#the only shows I’ve watched recently and felt really confident abt were on pbs kids lol

I understand 100% why this matters both personally and in terms of industry but I still can’t relate when people talk nostalgically about how shows used to be once a week. I’ve basically never watched a show that way. I didn’t have cable or any local channels or anything growing up so everything I watched pre-netflix was a dvd from the library (for example I’d check out like 5 BTVS DVDs at once and sometimes had to wait a couple days for the next ones which was agony yes waiting to see smth that came out like 10 years prior lol). The few times I’ve tried to watch ongoing shows I’ve almost always lost interest which I think is partly just distance but partly bc I don’t like thinking about it when I don’t Know. I’ve never watched a show that I couldn’t spoil for myself and the idea of not having that option is actually terrifying to me lmaooo do you guys really just watch something without at least skimming the IMDb parents’ guide???? What if a scene comes up that seems scary and you can’t look up what happens??? Man real life has enough unknowns and plot twists 😭
