Do people still watch "live TV" with commercials as they air on television?

We sometimes watch the news, but it's just annoying anymore, and the regular stations don't have much on that we even like with new shows, so we rarely watch them.

We watch Svengoolie sometimes. I like it. The movies are terrible and Mystery Science Theater worthy of riffing, but I actually like Svengoolie and the information he'll give about the actors and the corny jokes. Sometimes we may watch Comet. Watched Quantum Leap through it. I saw it sometimes as a kid, but finally saw it in almost its entirety last year. Same with Sliders. I watched it up to a point when it originally aired, but finally saw more episodes after the brother showed up (forgot his name). I'd stopped watching regularly back then after Jerry left. Interesting seeing the final episode of it.
