      Same bro. I don’t get people who want to watch Dirty Dancing and The Lion King two million times. It’s good but… I want new things! New experiences! I get bored revisiting what I already know.

        Im like you. I’m a “give me new things”.

        it took me a few years to understand. Especially since I have a coworker who shared she plays the Office in the background, nearly every day for a few years.

        It’s comfort food for them. Why do some people play 1000+ hours of the same mobile games? Why do some people do those thousand piece puzzles?

        It’s just comfort and consistency.

          That’s exactly what fits the mould of my wife as well. She watches old stuff for comfort. Makes perfect sense. 👍

        I’m like the OP. I watch it once.

        If I want to watch it again, which hasn’t been the case for over a decade:

        1. Find the physical version. Often at a thrift store
        2. Sail the open seas
