What I watched: Spring 2022

TLDR; blurb about adhd & too many options. skip to list of Netflix, Hulu, Discovery+ shows at bottom

What do you get when you mix Netflix, Hulu, discovery+, cable, and a few shared passwords with an ADHD diagnosis? Long lists like this: Shows You Tried To Watch, Comfort Shows, Unwatched New Seasons of Previously Finished Series, 

Shows, movies, documentaries, whatever – there are a ton of options, recommendations, categories, formats, and implications (like ads, says the media buyer) when it comes to picking a show. If ADHD paralysis kicks in as a result, I’m usually going for Schitt’s Creek, the Food Network, or Investigation Discovery channel. Or one of my other fixation projects. Maybe TikTok… sometimes Target. 

Sometimes, shows are like relationships; I don’t always commit but when I do, it’s for good reason (in theory). Sometimes, I’m in it for a good time – not a long time. See below for what I’ve been watching recently  – in full or partially, of course.
