quarantine rerun viewing

S

skippercollector

I've been reading about which shows have been more popular during the quarantine, and as usual, my viewing list is very different. I have watched a LOT of reruns, but not any one show on a daily basis. I have been watching programs on Antenna, Comet, Decades, Get TV, Hallmark, INSP, Light, MeTV, TCM and the local CW affiliate.
Barnaby Jones
Bonanza
Dark Shadows
The Flintstones
Heartland
Hot in Cleveland
The Love Boat
Madam Secretary
The Partridge Family
Petticoat Junction
Quantum Leap
The Waltons

And...

Wait for it....

One Hallmark Christmas movie!

Mom and I have also been watching the Heart of the Nation Catholic Mass out of Milwaukee on Sunday mornings. These were recorded in previous years so there are still parishioners at the Mass. We've gotten spoiled by the services being only a half hour!

The only contemporary series I've watched in the past two months have been All Rise on CBS (now over with), Frankie Drake Mysteries on PBS, New Amsterdam on NBC (now over with) and Siren on Freeform.
 
more reruns

Going back and forth between my cable at my apartment with Spectrum and my mother's house with Cincinnati Bell Fioptics, I also have watched Hallmark Drama and Aspire and Up.
Some more reruns:
Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman
Julia
Star Trek: Voyager

The only new series I've watched recently is the miniseries Barkskins on National Geographic.
 
I had thought about starting a thread like this so I'll add to it. I'm working at Lowe's but it is part time and on a staggered schedule of different times of the day. Here are a few things I've been watching:

Some normal shows:
Jeopardy
Seinfeld on TBS
King of Queens on Lifetime or TV Land
Everybody Loves Raymond on TBS or TV Land
The Andy Griffith Show on TV Land
MASH when and where I can find it
Game shows on Buzzr
Movies on TCM

Some not so normal:
The Prisoner on Shout Factory TV
Svengoolie on Me TV
Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Riff Trax on Shout Factory TV and Pluto TV
The Red Green Show on You Tube and with Steve Smith's son Dave monthly on Sunday nights on Twitch - The final stream is tonight and then they switch to a new podcast.

Lots of videos on You Tube, mostly related to cars, computers, vintage electronics, off the beaten path travel, restaurants, classic TV and movies and classic Christian rock.

A few more:

American Pickers on History
Diners Drive-ins and Dives on Food Network
Man V. Food and Food Paradise on the Cooking Channel
 
Here's what we've been watching a lot at home--

Me: American Pickers, various alien stuff on History, Triple D on Food Network, Lots of stuff on Motor Trend (partial to Fantom Works and Graveyard Cars, which seem to be the only shows there that don't attend First Chevyterian Church)

Wife: Lots and lots of HGTV

Together: Impractical Jokers, and now that Buzzr is on Netflix, Supermarket Sweep AKA The 90s In A Nutshell

Also, I've been YouTubing old eps of The Hollywood Palace, for some reason.
 
Buzzr has been doing a good job of getting on to streaming services to where it can be seen nationwide even in areas where they aren't on an OTA station. I wish more diginets would do that, especially Me TV.
