Do you watch live TV?

Yes, there's plenty on if you look. The fact that a lot of it may not suit your tastes, or mine for that matter, isn't the point. I'd sooner gouge out my eyes than watch 99% of "talent" shows or reality tv but they are very popular. I will admit to a weakness for all the various surgery and dermatology shows though. I like the detective dramas, including the repeats late night on Alibi and U&Drama, so right now I'm watching Dalziel & Pascoe. I watch a lot of documentaries on all sorts of subjects on many channels, not just Attenborough. I was watching Ben Fogle visiting abandoned Scottish islands earlier and then an ep of Michael Portillo doing train journeys in Japan. I have an interesting one ready to go on my TiVo all about temperature, another about forever chemicals and a few weeks ago Dara O'Briain was doing volcanoes. I think at this stage it's worth noting that most people aren't going to watch more than a small percentage of the available shows on most streaming services either, there's just so much choice. The difference is that you don't have to not-watch them immediately, you can also not-watch them later, if you take my meaning. Or to put it another way, most of the shows on most of the services might also be described as repetitive and low quality, it's just that they're not scheduled like broadcast tv so you never have to know what you're not-watching. (Harlan Coban on Netflix, anyone? Although they're clearly popular enough that they keep making them.)
