43. I know it is easy for me to say...BUT STOP WATCHING them. We did years ago. Now all we see is what we want. British TV.

We are not sports fans. So there is no draw to watch whoever has football, baseball, hockey, or soccer. With the added benefit of NO STUPID ADs.

We do use Amazon Prime to watch free movies with an occasional new run movie $$$. But it's our date night. Popcorn, candy, and soft drinks.

We both have hobbies that accompany our TV watching. The wife quilts, knits, or genealogy. I tie flies, pick locks, and read.

Now I'm taking an online course.

BUT never watch MSM bulls**t.
