Christopher Ward
You really didn’t.
Anthony Ward
Tv guide
Colton Johnson
they were at the start of each episode, in the intro. otherwise they didn't.
Christopher Thompson
The TV guide, zoomie
Jose Adams
Literally everyone had a tv guide in the house, if not that the newspaper had tv listings.
Jordan Clark
They did not, they guessed and deduced them.
Parker Campbell
They didn’t. You would just ask your friend “have you seen the one with the/ where they/ when the” and if the show is good they immediately know or don’t know.
Ian Campbell

You are obssesed, take your meds feel the grass cope and seethe.
Parker Anderson
What am I suppose to do? Turn it on, and wander aimlessly?
Jace Reyes
This is unironically why Friends episodes are named the way they are.
Jayden Parker

kys
Oliver Cook

Josiah Sanders
TV Guide or their local paper if they really cared enough to know. Which 99% of people didn't.
Anthony Sullivan

Parker Wilson
My tv guide did. It had episode descriptions to
Logan Davis
>A TV Guide is never handed to another human being, it's always thrown
>zoomie
cringe boomer. You're not gonna 'keep on truckin' anymore you fat sack of shit. Stop creating generational wars when we all hate you equally.
Jaxon Kelly
Idk but my family would just make up shitty generic names for the episodes. Like the one where they go to the chinese restaurant, we'd just call it "the chinese restaurant" or when they get stuck in the parking garage, we would just call it "the parking garage"
Levi Rodriguez
I love the episode of Curb where Larry is still pissed off that he agreed to be on the cover of TV Guide
Xavier Perry
It was alright, I kinda miss movies with commercials.
Daniel Rogers
Jose Johnson
>Which 99% of people didn't.
Yes they did. What else did they have to care about back then? People read TV Guide religiously because there was nothing else to do. Everyone knew the names of the most popular Seinfeld episodes in the 90s.
Dominic Stewart
you can still have them, user
it's still kino to catch a random movie on IFC or something that you haven't seen in years. Streaming gives you too many options and it's hard to pick sometimes
Camden Perry
Don't vent to me you faggot zoomer. Take another xanny bar and complain to your tranny "friends" on discord instead.
Ryder Brooks
I never knew a single person who actually read the TV Guide, but weirdly enough in almost every one of my friends houses growing up it would be somewhere buried under other papers or books.
