Harp 1: Yes. We’re talking about TV.


 


Maura: Yes, the television. The beautiful, wonderful invention of at-home television.


 


Harp: Yes. TV. So today, we’re gonna start by talking about the basics, some general topics related to TV.


 


Maura: And then we’re gonna talk about trends in television, so what’s popular in the land of English-speaking TV right now.


 


Harp: Exactly. And then we’re gonna talk about our favourite TV shows of all time.


 


Maura: Yes. Those shows that still hold a special place in our hearts. So first, let’s talk about some basic vocabulary related to television because, really, there’s so much of it.


 


Harp: All right. So let’s start about by talking about the basics.


 


Maura: Yes. Now, if you have a television, you probably have this other little device, which is the remote control, because, well, people are lazy. They don’t wanna get up to change the channel on the TV.


 


Harp: Exactly. They like to sit on their couch and change the channel from there.

Harp: Yes, the flicker or the clicker.
