BOOKMARK: 2026 VIEWING LIST
Jan. 3rd, 2026 02:59 pm[Past: 08 | 09 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25]
As usual, I rounded all TV episodes (however viewed) up to the nearest half-hour mark and most movies to two hours total, then added in repeats. As with 2024, I watched more documentaries and "reality" shows than narrative fiction, many of them on my propped-up smartphone while doing repetitive tasks (blame the ADHD for that; I've found it actually helps). And I saw twelve movies in theaters, a high-water mark in post-pandemic times.
For posterity's sake: that adds up to 1985.5 hours of screentime (5.44 hrs/day). Anyway, on to my nineteenth year of tracking: started off as usual with a New Year's watch party with the BFF followed by a bunch of true crime for background noise while doing chorse and packing up the Christmas decorations. We'll see how it goes from here!
