first, I will give them a subtle hint... which is either I pause the show or mute the show if it is live, and then focus on the chat chat chatty chat till they're done or slow down, and I will do it as many times necessary

and if right away or later ask, why did I pause or mute... I will explain to them (without telling them how annoying it is) that I just can't properly pay attention to both at the same time so I have to pause/mute one... lmfao and the screen is the one with a remote

and then I take it from there... lmao

some are more considerate next times... others won't care and keep going, and if that happens then it depends on who they are to me and much I like them, I could either just walk out... or I just focus on the chat with them and forget about the TV

Kiss them on lips like smooching fir a minute.

And run your hands through their hair.

Now they are wondering why you did that and can become silent wondering whether you like them and why did you do that 😂😂

And you can enjoy your show 😜

  If you are both watching a show and they keep talking about the show while watching it it won’t solve anything to pay attention to them they are watching the show it’s what they are talking about 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'll politely say "hey we gotta listen or we can't hear" because saying "be quiet" can hurt someone's feelings.
If they continue then I'll probably keep reminding them and if they don't listen, I'll make an excuse to leave. Then watch it on my own lol.

I guess for me, I would just end up letting the show run and because I'm too polite I wouldn't say anything. And then I would go back and rewatch it at some point without all the distraction.

Pause the show and talk. What’s more important… imagination or the human?

I pass the time day dreaming about killing that person in a variety of exciting and creative ways and once we have parted company I never interact with them again.

Get one of those survival horns for boaters.
Warn once. Use the horn each and every time after that.

I pause the show and then verbalize it if they persist afterwards when I resume.

  @VIVANT Ohhhh. I just read your other comments. Personally I don't mind when people talk during movies, as long as they keep it to a minimum. I like people who are bubbly and expressive. It shows they are in love with life and comfortable being themselves.
  
  My only rule is don't speak in complete paragraphs lol. And ESPECIALLY don't talk while the characters are talking! 😱😅
