Basically:
-
Find a Youtube Channel / TV Series
-
Binge watch it all quickly
-
Bored again
-
Spend a lot of time looking up stuff to watch, but nothing looks interesting
-
Repeat
Usually stuck on Step 4 longer than actually watching something, so I just browse news/reddit/lemmy or read random wikipedia articles until I find something to watch.
How do y’all do Step 4 correctly? How do y’all find stuff that’s interesting to watch?
I don’t really follow content creators. YouTube ads are more annoying than tv and half the content feels like an ad.
I’m more into prestige tv shows. I just look at critics top lists for different years. Whatever looks interesting goes on jellyfin. Generally HBO is good or at least was.
It means you aren’t waiting for shows to get renewed or see if they iron out the kinks. I don’t bother with anything that hasn’t been renewed unless it’s getting ratings over 7.5 or critical acclaim, preferably both.
If I run out of new content, I go to old reliable a, like the west wing or ab fab or six feet under. I’m not a big fan of reality tv but the traitors, especially the UK one without celebrities scratched an itchy and I’ve binged them all. I think it will drop off in quality as people learn how the game is played successfully. Too quiet or too loud and you’re out.
