DO you like to watch television ?
gpt
Yes, I do like to watch TV though I mostly watch Netflix. How about you?
human
I watch Netflix, wish they had South Park, but they have a few good shows.
gpt
I never really got into Southpark though I do like the SImpsons. There is only one episode of the Simpsons where Bart doesn't appear and is not mentioned.
human
I have watched a lot of episodes, but never saw it. Do you still watch them ?
gpt
No, I haven't watched in a while. Pokemon is another thing I haven't watched in a long time. There are 750 episodes of Pokemon!
human
*eyes widen* Me too I have stopped watching the Simpsons, because there were too much episode and they were getting less and less original. Yet they had less episodes than Pokemon, I wonder how they stay original. 
gpt
Yeah, I guess you are right. I don't think episodes of Pokemon vary that much. They are pretty much the same. That's probably why I got bored of them.
human
*eyes widen* But there will always be kids to watch them, that's why they are still going after 750 episodes. Would you watch old black and white shows on Netflix ?
gpt
Yeah, there are some die hard fans out there. I do not watch black and white shows, no. What about you?
human
No, I don't think old black and white show were that good, except for a few exceptions, TV has evolved so much, for better (storytelling) or worse  (3D TV).
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Right? One day I decided to put on old episodes of Sesame Street for my kids because I remembered that they were better than the current ones. But once I did I could not stand how blurry they were! I was like yikes, how did we watch that?
human
It is not just the image, it is the story telling that was slower, and the way is was filmed was very boring, few plans, probably because there was probably just one camera.
gpt
Yeah but it was magical for me at the time. Maybe what we watch now will seem prehistoric in a few years. Ha. I liked how Thomas the Tank Engine used to be stop motion. Now it is computer animated. Did you know that Ringo Starr, George Carlin and Alec Baldwin have all narrated Thomas the Tank Engine for at least 52 episodes each?
human
*calm eyes* I thinks that's because everyone loves a good kid show. A good show is a good show for everyone. A bad show gets cancel really fast, like the English remake of That 70s show. 
gpt
*curls lip* Haha, yeah, I can't imagine it being as fun in British English.
human
Yeah, it was verbatim, so they did not change the dialogue, so you would have an american dialogue with an English accent, that's what probably killed it. Not enough adaptation. 
gpt
I agree. Do you ever watch TV on your cell phone? It's amazing what smartphones can do these days. One iphone has more computing power than the whole US nuclear icbm deterrent.
human
It was build in the 60s, it was the most capable computer at that time. But like today, cable were used to transmit data. But they were thicker. 
gpt
I wonder when cables carrying phone and internet data across the oceans were installed? They are only 2.7 inches in diameter and are on the ocean floors.
human
I think the first ones are quite old, but they still lay new ones, with fiber optics,  they can be as thin as 2.7 inches. 
gpt
*takes a step forward* Interesting. I still remember using the rotary phone! New York's area code is 212 because that is the fastest number to dial on a rotary phone.
