I really feel this article. My boomer mother has kept a TV running her whole life. These days, she's either watching some reality show, a Blue Bloods marathon, or a CBS procedural. It's really depressing.

My mom keeps talking to me about funny commercials she's seen, as if I have any idea what she's talking about.

Sounds like mine also.

Add in a 90's medical drama of some sort with a patient flat-lining for 2 or 3 minutes straight.

Or the annoying AF "dun-dun" from whatever "law & order" series she's watching.
