I know this is not the TV forum, so this is just for specific shows that those of us of that certain age would enjoy, whether retired or not.
Because I had so much time, I started watching The Kominsky Method. I don't know why I held off watching this until now. Anyone in their 60's or above would enjoy watching this show. Right now there are two seasons available on Netflix. Eight shows each and they are way too short, but the humor is great. I got more exercise laughing than I usually get in a day.
So, I wanted to post this here for other people like myself who enjoy humor that the older generation can get a real kick out of.
I would welcome any other suggestions that us boomers can enjoy.
Please don't move this to another forum. This is for the older generation.
Grace and Frankie on Netflix - Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin
My husband watches the stations that play old sitcoms - TVLand, MeTV and Cozi TV and I'm not sure what else. He watches Hogan's Heroes, All In the Family and other old shows.

I watch two episodes of Jeopardy every night, Mon.-Sat. On Sun. I watch cooking shows. Video recorders are wonderful.
TBH, this is sort of like all that media fodder about "best places for seniors." "Best places to retire". Fairly useless with a million exceptions and caveats. Channel surf for yourself. Explore. You have thousands of options now and you can't always predict what will strike you in a particular moment. If you don't like what you see, nothing prevents you from choosing something else. FWIW, if someone recommends entertainment to me because I'm "over 60" (and I am), chances are I'll find little to nothing to like about it.
We have been watching a lot on Amazon Prime. They have some really good series.
Specifically we have enjoyed The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, Bosch, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Jamestown.
There were others but I can't recall off the top of my head.
We were going to watch Blow the Man Down but 10 minutes into it DW said "I can't watch that!". I think I'll watch it when she goes for her daily walk one morning.
Ton of good stuff on steaming tv/movies.. Netflix’and Amazon prime is what we use
poke around, explore. I can’t tell you what to like, but we find Corner Gas, Parks and Recreation, and Father Brown great.
I signed up for the free first month of Netflix and just finished the last 3 seasons of Longmire. I may watch the Kominsky Method next, although Amazon says that the new season of Bosch is coming soon.
Amazon Prime: Mentalist, Corner Gas (was better before they injected ads) Netflix: IT Crowd
Also enjoyed the travel series Departures that use to be on Netflix (but now it's behind the Amazon Prime paywall).
The Kominsky Method and Grace and Frankie we’ve been enjoying on a Netflix
