The Old Folks Home

I never watch mainstream tv, meaning ABC, NBC, CBS but I do turn on stations like Comet and Grit and either listen to sci fi or westerns while I'm working in the kitchen.

Mainly we watch movies and made for TV stuff via Amazon Prime Video. If I'm watching TV I want escapism. Too much of what is on mainstream tv is either preachy or telling me how I'm supposed to think or act or reflecting how cruddy the world is. No thanks. I'd rather watch a good old Zombie Apocalypse or a good cowboy and Indian throw down (I always root for the Indians! Even though they always lose :hit) I always tell my husband that if it has space ships and space battles, or horses, Indians, Cowboys in the story, I'll watch it although I have been watching The Musketeers via PV. There are horses in that one. Beautiful Friesian's in that series!
Sounds like you enjoy the same things I do.
 
I don't watch tv much myself. Few days a week late night I like to before I go to bed.
Have you watched 'Cowboys & Aliens'?
I thought it was pretty good. You sound like me. It's either sci fi or a old western. I'm not much into zombie movies though, I like to keep it real like in sci fi and apocalyptic movies :p
Apocalyptic movies and shows are my fave just not zombies. Great thing about old westerns for is if I can't decide what I want to watch, there is always a great western available.

I love 'Cowboys & Aliens'. I'm also hooked on TEOTWAWKI/dystopian books that I find on Kindle and download.

We watched Terminator: Dark Fate tonight. Not bad, not my favorite Terminator movie but Arnold had some great one liners so it was fun to watch.

@CapricornFarm, I would be surprised if it was the opposite, my friend. How are you feeling these days?

Doing pretty well. 4 of my grandkids and their parents are visiting here. Tonight I gave the older two a how to build fire lesson, followed by roasting marshmallows.
 
I don't watch TV period and haven't for years. My sister was paying for cable to keep our father occupied and in one place (his favorite chair). He passed away years ago and I told her I never watch tv. She still pays for cable :confused:

I do use my DVD player and watch movies once or twice a month; and I follow NASCAR and sports on weekends.. I want to get the stick, you can watch movies and all the TV you want with it!!
