Weirdly, the best comp I can think of how I feel about it is Will and Grace, a very consistent show with characters you just enjoy spending time with that occasionally speaks delicately on real world issues other shows aren't talking about (in this case the struggles of public schools and teachers) that is one of the best shows network sitcoms of its era, but still just not quite Friends or Seinfeld (or here Ted Lasso)

I've always thought of it more as a constant balancing act where I strive to achieve 100% attention between 2 screens

Can't have a good show ruined by the second screens content being too engrossing.

Great show, always serial = full attention Good shows, usually seriel = paired with tbs gaming Decent seriel shows, any non serialized = fps gaming Nonfiction (news, sports, documentary) = "background tv" for work, socializing, cooking, etc Edit: 2 more notes "Drunk tv" = shows I don't mind forgetting an episode here and there while watching TV after a night out.

I also refuse to watch reruns so I guess that's the unwatchable tier
