99% of my "TV" watching is with my DroidTV app. I can cast it from my phone to TV, but I generally just watch it on my phone. It's great--you download the programs you want to watch, can put some on a "virtual DVR," etc., but there is no buffering (since they are downloaded to your phone already when you watch) and no commercials.
Anyway, yesterday was a great example of why I have it there. I was on my way back from Huntsville in the middle of nowhere and a massive thunderstorm, blinding rain hit where you couldn't see 20 feet ahead of you. I pulled off (fortunately an exist was immediately ahead) into a vacant parking lot. And sat and watched a TV show on my phone until it passed.
Anyway, I've been picking up some older shows during the summer. One of my favorite shows is Blacklist (previously discussed), and I love James Spader. Well, I found out that he starred in the show "Boston Legal." You guys have to remember--for many years, I didn't watch television. I mean, except for sporting events or something, I just didn't watch TV shows or series. So I missed out on a bunch of things like it. Anyway, I started watching it.
Now somebody told me today that Boston Legal is a spinoff of another show, "The Practice," which also had James Spader in it. I have many years worth of episodes now to watch that I will enjoy!
Related note--I started binge watching "The Good Wife" about a month ago, and took me about a month to get through all of the episodes. When they killed off a main character, the show jumped the shark for me. I almost didn't watch the last two years, but I struggled through anyway. I understand there's a spinoff of that one called "The Good Fight" with Christine Baranski in it, and I enjoy her acting, so I'll probably pick that up next.
