Like many couples, Jed Kolko and Eric Rice like to see their programs together favorite TV shows. The hardest part is to press the power button at the same time.
Two of your favorite series are “Mad Men” and “The Good Wife”. They prefer to see them soon after transmission to avoid anticipatory information online.
However, Kolko and Rice, both economists, travel frequently for work. So your arrangement is: connect with their smartphones. Then one sets the desired TV in the house episode, while the other follows a tablet from the hotel room.
“We try to start at exactly the same time, “Kolko.
Simply gather around the television to share the experience of watching a program together feels increasingly quaint. Thanks to direct broadcast services, access per order and gadgets we carry in your pocket and hand bags, we can see what we want, when we want, where we want.
However, with all these choices, it can be difficult to align where, when and how of two occupied people.
A Kolko you Covista works well. However, complications seen tech required to produce the old-fashioned enjoyment. “Neither the problem nor the solution would have existed a few years ago,” he noted.
The difficulties are combined when excessive television included, the unappetizing term given to see (or hear in the case of the podcast) multiple episodes in one sitting.
There are at least two dynamics that complicate such consumption. First, the excess usually occurs when we are filling gaps of time; in other words, when we are bored or lonely. Second, if it is sufficiently addicted to a program, coordinate own schedule with someone else may be unsustainable.
In the modern romance, resist the urge to overindulge to see something with the lover, is the new equivalent to meet the parents or take a sober kiss.
“You know it when you find the chosen says no you will not see the next chapter series have been watching fluently together, “tweeted Casey McGee, 22 years old, a graphic designer in Boston.
McGee and her boyfriend, who lives as a time where she is, spent a weekend seeing December corrido “Misfits,” a British comedy. She called him and asked if he had seen more episodes and was shocked when he replied that he did not want to do without it.
“He values the experience with me more than just wanting to see the program “he said
was required to” Serial “- a podcast that tells the true story of a murder that occurred in Maryland, in 1999 – so many prominent consider this issue.
With addictive details detective story, alternately, cast a look of skepticism and faith, one way or another, almost all the characters, “Serial” published network a new release almost every Thursday during two and half months in the fall. It was possible to hear weekly episodes or a milestone which were available
“Serial” met two factors that demanded both over as group listening. The kind of suspense It looks like a great detective story has been read into the wee hours of the morning as well as a large number of characters and twists that evolve in frames, which make the fans look to others to discuss the changes in circumstances .
Molly Ringwald, an actress who long lent his face to the teenage angst of many people, put your finger in this new dilemma when he tweeted: “Defining devotion wait end of the day to hear the latest episode of “Serial” with your husband. “
phoned to Ringwald for comment. She and her husband Panio Gianopoulos have busy lives, including three children and her work as a songwriter and singer.
However, also like overdo programs like “Breaking Bad “and” Game of Thrones “. The travel itinerary Ringwald gives opportunities on the plane, but usually travels alone. She said she and her husband together make plans to see many episodes of a milestone, and promise not to be rogues and do it alone. “We’re very disciplined,” she said.
These are the hobbies you have to work in contemporary marriages. Jake and Mia O’Bannon are newlyweds in Oklahoma City. Jake O’Bannon has 22 years, is resident director at a local college and is frequently asked to attend evening performances. They like to watch shows together whenever they can, including “Downton Abbey” and “Parks and Recreation”.
child O’Bannon is respectful of their marital commitment to wait until she and your husband can together watch TV, but he has found it difficult to meet this media fidelity.
Recently I saw a sneak an episode of “Parks” when his wife I was at work, and then saw him with it, pretending it was the first time. “I tried to laugh at the right time, but I’m bad actor” he said. What cacharon. “Part of the experience is to see excessive television with others, observe their reactions and obsess all together,” said Mia O’Bannon, who forgave the transgression of her husband with “Parks”.
The entrepreneurs are working to smooth logistics watch shows together. Rabbit is a new service that allows up to 11 people simultaneously watch one program on individual desktops.
“Sure, mobile and direct drive allows you to get in your cave and see something on your own, but that’s not what makes it fun to watch a television program, “said Michael Temkin, chief executive Rabbit.
You can share any content to which there is access via a computer and viewers can send text or Video Chat with each other on the screen while the program is going, the movie or podcast. “Seeing is very social,” Temkin said.
For Jeanna and Matt Thomas of Atlanta, challenges together watching television, something already complicated by time constraints due to work and parenthood, combined with the risk of anticipatory information.
A couple likes to accumulate episodes of shows like “Top Chef” and then view them in one weekend. To make sure not to sacrifice the frames and suspense in the name of finding time to watch a program together, the couple active filter functions on Twitter.
For example, Thomas adjusts settings so that any mention of a participant in “Top Chef” will be passed from its power source, and silences publications coming from Bravo, the network having “Top Chef” as well as those of Tom Colicchio, one of the judges in the program.
“You have to be really proactive,” Thomas said. “It’s really quite a task.”
