Unless I’m on a road trip watching TV in my hotel, I don’t watch live TV at all. I’ve seen my lifetime quota of TV commercials, thank you.
The closest thing with any regularity is SNL, and even that is DVRed most of the time. I catch glimpses of sports but I’m not a sports guy.
None, other than visiting relatives who have the TV going and I might watch a few minutes. I don’t own a TV.
I watch the news, mostly for local weather and traffic. Occasionally I’ll have it on as background noise. I have never in my life had cable. Gave up satellite, oh, nearly 20 years ago. Happy to have a broadcast antenna.
When I actually want to be entertained it’s Netflix, Amazon video, or my extensive collection of DVD’s and, yes, VHS tapes (I still have and use VHS. I also still have vinyl records and a turntable). Or I borrow DVD’s from the local library.
None at all, since 2011, except in doctors’ offices where they inexplicably have to have daytime TV turned on at loud volumes. And sometimes at relatives’ houses.
Basically just sports events, or the occasional “must see in first run to avoid spoilers / be in on the fantalk ASAP” types of shows, like “Game of Thrones”, or season opening/finale episodes of a show like “Doctor Who”.
Heh, you know, it’s been off for so long that I completely forgot about it! Game of Thrones I *do *watch live. There are no commercials and it’s on late enough that I’m done with whatever I was doing during the day.
I’m still hoping that Len Dawson gets a Superb Owl ring someday.
Only the occasional premium cable tv show episode, and only when there are no commercials and I’m dying for the next episode. Game of Thrones, Counterpart, John Oliver; stuff like that. Most of the time I’m time-shifting it by minutes with my DVR; starting at like 9:05 instead of 9pm, or maybe pausing for a bathroom break. Watching it legitimately, actually live without ever pausing is extremely rare.
Other than that I DVR everything, including sports. Especially sports. I watch NY Giants games in 50-60 minutes each, and the only other football I watch are Jets games (35-40 minutes each), playoff games (45ish minutes each) and the Superbowl (2 hours.) If I couldn’t FFWD through refs discussing something on the field I would throw my remote through the tv.
You know how there are two announcers in the booth for a game: the play by play guy and the color commentator guy? I almost never hear color commentary as I FFWD to the next play. I still don’t know how Tony Romo is as a color guy despite having watched multiple games he’s called.
So since I went to DVR in the early 2010s, essentially nothing.
The news are on in the morning while i get ready for work. About 15 minutes total.
Football. I will again when it’s baseball season. Every now and then I don’t feel like putting any thought in and I will channel surf. But most of the time no, I’m either watching something on the DVR or something streaming.
Virtually none. When my mom was alive we’d record CSI, Fixer Uppers, and Grey’s Anatomy and begin watching them at 15 past so we could fast forward through the commercials. But in the three years since she’s been gone I can probably count on my fingers the number of things I watched the night they aired. This year there wasn’t even a Dr Who Christmas special to add to the count.
ZERO. I cut my DirecTv 6 months ago. Catching up on my dvds and a few vcrs. Just finished binge watching The Americans 6 seasons - excellent.
