Fantasy Literature

I can't read that tiny print anymore either, but reading glasses help me.

I hear you about flipping channels and wasting time with TV. I don't do that anymore. I have a system. I use a site that lists by premiere date and time upcoming new shows and movies, as well as dates and times for returning shows. They include networks and a brief description of whatever is new. Sometimes they link trailers or reviews, too. I look at that about once a month and put whatever interests me on the calendar in my phone. It takes me about a half hour to an hour (rarely). That way, I know what I want to see and when and where to find it, so it's easier to discipline myself and I won't miss the good stuff.

I allow myself a couple of hours after dinner for watching whatever is on my list. I also allow myself at least Rachel Maddow once a day, and sometimes Chris Hayes, Joy Reid, or Lawrence O'Donnell as well, or even CNN, if there's something going on in the news (DU helps with that!). Other than that, my TV stays off (unless there's something important happening, like on Jan. 6 my TV stayed on all day and into the night!). I guess I'm fortunate that I just don't enjoy watching the drek the broadcast and cable stations churn out. (Some streamers are doing that, too, now. I turn OFF "autoplay" in the settings wherever I can!) I'm particular about what I want to spend my time watching. But I can't not watch. I love the film arts too much to just not watch.

The site I use is MetaCritic. I don't know what I'd do without them! Here's a link: https://www.metacritic.com/feature/tv-premiere-dates

I hope that helps you or anyone else reading find a way back to the quality fantasy and sci-fi that is on our small screens now. I do my best to support the good stuff. The more we support them, the more they will produce.
