2.) Shows we watch on FX, AMC, NBC etc (Walking Dead, The Voice, Modern Family, Mr Robot (theres at least 20)
I only have Netflix and Amazon and I have the Walking Dead, Modern Family, etc. Definitely not The Voice, thank goodness, no idea about Mr Robot. Network shows that are good enough for Netflix to want, they get. Just because it's also on a network doesn't mean you won't get it some other way.
Sure months later.
And? That was my point, who cares? There is no one to discuss it with, and once you don't start when it first releases the impact is literally zero. There is no real world negative here.
I think If I stopped watching TV according to a network schedule, I'd probably stop watching most TV in general. Not sure I am ready to go that route.
yeah it's a me thing.All bonus for me. That's how I know it is that bad, I wouldn't watch it if I had to select it.
yeah, well in that regards... I'd be happy to watch history channel, etc more than I do, but my wife hates those shows... and since I already mentioned that she wants to be in the same room as much as humanly possible.. we watch something that is tolerable by both of us.
Man, I'm glad my gf knows to watch the shows I won't like when we're not together. We have lots of shows we both like, so plenty of stuff to watch together. She has kinda warped my Netflix cue though...
You can set up different profiles on Netflix to keep that from happening. We have all four of us in the house with our own profiles. Works great.
I know, but the damage is already done. Plus she uses her friend's account on her phone, she already has her own profile there.
so make two new profiles and just abandoned the original one. the damage is gone.
Meh... if it was that big a problem, I would have done that already. It's somewhere between annoying and amusing.

That's just a mess. Doesn't have Netflix of her own, I'm guessing?
Not currently. But she has generous friends/boyfriend.
That's handy, for her.

I did that but everyone keeps using my profile. I come home and my suggestions are little baby time, puppy dog pals, chuggington, and a thousand shows liek them

Make one that isn't you and isnt' the default.

@dashrender said in YouTube TV:
In retrospect, I'm kinda surprised that the DVR hasn't killed more TV. I guess the shows are strong enough draw without the added conversations about them afterwords.
I tend to binge watch shows after the season is over, so discussing about the shows is useless to me. Can't stand those cliff hangers or part one of two episodes.

Same here. If I am going to watch something, it will always be binged. Otherwise, I won't bother. Waiting a week between shows is annoying and I forget what I was even watching.
-
Remember back when you had no choice but to wait a week between shows? It was like the dark ages.
-
Yeah but some shows, like True Detective Season 1, just wouldn't have been the same binge watched IMHO.

Right, it would have been way better

As someone who struggles for normal television to even qualify as interesting, binging is one of the few mechanisms that I have to make it worth sitting down for.

Plus with some below average shows is actually enjoyable when binge watching it.

I think its a boxed wine vs bottled wine thing. Or Bourbon vs Scotch maybe?
Wait, maybe Seagrams vs a 7 & 7 is the best comparison?

Boxed wine is better if you want the wine to be properly maintained. Bottled it to make people feel better about it. One is about the quality, one is about the emotional response.

Just like an aluminum can is a far better storage and transportation vessel for beer than a glass bottle. Glad they started putting good beer into cans, removes some of the stigma.

My Coke Zero tastes better in a plastic cup with ice than in the can, or any other cup.

Exactly. Seals better, keeps more light out.

And you can take it to the pool, the beach, or anywhere else glass bottles are a no-no.

Also a good point. Same with boxes of wine
