Just the hours we are home: watch the news in late afternoon and maybe later in evening.

I rarely watch TV which is why I use an indoor attenna that brings in about 15 channels.

I prefer to plan my viewing schedule out ahead of time. I use Amazon Firestick for on-demand shows.

I tape the shows I like, then watch them later on. Every once in a while I watch a broadcast live, but I usually go to bed early. I have Insomnia & have to take my nighttime meds early.

I see no reason to ever watch a show when it is broadcasted as long as I have the power to watch it on my terms.

THIS year's was definitely positive due to our new president! But please don't tell my pooch, she is terrified of them!

They're very beautiful, even though I know the noises can be hard on little kids and animals.

I live in the city. Someone very near us was shooting off fireworks. High flying, beautiful but dangerous for the area, thank you. I’m not sure who called the police.
