Now I have heard of Kodi 😀 so now I understand, thanks again Wayne 😀

As I moaned on another topic mainsteam tv is full of repeats, gameshows and reality tv shows so it’s no wonder why not many watch freeview tv.
Saturday and Sunday tv is the worst it’s ever been and if I didn’t have a 7 year old and a 4 month old then I would be in a pub Saturday night.

Not as much as we used to..I don’t watch any soaps anymore as I find them too depressing. I do like a good drama and a box set on Netflix which we will usually binge watch, we’ve found it hard fitting in Junior Bake off and I’m a celeb this week so it shows we don’t normally watch much TV lol 😂

I do agree about the increase of game shows and reality tv. I can’t believe how many people watch I’m a Celebrity. In our area at the moment it’s a huge topic of conversation, and is every year. I have many friends who find it strange that I never watch it.

I gave up on the soaps around 3 years ago, as they were becoming so depressing and far fetched. A mass murderer in every street alongside rapists and conmen. No happy marriages, just bigamists and cheats. I do miss the old style Coronation Street snd Emmerdale as I watched them from a young age with my mum, but sadly the new style does not appeal to me at all

Get home from work about 2 and usually have the radio on until about 5 or 6 then put Now TV on and catch up on any shows I am watching. Currently Good Doctor, The Walking Dead, FBI and the InBetween.
I am watching The Man in the High Castle on Prime and have just finished Carnival Row.
Very rarely watch anything on our main 5 channels although I am currently watching I'm a celebrity.
Soaps don't interest me at all, the news is depressing so just check my apps for that.
I am in bed for 9 so a few hours a night is enough for me 😁

Sounds as if we have similar tastes in tv shows (apart from I’m a Celebrity which I’m too squeamish to watch)

I prefer to catch up with the news online, I can just read what I want without them going on and on about Brexit all the time 😂

Just watched first episode of Man in the High Castle. Thanks for the recommendation, we really enjoyed it. Fascinating idea for a tv show. I hope it continues to be as unique and exciting as the first episode was
