Stinge Watching

February 09, 2024

I loved this from Jason.

Stinge watching describes my viewing habits of the past couple years. Two kids under two has severely limited the time available for sitting down to watch a TV show. By the time the kids are asleep and all the todos that accumulated throughout the day are done I'm lucky to have time for one episode of a show.

A second catalyst for this behavior is that I hate picking something to watch. When I find a show that's engaging I want to prolong that enjoyment as long as I can, build a little anticipation for the next episode, and delay having to pick something else to watch.

Recently I just finished watching The Brothers Sun on Netflix. Both kids have been going through a rough period sleeping and this show has been nice to put on at the end of the day. Funny, entertaining, intriguing enough, don't have to invest too much thought into it.
