I've "watched" The West Wing probably about 30 times, but really I've only actually watched it about 3 times. All the other times were listening to it while commuting. It works really well as an audio-only show.

Also I like to watch Masterchef Australia while knitting, but even when I'm looking right at the TV, I'm not actually paying a lot of attention to the visuals of the show, because I'll be focusing on the knitting chart I have up on part of the screen so I don't lose my place in the project I'm making.

How much attention do you need to be giving something with your eyes to be considering watching it? If I'm watching a show and get up to get something from the kitchen but don't pause it, am I no longer watching it?

Makes u think.

I knew a guy who'd watch TV episodes on his lunch break at work on his laptop through VLC at 1.5x speed so he could fit two episodes into a single break.

Guy was a douchebag.

Mafia chat, I'm looking for a new Netflix tv show to have on in the background while I do stuff, and I don't want to watch Lost again unless I have to. I generally like sci-fi and horror stuff, but I'm open to all sorts of suggestions.

The 100 is a really good show with the caveat of the pilot being godawful and the show taking about three episodes to find its feet.
