you could look forward to watching something after work and so did your peers.

Now you watch whatever, whenever.
 
We both enjoy, "Yellowstone". My wife enjoys watching, "Below Deck". It's a reality series based on the crew of a chartered high end mega yacht. It's basically a big sex boat for hire.

The crew members are all banging each other. With an occasional night out between charters in some exotic local, that usually results with the crew getting drunk out of their skulls, then starting fights with each other. Then the next charter rolls in, and the whole process starts over.

It's not much, but it's better than watching all of those high maintenance, painted up bimbos, all fighting with each other on, "The Real Housewives Of Wherever". Even I can't take that with my impaired hearing. It's like listening to half a dozen cats fighting in an alley.
