Why I Hate TV-Connor Foley Assignment 5

So yeah. I'm not a huge fan of TV. I watch some shows occasionally, but it's almost always as background noise, or at the very most something to look at while I do another mundane task. Something about television just has never grasped me the same way video games have. That's not to say I've never just sat down and watched a TV show while doing nothing else, but I tend to wander while I watch. I like movies just fine, and obviously video games carry my attention, but TV shows...I just can't get behind. I have never once binged a show, I don't even actually have Netflix or Hulu. I have watched a little bit of TV on Amazon Prime, but not much. And my taste in TV shows seems to be essentially one of two things. Either a cartoon I watched as a kid (Justice League, Pokemon, Chaotic, Bakugan, Looney Tunes, etc) or a mystery crime drama from the 80s or 90s (Murder She Wrote, Matlock, Monk (which is actually from the early 2000s, but you get the point)). I perform the same way with movies at home, I rarely watch them without doing something else. The spectacle of watching a new movie at a movie theater and the interactivity of video games are what keep me interested, but with home television and movies, they just cannot hold my attention. Why Youtube can confounds me.
