YouTube us more entertaining than network TV these days
We’ve been watching old episodes of The Sopranos - the older folks like the new channel that shows old Westerns.
Most of the new stuff coming out is unwatchable.
yep, King of Queens, Raymond, Seinfeld, Friends, Emergency, Columbo, Gun Smoke and basically anything other than what hollywood craps out.
I recently started watching MASH from the beginning, and am about half way through the series, far surpasses anything hollywood has put out in many years.
Every time you watch a Hollywood Production of ANYTHING, you are directly contributing to the Downfall of America because they almost exclusively are all Communists hell bent on destroying this country and YOU!!!
I’d rather watch KDramas.
We do not have “television”. Anything we watch is streaming from a computer. Documentaries, old TV shows, and political podcasts is pretty much it.
From what I can tell though, old episodes of Dragnet and Columbo are better than what is on TV these days.
We watch old movies, no WOKE/CRT.
Same is happening with music.
I talked with some college students, and they told me, most students listen to 80s alternative music.
I liked Suits.
But then I would probably watch LA Law and Miami Vice too.
Two sides of the same coin. Hollywood has run out of new ideas. So it’s either watch the old stuff, or watch remakes of the old stuff made woke and “diverse,” or watch the game shows that have taken over broadcast TV. You could also turn off the TV entirely and watch what the internet provides or just read a book.
Put me in this category too. Lately I’ve been binging on “Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea” and “The Outer Limits” on YT. Great stories and acting. Today’s TV shows make me cringe or roll my eyes at how bad they are. Unwatchable.
I prefer to watch the original Perry Mason series on METV.
Perry Mason had great plots. Modern Hollyweird has “lost the plot”.
Read later.
Re: ‘Reacher.’ Just read the books by Lee Child. Start with ‘The Killing Floor’ and you will be hooked!
The movie version(s?) with Tom Cruise are ridiculous. I haven’t seen the TV series, so correct me if I’m wrong on that point.
I can’t remember the last time I watched anything ‘new’ on TV. I’ll read or watch a cooking show or a travel show before anything else and the both of us love a good Murder Mystery. ;)
When you realize hardly anything made after 2019 is worth watching, you can find about anything made before that streaming for free somewhere. Even the deep pocketed streaming services like Disney+, HBO/MAX and others relying strictly on streaming media (no Live TV) have nothing new to offer viewers.
The virtue signaling in Hollywood flocked to woke’ism and destroyed the industry. Racism against white people is just more important to them than accomplishing something great.
I’m not nearly as worried about DEI on TV as I am with DEI on airlines and health care.
