Finally caught up on The Last of Us and it was incredible. Wife and I have been having actual conversations about the episodes which never happens. Looking for something new to start though, something that's not too heavy because work has been brutal. Tried getting into that new Marvel show but couldn't get through the first episode. What are you guys watching?
The Last of Us was so good. Wife and I actually had real conversations about the plot for days after. Haven't had a show hit that hard in a while.
It's nice when a show is actually good enough that you want to talk about it instead of just zoning out. That's quality time together honestly.
I haven't gotten to it yet but everyone's been saying the same thing. Putting it on the list. What else have you two been watching that's been worth the time?
This is nice to see. Parents watching actual quality TV together is underrated. We usually just collapse at night but when we find something good it's like dating again for an hour.
Nice. We've been trying to find something good to watch after the kids go down. Might have to check that out. How many episodes in before it really hooks you?
The Last of Us was so good! My wife and I did the same thing. It's nice when you actually find a show that grabs both of you. We've been stuck trying to agree on what to watch for weeks before that.
That's what I love about a really well done show. Gets you and your partner talking about actual stuff instead of just zoning out. What's next on your list?
Those conversations are the best part of being a parent, honestly. When you can just sit down with your partner and enjoy something together without the chaos of the kids for a minute. Treasure that.

The Last of Us is so good. My wife and I watched it together too. Haven't had that happen in forever where we're both locked in on the same show. Might be our best parenting tool honestly, having something we can actually talk about without kids interrupting.
