People need their regular dose of entertainment. There are many types of it but watching TV series is a very popular one. It needs to be noted that lately people spend reduced time in front of the TV because of the heavy effect of the Internet and smartphones. Even watching the news is something that is now done in front of the computer. You don’t even need to watch any actual footage as you can simply stay up to date by checking news on various websites whenever you want during the day. Of course live sports make people stick in front of the TV screen but this is just one instance.
TV series have become a big thing over the past decade. You can say that the 90s were cinema’s age but now in the 21st century everyone has this one series that is hooked to. There’s this certain day of the week that everyone awaits because that’s when their TV show is on. And we aren’t talking about some cheesy soap operas but about drama series – you know, the ones that get nominated for Emmies. It needs to be noted that the level of TV shows has greatly increased. There’s a better quality of scripts, directing and acting and simply drives people crazy (in a good way of course). Imagine how you are just a regular person with a normal job at a waste or junk removal company in some UK town of your choice. TV shows allow you to live move to another parallel world where you got the opportunity to follow the destiny of a said character. It’s remarkable how well written stories along with excellent acting can really affect the way you think.
Many people follow more than one TV show. They got every evening of the week booked. This can be good or bad at the same time. After all you should take everything in moderation and not get over board with it. If you get too addicted your social life might suffer. You don’t want to be at home in front of the TV every evening instead of spending some quality time with family or friends. You should have a day or two designated for other things usually ones that require some outdoor activities. Don’t forget that when you are hanging out with friends you can share thoughts and impressions of the shows that you all follow.
It needs to be noted that some shows require viewer discretion. You shouldn’t show all that content to your children. We aren’t talking about something explicit or with a lot of gore but even moderate levels of violence and bad language.
Over the past decade something else was invented that sort of replaces TV as a source of series. It’s called Netflix. It’s an online library where you can watch on demand whichever TV show you want. Of course there’s a fee included but you don’t need to wait till next week for your episode.
