The gist is that I can read faster than the person on TV speaks. I read the line, and then I can go back to reading my book. When the person is done saying the line I just read, I read the next line on the tv, rinse and repeat. If they stop talking I know I need to look because something other than dialogue is about to happen.
I don’t understand how you read the subs while looking away. Or are they listening to something else while watching the screen?

That is some impressive reading and multitasking skills! Fair play 😄
Good for you and all, but aren’t you interested in the acting? the way the lines are delivered?
No I hate tv, it’s the worst medium for me. I just watch out of social obligations, I have people who like the medium and want to talk to me about it.
