It's difficult to get used to the change from live tv to streaming. It took me about a year to adjust.

I was a channel surfer. With streaming, you have to commit to a show.

I probably spend the most time on tubi. It has live local news for a few hours a day.

It has a lot of really bad movies with some really good ones sprinkled in and they rotate quite a bit.
I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

Yea it does.
I re-watched the Bernie Mac series on there. The boy is hilarious and the wife is hot!

I go down some really bad movie rabbit holes and get the side eye from the g/f.  :lol:

I saw one last week called Keeping Mum with Rowan Atkinson.  :lol: For some reason I like some of those bad movies.

I was watching Bernie Mac for a bit too. I forgot how funny that show was.

It's a complicated process but the first step is to feed the oats to a Holstein.

Quote from: neurosis on July 18, 2025, 07:33 AMThe only justification was live local news.

A decent antenna, provided you don't live in a way remote place, will get you your local channels. One time cost well under $100. I'm about 50 miles away from the nearest translator, and I get something like 50 channels. I only watch 3 or 4 though.

I haven't had any "pay" tv for something like 15 years. Antenna, Amazon & Netflix has more shit than I could watch in several lifetimes.  I will rarely watch Tubi, and even that has more options than I can deal with.

I do miss the days when Netflix was the only game in town. With all the competition a lot of the moves migrated over to other apps and I refuse to pay for a bunch of apps that I might use for an hour or 2 a month.

My wife and I watch NCIS Origins... but we stream it on Hulu.

Other than that, I'm pretty sure we don't watch anything else on it.

I'm sure that Steven's next gig will be nailed down shortly. If you guys could stand to watch him your heads would explode. But he is clever/funny. Sorry that he doesn't bow to your messiah.

I have never seen Colbert be funny. And I am not a Trumper. He panders to a specific audience and I am not part of it. I want jokes and puns and silliness,not crass political insults.  Letterman was funny. Conan is funny. John Stewart has his moments. Everytime i tried to watch Colbert was a disappointing waste of time. He is a condescending slimy ass. His cock holster comment was a low point in the history of American television entertainment.


If you want a weird rabbit hole to go down, watch Midnight Pulp.

Quote from: mowens on July 18, 2025, 03:13 PMI have never seen Colbert be funny.

Back in the Jon Stewart days I saw him do some funny interviews.

Once he went out on his own I didn't find the humor in him.

Before his night gig, Colbert would mock right wing loonies in a way they would think he was on their side and they wouldn't even know they were being mocked. It was pretty funny.

I haven't seen any of his late night stuff. I was surprised to see it was the top rated night show. :shrug:
