I don't watch much TV so I try to listen/watch while crafting. My favorite program for this is The Chew because I can generally tell what is going on without glancing up to watch--a lot.
If the piecing is easy or repetitive I'll binge watch an involved TV series on Hulu Plus or listen to a thriller on Audible.com. If I have to pay close attention to the piecing, I'll listen to classical or 60's rock. Sometimes I pick the project based on what I want to watch or listen to :-).
I watch TV that doesn't require me to watch the picture constantly. Seems like most of the projects I've been working on this year require concentration, and when that's the case, I can't have anything else going on.
I have only been watching t.v. with my knitting lately. I think it's only because I have a hard time working audio books lately on my iPhone.
I am one of those, I like to knit with sports ladies.
One of my favorite series that is on our cable on demand for free is Band of Brothers. Sometimes I need some tissues, but I really, really love that series.
I love to listen to audio books. I love books in general, but sometimes, it's just hard for me to find the time to read. I listen to audio books on my commute and when I am at work. The library has a nice app where I download them to my phone, or I pick up a series from the library on occasion.
Not much of a TV watcher with exception of local and national news and Jeopardy! Sometimes I'm knitting, cross stitching or sewing down binding with those. But I might be playing solitaire on my iPad. What I found out just last night, I can knit on the sweater I'm currently knitting and read a book on my iPad! Oh my! I'm sure if I were doing anything besides a basic stitch it wouldn't work out but just doing a sleeve and increasing -- I can do both! Amazing.
