“YouTube us more entertaining than network TV these days”

YouTube has lots of good content. I often download podcasts into MP3s with https://www.4kdownload.com/products/youtubetomp3-72 Can do the same for tunes.

Yes YouTube is run by liberal little shytes who demonetize conservative channels.

How about a reboot of Kojak? That might be good. I would even dig up and wear me old Members Only jacket.

I also think that 80-inch television screens are impacting movie theaters.

I set my TV remote to ban LGBTQ.

The TV automatically changes to BINARY, and then flips back to the previous channel.

Thus, I can continue to watch the original show without the gratuitous LGBTQ portion.

carol Burnet was good...old Mission Impossible...I liked Alice and can catch a rerun once in a while...

I can't think of a single prime time major network show that we watch...none...I don't like their "humor" or the smugness of the shows....

I was looking forward to watching Tracker, about a highly-skilled survivalist type who tracks people in the wilderness to get the reward money.

It was great...until they introduced his staff, a butch, masculine lesbian and her wife...so I turned it off and I won’t watch it again.

When Calls The Hearty and Doc were also good, wholesome shows.

That’s our house, too. We watch Criminal Minds (hubby and I call it “Murder & Mayhem, lol!), Suits, Desperate Housewives, Amazing Race, Everybody Loves Raymond, old movies. The new woke stuff is stupid, boring and cheap.

Yes, YouTube has some great stuff! Even channels by average people sharing tips about prepping, frugal living, cooking and such still are better and more enjoyable than that unbearable CRT and woke garbage.

What always happens is, I read an article and get energized to respond, but I don’t wait until I’ve read every comment. Which I should’ve done, seeing as you had already responded.

But then I would probably watch LA Law and Miami Vice too.

I highly recommend "Tokyo Vice" on "MAX", - created by the same guy who did "Miami Vice".

Based on true story of an American who became a reporter for Japan's largest newspaper and revolves around the Japanese mafia.

Season 1 had 8 episodes and was very good...and season 2 is even better!!!
