Do you enjoy watching T.V Series ?

^ 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.
What I like about the sitcoms and shows I listed is that they're good clean entertainment without having to use cursing and vulgarity to make you laugh. People actually had talent back then.
 
I used to have an SVU addiction, but I can tell that it's getting harder and harder to come up with truly fresh material after 23 seasons. It's getting hard to watch.

I eagerly await the final season of Ozark. That show has shocked & amazed me more than anything I've ever watched. I've never been one to yell "Holy S....!" at the TV, but it happened several times during the first 3 seasons. I heart Helen Pierce, may she RIP. I'll be interested to see how season 4 goes without her.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but "Pose" is a landmark piece of TV, IMO. I love shows that give a realistic peek into an existence that I'm totally unfamiliar with. The final season (3) was a bit far-fetched for me, but 1-2 were great.

Thank God for MeTV and the other 'retro' stations that play old sitcoms. Mom, Two and a Half Men, Big Bang Theory, Roseanne and The Nanny are my evening mainstays. I used to love Young Sheldon, but he's reaching an age where his antics are no longer cute. Annie Potts is brilliant in that show, but I may appreciate her more than most, living in Texas.

If you have Prime the Vikings is a must see if you are into great story lines and lots of huge battle scenes.
The wife and me binge watched it while stuck inside with Covid.
 
One that I wish they would replay was L.A. Law. There were several seasons of that show, and it was easy to watch. But I haven't seen it run in syndication anywhere. Yet they show E.R. over and over. I think POP Network just restarted it for about the 5th or 6th time.

Sounds like you never grew up. That's great if you can do that.
 
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.
We used to love Below Deck. Not feeling this years cast.
 
I wonder why so far nobody mentioned:

Breaking Bad
Fargo
Better Call Saul
Those are three of my favorites. Don't say too much, though, or I'll have to start watching Breaking Bad from the beginning again!

I've also followed The Walking Dead and the West Coast spinoff, although the earlier seasons of both were better. The first episode or two of TWD made me feel like the guy in that old Memorex ad with his hair and tie blowing back.

If you like Ozark, check out Bloodline on Netflix. I watched that awhile ago, and found it more realistic. Ozark started straining my ability to suspend disbelief as the last season progressed.

Black Summer, also on Netflix, puts a new spin on the zombie genre.

For network TV, I liked the old CSI set in Las Vegas. I'm glad to see it back. At least two shows I got into were dropped with no resolution. Aquarius was one, with David Duchovny as an LA cop in the time of the Manson family. The other was about a guy wrongly imprisoned who got a big settlement and was made a cop (or maybe he was one already). The plot was about him trying to find out who had framed him. He lived in a big empty house and drove a Grand National.
 
This is the only way we watch “TV” anymore. We don’t watch live TV, the news, etc. Everything we watch is recorded or on a streaming service we pay $2-3 extra a month for no commercials
