Seeing that makes me think TV watching must be absolutely dominated by women. Those all look like things I'd expect a woman to watch.
I also can't think of the last time I've had a discussion with a male friend about a TV show. Ten years ago we did talk about some shows, but I haven't heard a word about TV in years. Do men just not watch these anymore?
Yup, it's an interesting dichotomy for me; I'm quite online, but don't have an sort of cable/television subscription, don't enjoy most modern Western entertainment, actively avoid social media, as well as actively avoiding things like YouTube frontpage.
I'll look up some older Western media when the mood strikes (watched The Jackal yesterday, for example), but I'm not really plugged in to any algorithms or frontpages.
I literally have no clue about 99+% of modern entertainment.
And I'm only half kidding. My job is quite solo, so I don't have coworkers (mostly a blessing), I don't have many friends, and my family is kind of weird like me. So it only comes up rarely, but yes, I do confuse people when they realize I just don't engage in any of the mainstream entertainment they do. I think normies confuse me even more than I confuse them though.
Weird thing is, when it's the normies in my family. Generally the ones I'm not super close to. When they want to talk at length about some trending TV show I've never seen, or sometimes even heard of. Like, random normies I can sort of understand. If it's my own family just being so different, it is a little weird.
How 'bout that Squid Games? How 'bout that Game of Thrones? Tiger King is wild, man!
Not hating, but as someone who doesn't watch TV, I wish you'd provide some examples.
Because, as is, I got nothing. I guess I'll take your word for it.
And, yeah, it's probably the fault of women. And, for the record, I'm being serious, it actually probably is, I can absolutely believe that.
Uh, those all look like cult shows.
Especially John Oliver.
Oliver is just straight NPC downloads, over the air.

I think women consooom more.
You know there are guys off watching anime all day, though.

I don't interact with normies.

That's not really that unusual.
