A contest: how pathetic is your "stay at home" entertainment?

[MissMillie]

This morning, I watched the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman battle the fembots because Dr. Franklin had a weather machine creating a hurricane.

I watch some TV and surf the net a little.

5. Decent, we have lots of dvds and vinyl. Lots of books, puzzles and art supplies.

We also have dogs who keep us busy.

6. I live in COsta Rica

I have few current shows.
The “new” season of American Pickers is from 2018

We also have reruns of
Project Runway
Pawn Stars
Storage wars (which I won’t watch)
Criminal minds (of course we have seen every episode ten times)
No Colbert. No Kimmel No Conan
Only Fox News and CNN International

However, the location is paradise and we do have a pool.

24. I watched that too, yesterday

My brother and I watched both shows regularly back in the day. I've also found All in the Family and The Jeffersons on more than one channel and and this weekend Decades has a Father Dowling marathon.

27. I always liked Dragnet too I loved the bad acting. I read that Jack Webb made it that way

to make it more realistic. I think it worked.

15. Five seasons of "Chuck." What if "Big Bang Theory" Characters were CIA Agents

[calguy]

16. I'm watching Vintage NFL games on YouTube

Watching them on my tablet with headphones on cuz my wife is NOT an NFL fan. She watches Hallmark while I watch football. We have a good arrangement.

[Bayard]

17. I spend WAY too much time on DU

Don't know if that's entertaining or scary.

[Dem2theMax]

22. I do the same thing.

My DVR is full. According to it, I only have 14% room left on the darned thing. I thought I would get caught up on all of the movies I've recorded. But I can't put my phone down long enough to watch anything! This place is addicting. But I've known that since 2004.

[Freedomofspeech]

18. We are doing jigsaw puzzles, playing Scrabble..

Reading a lot . We love Britbox and Acorn TV. Only have the TV on in the evening and play music all day long. Thank God my husband and I really love (and like) each other. If I were with my ex husband through this they would be carting me off to jail by now.

19. I've been watching a lot of Netflix. They have some terrific documentaries.

I'm working my way through a series called The Innocence Files right now.

Wrongful convictions are so persistent in the US justice system — by some counts, over 2,600 innocent criminal defendants have been exonerated since 1989 — that at times they seem more like a feature than a bug. The Innocence Project, founded in 1992 by law professors Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld, and organizations within the Innocence Network are devoted to not only overturning wrongful convictions through DNA testing but also advocating for reform in the criminal justice system.

All of those numbers can feel pretty abstract, however. The new Netflix series The Innocence Files aims to translate the abstractions by showcasing the stories of real humans, people who went to jail for years or even decades based on evidence that fell apart when it was put under a microscope. In nine documentary episodes — some as long as a feature film — The Innocence Files draws on the same intriguing stories that often become the subjects of true crime series, while aiming to make a bigger point.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

20. Watching "The Facts of Life" on MeTV right now!

[stopbush]

21. Watched ST: Picard and the first two seasons of ST: Discovery on CBS AA.

Is it just me, or is there way too much crying on STD?

[csziggy]

23. Watching the construction guys working on my addition

Lots of eye candy out there!

[Niagara]

25. All the Hallmark Channels

Are having a free preview on Sling at the moment. I've been missing on DU because I'm getting my fix on Little House on the Prairie and The Walton's on the Hallmark Drama Channel.



These aren't shows or channels that I get access to on a regular basis so it's almost like I'm a junkie getting my fix. It annoys me when people call and interrupt my fix. It annoys me when I need to cook because it interrupts my fix.



I have been washing laundry, showering, and putting clean clothes on the daily. From reading parts of DU, I'm doing better than most people here with these particular chores. It still annoys me being interrupted.

26. I have been watching performances by that classical artist

Buggus Bunnius.

28. Sling TV is currently offering a week of free Happy Hour TV (5 pm - midnight) without requiring

any credit card for a free trial you might forget to cancel in time (something I've done with other free offers, as have others I know). You just need your email address and a Sling password to sign up.

And at the moment that Happy Hour includes Epix films, one of them "Rocketman," which I watched last night.
