I don't really watch a lot of TV, to be honest. I'm more of a movie girl, or I Netflix stuff.

I am a Netflix/DVR junkie. I don't like to watch TV without a plan.

What hasn't surprised me is that audiences, as we found starting with box sets, want control, to decide how they watch it. Appointment viewing is slowly being put slightly behind.

For me, personally, I watch pretty much everything on Netflix, and I watch all the episodes in a row, when I can.

Speaking from personal experience, I watch zero shows when they air. The only shows I watch live are awards shows or sports. Shows like 'True Detective' and 'Game Of Thrones,' I watch every episode, but I don't watch them as they air, and I think that's becoming the case for people more.

We're in this really different world of television where everybody is binge watching, and it almost doesn't matter where you're airing.

TV and appointment viewing is a thing of the past for the youth.

I actually don't watch much TV, but my goal is to watch 'Downton Abbey.' I want to catch up on the series... that's like my style.

Appointment viewing is dead, and I think it is going away.

The way that we're consuming what we watch. Netflix, binge-watching, destination agnostic were not terms. It was about networks, times, dates.
