No, I don’t. They sell advertising based on many watch their programming. ( I’ll admit, I do watch mystery of oak island) aside from that, I hate TV.

Won’t be watching and we have cancelled all our cable TV subscriptions. We go outdoors, we dance, and we do active things now.

We’ve wasted enough hours and days of our lives watching these incessant games and crazy shows.

I hear you. I hate all the woke PC crap on TV.

When I say I watch TV, I'm speaking of mainly streaming content on my smart TV. I rarely watch over-the-air content, either from the air or bundled with cable. Most of the content I watch is from YouTube. It has a lot of instructional content via videos. Some content is from my grandkids and other relatives in other states, who post on YouTube. For instance, one grandkid competes in swim meets against other kids and the meets are televised on YouTube.

I'll watch instructional videos on electronics which are helpful in diagnosing problems with vintage items I repair (I have computers and scopes from the 1970's that function). Also keep up with modern items that are developed. Just repaired a kitchen ceiling LED fixture that ceased functioning last month. Expensive fixture that is no longer available, fixed it with $4 worth of electronics.

Aside from that are movies, historical content, and stock analysis.

As for the Super Bowl, my local team is playing and I'll watch to keep up with my nephews who are rabid fans (one has often been on local news as a #1 fan with lots of memorabilia).

So hope that corrects the notion that I'm into commercial TV, no I am not and hate the woke crap as much as most people. There is relevant content in streaming video for sensible people, as long as you can ignore the woke crap. I won't spend money on items advertised; I make my own choices on what I want.
