With a new television season about to begin, viewers can't wait for the season premiers of their favorite TV shows, including long runners Grey's Anatomy and Law & Order: SVU, as well as high profile new shows, such as the Fox's country music drama Monarch or HBO's Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon.

Of course, the landscape of television has changed considerably in recent years, as evidenced by the fact that ABC's acclaimed Abbot Elementary was the only scripted network series to get any major nominations at the recent Emmy awards.

As a result, no one is beholden to tuning in when shows are on the air, or depending on their DVRs, or, for 80s and 90s children, VCRs!

More and more people watch their shows on streaming platforms, which means that not only can they watch current series the day after they aired, but younger viewers might also be able to binge classics like Friends or Will & Grace, as well as short-lived cult-favorites like Happy Endings or Freaks and Geeks.

As a result, many people's favorite show might be a show which ended its run several years ago.

Redditor stellar-being was curious to hear everyone's favorite show, old or new, which they are currently watching, leading them to ask:
"What TV series are you loving right now?"

Primal

"Primal."

"I love dinosaurs, alternate history, show-don't-tell storytelling, animated fight scenes, and Samurai Jack."

"So to me, it's the ideal show."- FloridaFlamingoGirl

The X-Files

"Got an itch to rewatch X-Files, still holds up 29 years later."

"Almost done with Season 1 and it's only been a few days."- Leppter_

Chuck

"My wife just discovered Chuck so we've been enjoying that together."- Jensen_Games

House

"Finally getting around to watching the medical drama 'House' and so it’s pretty good."- Gryffindorq

Resident Alien and Atlanta

"'Resident Alien', it’s weird and funny starring Alan Tudyk."

"Also, excited for Atlanta this Thursday."- Tappswxf

Severance

"Severance."- lessthan3_

Fringe

"'Fringe'."

"It starts as a 'monster of the week' kind of show in season 1, with some underlying situations that make you think 'what’s really going on?'"

"Greatly picks up in S2, then goes full story mode S3 on."

"It’s an amazing show."- dminus222

Stargate

"SG-1 nostalgia."- Nilrin

The Last Kingdom

"The Last Kingdom."

"One of the few shows that gets better as it goes along."- Ferrouswheel69

Barry

"Barry."- The_Golden_God1113

Those 35 and older are frequently amazed by the fact that people are able to watch just about any show at any given time.

Though they're likely not complaining.

Who would complain at the ability to watch Rob Lowe smolder in 9-11: Lone Star, and then have him melt our hearts in Brothers and Sisters?

CNN Just Used A Hilarious Poll To Show Just How Unpopular Trump's Ballroom Is—And We're Cackling

After President Donald Trump claimed that his new White House ballroom is "very popular" with the American public, CNN shared a hilariously shady poll that gets to the truth of the matter.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

Woman In Labor Times How Long Her Husband Takes To Poop To See If She Can Push Their Baby Out Faster In Hilarious Viral Video

It's well-known across the internet that it takes forever for men to use the restroom. For dads especially, in the time it takes them to poop, when they return to the house, their kids will have aged seven years, and their baby will have learned to walk.

These are jokes, of course, but it's an internet consensus that men spend a really long time on the porcelain throne.

In early 2024, 49-year-old Antonia Eastwood married Ashley Monk after about five months of dating. During the ceremony, Antonia tripped while walking down the aisle.

Antonia and Ashley were both suspicious that she did not trip accidentally and that Ashley's sister, Gemma, actually tripped her. Gemma and Antonia were not close, and the couple also believed that Gemma might be jealous that they were marrying after five months, though she'd been with her childhood sweetheart for 20 years without tying the knot.
