Every night my wife, daughter and I watch "King of Queens" on TV Land before bed. We usually are asleep by 9:30 or so. The show is great in my opinion and easy to watch and unwind to. Its a little bit of family time in this hectic world.

It reminded me of when I was a kid. We watched MASH when I was younger, Buck Rogers, and later on it was Cheers. Then it was bedtime. Still remember those songs in my head.

What shows do you watch now and what did you watch as a kid?

I always put a movie on. May take a few nights to finish, but I don't like commercials.

We’ve been rewatching Breaking Bad. We’re into the last 5 episodes and now it’s getting pretty intense.

When I was a kid, I'd watch "The Fugitive", now, 55+ years later, I rewatch an episode or two on Youtube.
Still enjoy it.

Wife watches all those shows on ID about how to kill your husband by mixing antifreeze in with morning coffee and I prefer something more lighthearted, love the old 2 and a half men, the Charlie era ones.

LOL mine too!! I wake up at 2AM to re-enacted screaming as someone is being murdered. [emoji15]

Wife watches Amazon/ Netflix type of shows on her tablet after dinner. I play on my phone here and other places before bed.
My attention span is a little too short these days for movies.

Not much TV for me these days.. Just RDP, the internet has replaced a lot of TV watching for me. But I do enjoy watching documentaries every once in a while on Netflix.

Interesting how many people watch King of Queens. Wife and I watched the series, but the end was jacked up and we never went back to it. It’s usually Seinfeld or Frazier for us. Sometimes wife watches Friends. I used to watch MASH.

The Local bars. I'm a night owl.

Total shit show. I forgot how much fun it was to supervise drunk assholes get punched into oblivion all while the local cops watch at their ready. They let things happen and iron themselves out.
Sucks because Friday things are getting shut down here for round number three.
Thank god Wisconsin is still open and only 7 miles away. Most People there behave properly. We all get along just fine. Never had an issue.

I look at my phone for about a half hour for the news. Wife watches her shows like True Crime or Netflix movies on her iPad in a box. Yep!!! I said a box. I took a box about 12x12x12 and cut the top and front out so she can put her iPad in there and the light does not shoot my way when I’m trying to go to sleep 😎

The Office when the wife and I are home at the same time.

Cobra Kai when she’s not. [emoji23][emoji23]
How funny you say Cobra Kai. I put it on last night (the wife is 3 years younger than me) because I've heard good things about it including the music. She was not amused and went straight to her phone. I eventually turned it off and put it on House Hunters, something we both enjoy.

Depends on what's out at the time, but we usually unwind to Ozarks, Billions, or some BRAVO reality TV trash (I'm in it for the chicks not the content 😂 )

Dude, brilliant, I can’t stand the glow from her iPad.

Generally whatever is on TV Land. Mostly ends up being King of Queens.

Never used to have the TV on when we went to bed until a few years ago when I spent a couple weeks in the hospital. Since then, its on every night until the auto shut off turns it off.

My TV watching is on a schedule. When I wake up at 6:30am, take puppy out. Come back in around 7am. Watch Gilligan's Island on METV. Then switch to Bloomberg Canada for the market news until 1pm. Then switch to Fox News until 7pm. At that time I watch Big Bang Theory. Then its onto METV until I fall asleep. TV has auto shut off. Sometimes at 5pm I watch Big Bang Theory.

Not Criminal Minds🤣. Husband likes SVU, detective shows, I like King of Queens but prefer I Love Lucy, House Hunters, maybe a Lifetime movie. I liked MASH and even Gilligans Island but I’m old🥴

Its funny you say Criminal minds. My wife was watching this show and it got me interested in it. It is a great show but wow some twisted people out there. Well I started watching it in bed and about a week in I realized I wasnt sleeping and having crazy dreams because of that show so I no longer watch that show before bed. LOL
