Re: Do you record more TV shows and movies than you can watch?
I've got Sky with a Sky+ box. I record everything I want to watch so I too can FF through the adverts.If I'm recording a series that is say....13 episodes or less, I will record the whole series before I watch it, then I watch 2 or 3 episodes a night. The reason I do this is because if I watch one episode a week I forget what happened last week
The joys of getting older 
The programmes I watch fall into 3 categories. First one is stuff I really have to pay full attention to (Walking Dead, GOT), second one is what I call "also rans" which I can watch while doing menial tasks like washing up etc (Criminal Minds, Supernatural) and the third one is bubblegum telly, series that have a lot of episodes but nothing ever seems to change (H50, NCIS etc).
I only pay for Sky, I don't have Netflix or Prime, I'd never have time to watch all the programmes if I did

Unfortunately there are very few things on tv that appeal to me these days and there are the +1 channels and iplayer etc. We no longer watch any of the soaps so that cuts the choice down quite a bit and I really think I have seen 90% of the rest before.

Re: Do you record more TV shows and movies than you can watch?
I stopped recording shows about 10 years ago.By the time I got around to watching something, my interest was gone and preferred to watch something current.
Honestly, although I live alone I don't watch much TV at all. Only from 9 to 11 at night, and mostly the news. Oh, and three reality shows a years ... makes me laugh at the people making a big deal out of nothing.

Re: Do you record more TV shows and movies than you can watch?
Yes I do! I get interrupted by phone calls, so press R. I have to take the dog for walks, so press R. I do a meal, so press R. Then I have to find the time to blimming watch it all. I deleted a lot of stuff recently to free up the Sky box.I don’t like to miss Corrie, Emmerdale, Doctors, and often Holby and Casualty, tho do sometimes get fed up with the last 2. Having to record Apprentice because neighbour phoned just as it started. Watching it live now so might as well stop the recording.

I don't record anymore Richard. I usually just watch Netflix now. I still have my VCR. Don't know if I would remember how to set the timer or not. Must try it one day......Hope you are feeling a little better Richard......
