And as viewers have sought deeper engagement with shows, so have we. Our weekly recaps, interviews and other coverage last throughout a show’s season — or as long as people still seem to care, in the case of Netflix, since it drops all the episodes at once — and not just at the beginning, as we used to. We covered the final season of “Game of Thrones” as if it were a six-week-long Super Bowl, though that was an exceptional situation, given the scale of the “Thrones” phenomenon.

You probably have a sweet home entertainment setup. Tell us about it.

It’s not that sweet, but it does the job. I have a couple of Samsung LCDs, one in the living room and another in my home office. The living room one is actually a 3-D set, purchased a few years ago when TV makers were trying to make 3-D a thing again. I’ve watched exactly one thing in 3-D on it. (That said, it was “Gravity,” and it was awesome!) That set is attached to a Bose soundbar, and the other to a Yamaha surround system.

I still have cable TV for a variety of reasons, regrettably — it’s expensive, and the customer service is reliably terrible — but the biggest overall evolution, in general, has been the shift from linear to app-based television. Most of my watching is now done via network apps on Apple TV, including screeners of new series. It has been a long time since I got a DVD in the mail.

The cable goes only in the living room set. I use a Google Wi-Fi mesh system to make sure I can seamlessly watch stuff for work in the office while my wife and daughter watch whatever in the other room.
