My wife likes all those sorts of programmes too. I can’t begin to be interested in any of them. There’s enough misery in real life without adding it to what is supposed to be entertainment in my view.
Actually, it would seem that some (most maybe) people watch way more TV in general than I do. I’m not good at sitting doing nothing much. I tend to fall asleep if I sit down for more than half an hour anyway.
I’m better off tinkering with something in the garage or shed in the evenings or going out for a walk with the dog, or for a swim, or anything really rather than sitting staring at a screen.
When I lived alone, I didn’t even own a TV, it was only when “she” moved in that I was coerced into buying one. I just didn’t seem to want one at the time.
I do watch some things now of course, but anything that involves dead bodies or is to do with ballroom dancing, jungles, big brothers, ice skating or identifying people performing in masks is definitely not on my agenda.
