[quote=Anonymous]Yes, we only have one TV and neither of us loves watching TV/movies on a device, so if we are watching TV, it is usually together. Sometimes one of us will choose to go read instead, or occasionally one of us has work to finish up or my DH will play this strategy game he likes on his computer. In which case the other person might watch something on their own.

We have a lot of overlap in entertainment interests though. We both like sports and will often watch a baseball or football game together if there is one on. We have broad interests in different kinds of television and movies and are both willing to watch almost anything the other person is interested in. There are a few exceptions -- he likes certain animated shows I don't care for (Rick & Morty, Simpsons) and I enjoy a guilty pleasure like Bridgerton now and then. But most stuff falls in the middle where even if one of us is more interested than the other, we're both willing to watch.

Right now, we are watching the new Obi Wan show, Hacks, the occasional baseball game (we normally watch more but the Nats are pretty hard on the eyes right now), and will soon watch the new season of For All Mankind together. It's a good mix of stuff that also gives us something to talk about -- whether Juan Soto's slump will end soon, if season two of Hacks was as good as season one, how Obi Wan compares to the Mandalorian, why so few people watch For All Mankind even though it is excellent.

It's hard to imagine just going out separate ways in the evening. That's the main time we have for each other, between work and kids. Our relationship mostly takes place on couch while watching TV these days, and probably will for the next few years until kids are old enough for us to start going out more again.[/quote]
