A friend told me recently she always feel sleepy in day time as she went to bed very late for watching a TV series every night, she do not want to miss a single episode. I tell her why not watch them on internet, with it, we can watch it whenever we want, whenever we have time. Anyway, she said she still like the traditional way to watch them on TV. How about you, mylotters? Do you like watching TV series in computer? How many hours the longest you watch a TV series at a time? Have you ever so crazy to watch it for more than 10 hours in a day?

Hello karen,
i am not a tv watcher,and not especially with tv series.I only watch news and sometimes when i saw in our daily board a good movie which my daughter had the habit of listing scheduled for it to be aired.
I maybe sit infront of our tv sets 2-3 hours 2 times a week...just for watching a movie that caught my interest...and nothing more.
Have a great weekend my dear

Hello, Jaiho, that is really a good habit. I am wondering why there are some people get addict to it, while others shows less interest on it. What do you think of the TV series? The story is too fake? Or you are too busy to watch it? Or you think it waist your time?

Hmmm. I don't like watching it on internet, but I do download a lot of tv shows and put it in a USB so I could watch it in our TV through the DVD. LOL. but sometimes, I do watch it on computer, and I don't really mind.. I am with you, on the watch only when you feel like it, or when you have time.. during holidays or weekends, that's what I do, catch up on some series, specially those that are not shown here in our country.. Once I got addicted to criminal minds, I think I watched the whole season in 2 days. hehehe. I got scolded for that, cause i was in my parent's house at that time, and it was already super late, and I still don't want to sleep cause I want to finish the whole season right then and there. lol.

Hello, Ingkingderders, thanks for your response. I must say I am crazy on TV series, I used to watch it on weekend and without a break for dinner, I prepared some food before I turn it on. Anyway, I feel it's quite waisting of time, and I control myself not to watch it too often, plus I have my son to look after, I really have few times to watch it now. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

watching television is really addicting. hehehehe.. You could just watch one episode after another and you wouldn't even notice the time. The next thing you'll know is that it's already late and you weren't able to do anything else for the day. hehehe. When I was unemployed, I have many days like this one. hahahaha.

Hey,
Well for some reason, I would actually prefer watching TV series on the TV rather than on the computer. I don't really know why, but I would prefer to watch it on the TV. Watching it on the computer is just boring. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Hello, Aimeedia, try again with adding the word " English version" to your searching key word and see if it works. Good luck.

Hi karen, just like your friend, I do like to watch tv series on tv screen. Recently my hubby is indulgent in watching a chinese tv series about BaoGong. He was a great chief justice in the lengthy story. He was a selfless and wise man with blackavised face. We could see a small crescent moon on his forehead. I think black face and crescent moon are his trade marks.
The series starts at 11.30 pm. when I accompany hid to watch the tv, I still reading mylot posts or try to write email. I would pause for a little while if the storyline is really attractive. I like watching series on tv. I feel more comfortable watching movies or series on bigger screen. What's more we do have a good quality sound system amplifier and speakers. Plus, I could still surfing net at the same time
Happy posting!

Hello, Ikbooi, I am glad that people in your country watch our Chinese TV series. Isn't it too late for a TV series started at 11:30pm? I used to watch it at late night before, anyway, I quit it now. I have to get up at night to feed my baby son. I have to go to bed earlier, or I feel too tired at day time.

I've once watched a marathon for 7 hours straight, it was of Law & Order Special Victims Unit. Of course, it was with a friend, and it went from about 8pm to 3 in the morning, and of course we were playing games and talking on the phone and doing other things while watching it - so it wasn't as if we were just stting there with our eyes glued on the TV.
I've watched a few episodes of my fave TV shows on the internet, but I really enjoy watching them on an actual TV better. The resolution and quality is MUCH better, and you don't have to worry about it stopping to load or having to buffer or anything like that (if you have a slower computer..like me.) But it IS convenient to have some of your shows on the internet - just in case you miss an episode here or there.

I only follow a few TV series which I really like. And since most of the latest episodes of my favorite TV series are not shown here in our country, I end up watching them online just to catch up. Haven't had time to that lately but whenever I can, I just watch a single episode a day. I don't think I can watch for 10 hours straight though =)

I have watched some dvd's on the computer, but I find that watching them on tv is much better as the sound is better and of courxe the bigger screen, andnot such a strain on the eyes. I have bad eyes, so doing to much on the computer doesn't make things any better. Sometimes on the weekend, when I get tired of beign on the computer, I will watch a dvd on the tv. I have a nice system, so I might as well use it. Have a good day, and hapy mylotting.

I enjoy watching tv shows online. I have a couple different sites also that I watch new release movies online too. Free of charge with no downloading. I haven't watched any in a long time, but when I get the chance I find a tv show that I enjoy watching and I watch a couple episodes. I still watch regular tv, but if I miss a show, I go and find it online. I have watched over 8 hours a couple times watching a tv series online. That was "The Hills". I am addicted to that show. I haven't done that for awhile though. If you want a couple websites that have free shows and movies with no download, let me know! Add me as a friend and I can send you the links!

Yes I watch TV series on computer, I am a fan of FRIENDS and Mind You Language series that I regularly watch on my laptop as they are really humoourous and makes me relieved from the stress that I have after a heavy work in office.

The longest time I could remember is 8 hours of watching GTO japanese live series. I cant get enough of it. It is actually a TV series but not yet available on our local channels.
Lately, I don't get to watch primetime shows because of my busy schedule so I watch them over the internet... :)

I prefer watching TV series on the TV. I think too much exposure to the computer can ruin my eyes and besides, the computer monitor is small. I only watch TV series on the internet if I miss an episode of my fave show.
