you and your spouse and t.v./movies

[mommy1968]

Do you and your spouse always agree on what to watch or do you differ in the types of things you like to watch? My spouse loves to watch documentaries especially really old history regarding wars and other stuff. He could watch them all day if given the chance. I get bored watching shows like that and I'd rather not spend a whole sat or sun afternoon watching t.v., let alone documentaries. Anyone else ever go through this?

The Countess prefers to watch Fox News, HGTV, and the History Channel. I prefer sci-fi/fantasy like Smallville, Painkiller Jane, Battlestar Galactica, etc. We usually watch "her" stuff when "my" stuff isn't on. She has gotten hooked on a couple of "my" shows, though!

I can't remember the last time we watched TV together... maybe a couple of episodes of American Idol, and a Ken Burns special on PBS every now and then... but I'm not into TV.

I can't remember the last time we watched TV together.

(Not counting the morning news for weather, traffic and closings.)

She likes "Lifetime", "Law and Order" and Sci-Fi stuff.

Myself, I would just as soon put on some music and try to jam along.

I never seem to get any better but I do enjoy it.

Good thing we have a basement where I can do that.
