I have quite a short TV attention span. To watch something through 5 seasons is long for me; I usually last 3. Though, in my own defense, I feel that if you can't tell a solid story in 5 seasons, something is wrong.<br /><br />We're working through Criminal Minds right now - my hubs and I love crime shows! - and Supernatural, off and on. Fringe is on our "to watch" list!Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10148297814666688033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-37160012114292671522014-09-14T16:45:41.224-05:002014-09-14T16:45:41.224-05:00I added Once Upon a Time to my Netflix list.

These days we just watch whatever TV shows happen to be on China's version of youtube/netflix (it's free). Currently that's Elementary.

Which was terrible,<br /><br />I could not make it past the first 5 minutes of House of Cards. He killed a dog. That killed it for me. I don't watch most of those other shows, either, and we missed all of season 3 of Once Upon a Time.

Ha! <br /><br />I recently spoke to someone in the "Retention" department of DirecTV and got our bill down about $40. Last summer I went down a package because we weren't using it and then suddenly our bill started creeping up again. I explained my frustration and the retention dept was actually quite helpful! <br /><br />That said, when we move this fall, we are going to try some internet options before jumping into a contract of any kind!Ginna Van Zandthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03366408244509232565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-847617429325015512014-09-08T12:03:11.807-05:002014-09-08T12:03:11.807-05:00We have Directv and I would love to completely can...We have Directv and I would love to completely cancel it. I barely watch any tv at all. If I do, it's old episodes of Full House with the kids. I just don't watch tv by myself. I get that I'm weird. I used to watch tv in bed sometimes, like The Golden Girls or Roseanne, but while trying to save money, we sent 2 of our tv boxes back. The husband watches a lot of sports though and the kids do watch tv, but they could do without.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08033554933698248094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-15907726574064355052014-09-08T11:22:24.800-05:002014-09-08T11:22:24.800-05:00We don't have cable, as you know, and really t...We don't have cable, as you know, and really the only time I wish we did is when I'd like to be actually caught up on shows like The Walking Dead. The rest of the time, I'm glad we don't pay for it. Plus, our internet ALONE is $130 a month (not unlimited, even) and adding cable would just be way too unaffordable.<br /><br />I don't understand crying at Parenthood, either. Honestly, I've never cried once at that show - but almost every single episode I'm yelling at one or another of the characters for being stupid or being clueless as to how to raise a child that isn't a complete and utter brat. Hopping off my soapbox before I get in trouble...<br /><br />I've watched Scandal, I don't mind it, except for the glamorization of infidelity (but his marriage is bad so it's okay?)...I sound like a total prude, good grief.<br /><br />Revolution was boring...<br /><br />We watched a few seasons of Prison Break but got bored once he ended up BACK in prison in whatever country he was in. <br /><br />House of Cards never really looked that interesting to me..<br /><br />HATED Orange is the New Black...<br /><br />And I'm hoping they put the "witches" season of American Horror Story on Netflix soon. I'm with you - I loved the first season, the asylum was kind of bizarre and boring, and I'm interested to see how season 3 is. And of course I'm looking forward to watching season 4 eventually, because circus people intrigue me.<br /><br />Not into vampires so haven't watched Vampire Diaries...and I can't think of what Fringe is off the top of my head.<br /><br />Mostly I'm just excited because the "new" seasons of New Girl, Parks and Rec, and The Walking Dead are supposed to be on Netflix later this month so I can FINALLY catch up. <br /><br /><br /><br />Angihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00394336849612797834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-73676088964846842832014-09-08T10:20:47.456-05:002014-09-08T10:20:47.456-05:00I don't have my head around fall TV yet, I'...I don't have my head around fall TV yet, I'm living in Netflix Nirvana on House of Cards, Dawson's Creek (so much different watching it as an adult), and The Wire. <br /><br />I do keep looking for premieres in my issues of Entertainment Weekly.<br /><br />I know Sons of Anarchy starts today I think/sometime this week, but I'm over a season behind on that.

But I'm already hooked on various ones.<br /><br />Parenthood's last season is this upcoming one. I'm sad as I like that show.

I stopped watching parenthood when J moved out in 2012. I love the complexities of the characters and the entire premise of the show (i'm a family girl), but in a time when i couldn't stop crying--I didn't need TV to set me over the edge. I watched Revenge up until the episode that they were "leading up to" from the first episode in the first season. It pissed me off so badly (and kind of lost me) so I gave up. I've tried TVD several times too--I'm not a vampire girl and this show bored me.Joey Hodges https://www.blogger.com/profile/03924167639294786738noreply@blogger.com
