Some show I can watch over and over again. Like Burns and Allen.
“George: Gracie, those are beautiful flowers. Where did they come from?
Gracie: Don’t you remember, George? You said that if I went to visit Clara Bagley in the hospital I should be sure to take her flowers. So, when she wasn’t looking, I did.”
Seems like we can only get the next iteration of old ideas, be it Star Wars, Spiderman, Star Trek, Terminator or 007. Now it’s a re-rehash of Ghostbusters. Are there no geniuses to roll the proverbial dice on the next original idea?
Trouble with binge watching old shows— I can still recite the lines on most of the West Wing episodes, as well as many from a lot of the other better shows. The forgettable ones aren’t worth rewatching and the really good ones can’t be forgotten.
I’d almost forgotten that Burns and Allen became a TV series (1950-1958) after their long radio program (1932-1950). I’ve heard a lot more reruns of the Radio Show than I have of the TV show. Thanks for the reminder.

There must be, but the people in charge don’t recognize them.

Me: Haven’t we seen this episode?
Her: I think so, but I can’t remember how it ends.
Me: so we watch it again?
Her: Yes, for a little bit.

The strip has 2021, but it seems that I have seen this one before.

Oh God this show is so predictable. Oh, I’ve seen it before.

I rewatch series I like (Perry Mason, Peter Gunn, Rocky+Bullwinkle, …) but I try to space them out so I don’t quite remember them.

I’ve read books and figured out int the middle of the last chapter that I had read it before. A failing memory increases your literary choices.
