Sunday Night TV

I know that in this era of streaming TV that watching scheduled programming is very passe.  But an interesting observation is that at 9 pm on Sunday nights, there are currently 5 programs airing simultaneously that I watch.  There was a 6th, but I quickly dropped that.  The quality of these programs is variable to say the least, but not enough to stop my DVR getting a good work out.  This is the only time of the week that anything likes this happens.  Indeed, there are only a handful of scheduled programs that I bother watching during the week.  But Sundays are the exception, even beyond the 9 pm to 10 pm slot.  In that slot the 5 programs that I currently watch are The White Lotus (quality drama), Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light (which will probably remain unwatched on my DVR for a while because the original Wolf Hall is no longer free on streaming and I didn't get to finish watching all those episodes), Dark Winds (quality thriller), Watson (mediocre Americanized/modernized medical drama featuring Sherlock Holmes characters), and Suits LA (even more mediocre spin-off from the already fairly mediocre show Suits).  And the show that I stopped watching after 1 episode was David Blaine Do Not Attempt - after the realization that I really don't like David Blaine.
