What an insane thing to ask. 'normal people' is hard to define but yes the average person still watches TV. Plenty of weirdos still play for cable, most people stream, and I believe most on the fediverse probably sail the high seas as I do, but we're all still watching TV.
Really? You don't know any of them? You don't even know It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, a show that's been on since 2005? Abbott Elementary, Animal Control, and St. Denis Medical are all really good sitcoms, and aside from Joel McHale nobody looks like AI. Idk if it counts but Harley Quinn is pretty funny as well. Point is there's some pretty popular shows here, I doubt you're being genuine when you say you don't know any of them, and aside from that they're all starring real looking, real people. In fact I'd argue TV shows have never in the past cast as many normal looking people as they currently do.
That is my point exactly. The actors on St. Denis Medical and Animal Control are much more diverse looks-wise than sitcoms like Friends or How I met Your Mother or anything people praise from the past.
Why are you so angry? As I said in another comment, I've heard of 2 of them, so I was sort of exaggerating. Out of 25, that's not many and I don't watch any of them. I don't consider myself a normal viewing person. Now chill.
What gave you the impression that I'm angry? And given that in response to me you've taken back what you've said and clarified you were exaggerating both your lack of knowledge on the topic and your claims regarding the average person it sounds like you're angry at me that I called you on those. Let's call the whole thing off.
Not that serious man. Have a great day.
Are you attempting to troll me? You replied to me. I refuted your comment and you tell me to calm down, which for you to act like a basic conveyance of information is emotionally charged is a common troll tactic. I then ask what you're talking about and you tell me it's not that serious. Well it's serious now, buddy! You better start talking or I am going to FREAK. THE. FUCK. OUT. You interacted with me. You wanted this.
Bro
U mad?
I wasn't trolling you, but I kind of want to know what you really freaking the fuck out looks like.
Calm down. :)
Well it doesn't look like text lol Just having some fun with you. Work is a slog today -_-
I figured. You made me miss reddit a little, lol.
