View Full Version : When you are home and eating a meal, do you always need to have
TVFactFan 04-03-2016, 01:48 PM something interesting on TV to watch?
I plan my meals around TV because it makes the food more enjoyable:lol: Like right now I am hungry and my brunch is barbecue wings but I don't want to eat them while watching the Brady Bunch
Anyone else need to have something on TV to watch when they eat a meal?
TV doesn't matter to me when I eat a meal, but I know if I'm watching a sitcom at late night it makes me want a snack. There's Something about watching funny TV makes a person in the mood to eat.
Svenfan1234 04-03-2016, 01:56 PM No. That's just plain weird :lol:

So when you eat what do you normally do?

I eat meals usually based on the clock, not the show. I have the TV on, but it's just background noise.
I do this weird thing where I talk to people during meals. Just me....?
To answer the original question, if I lived alone, nah, who cares what's on.

:yeahthat
I did like it when TBS aired "Mama's Family" at 5:00 and 5:30. That worked out perfect for suppertime.

so what are you doing? reading? looking at the wall? or just eating the food?

So are you the type that just looks at the food and eat it until it's all gone?

When I eat, I like to give most of my attention to the food. Savor the flavor! Lol

Ok got it lol I guess I can do that but I like to make my food more tasty which is why I am patiently waiting for 3:30pm:lol:

Honestly, I never really thought about it. I'll be eating alone tonight though (well,the dog will be here). Looks like my watching will be the women's Final Four and MLB opening day. And yes, I know, you hate both of those.
Adamantium 04-03-2016, 04:00 PM Yes, I watch TV while I eat. I get grossed out easily, so I have to have pre-approved shows to eat to. I mostly play DVDs when it's time to eat because otherwise I get stuck eating during a long commercial break.
Although lately, I find myself eating while playing computer solitaire and having YouTube videos of "To Catch a Predator" on in the background.

Wait u will be watching the Women's Final Four???
That's it Opus, stop posting and cancel your internet service ASAP:lol: :lol:

Now that's good eating....:)

Lol, I can't seem to get enough of that show. Luckily YouTube has extended interview videos, which include them talking to Chris Hansen and then getting interrogated by the police (and in some cases them being processed). Plus they have their phone conversations to the decoy, too.

Go UConn. I forgot today is Sunday, so that also includes squeezing in The Simpsons, which I'm guessing you hate too. I haven't been this bummed since I found out Bonnie doesn't like hockey.

My TV schedule for tonight is Warriors vs Blazers at 8pm
Peek at Johnny Carson at 10pm and switch back and forth to see Gabe Kaplan and Cindy Williams
Bob Newhart at 11:30pm
Babalu 04-03-2016, 05:20 PM I hung a flat screen on the wall in my new kitchen so when I'm eating the TV can be on if I'm in the mood. As far as something interesting, I can usually find something worth watching.

I hope you're a Ranger fan.

Curious about your feelings about the Flyers. Do u see them doing any damage?

If they get in, I give anyone at least an outside shot. The NHL playoffs seem more wide open then the NBA's. Washington has been the best hockey team this season. If the Warriors or Thunder don't win the NBA title, the basketball world would be shocked. If Washington doesn't win the Cup, I think the hockey world would be less surprised.

I think you can say that about baseball or hockey.
No one expected the Phillies to win the WS in 2008
No one expected the Flyers to reach the stanley cup finals in 2010

By the way, I meant Spurs, not Thunder.

Shows from the 50s and 60s with everyone eating cookies and drinking milk make me hungry.

When I see scenes at a breakfast or dinner table on shows such as Leave it to Beaver , it's like you can almost smell the food!!!! :) ;) :happyface

You're right! They really had it good back then too - big slabs of bacon, hunks of ham, piles of pancakes, and globs of eggs coated in butter. It's like cholesterol hadn't been invented yet. :lol:

Let me guess. By lifelong you mean you became a *****der fan in the early 1980's?

They started 1972, I got hooked mid-seventies, probably somewhere around '75-'77. How long have you been afflicted? Since that tragic summer of 1994?
I have to be doing something while I'm eating if it's just me. It might be watching TV or reading something, but I can never just eat.
MrCleveland 04-06-2016, 01:19 PM I don't need the TV to eat my meals, but since I'm at home I'll watch whatever my mood is.
I've been watching Doug while I have my meals lately.
I wish they'd make The Honker Burger a franchise!
mets82 04-06-2016, 04:39 PM Usually, I can find something to watch while I'm eating. I like to have the tv on. I mean I dont have to wait for a certain show to eat. I just eat whenever and whats ever on is on.
Zoneboy 04-06-2016, 04:49 PM If I'm at home, all my meals are consumed in front of the computer with the TV or radio on for background noise.

1967-68.
