But neither of us would ask the other to watch when we weren't there -- other then a quick break. The thing that annoys me most is my husband putting on the mute button whenever there is a commercial for one -- and for another talking through who-done-its with comments about how the plot makes no sense or finding fault with the dialogue... but who's complaining?The Broadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04976467218216864644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-32263032031766521462015-01-15T09:22:28.501-05:002015-01-15T09:22:28.501-05:00You need another TV in the main room with headphon...You need another TV in the main room with headphones...wait, that won't work because are supposed to watch your wife's shows....!Taborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15257045780724471840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-64653722788078649292015-01-15T08:55:37.480-05:002015-01-15T08:55:37.480-05:00I have Netflixed a lot of stuff.

He pretty much chooses what we watch. I think that's why I blog, LOL :) I have snuck in a few shows I like, like American Idol, but mainly it is what he wants to watch. I welcome the few times he's gone in the evenings to have the remote to myself. I'm amazed at all the wonderful shows out there that don't seem to hold hubby's attention, but mine :)<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
