That TV remote is probably the upper limit of Earl’s modern electronics capability, but he is a master of it. And the Mute button inventor should have won The Nobel Peace Prize.
Dad used to act out in his sleep which was so entertaining to us kids. Once he was sound asleep in bed, carefully turning the upside-down pages of a book.

falling asleep in front a TV screen while there’s a program thereon is pretty much habitual for everybody

I can understand the urge, but predict it won’t work out well…
PS: In our house, Spouse controls the TV remote. Because she actually LIKES the damn teevee.

It is very satisfying to pick the right show to sleep through.

I don’t know why, but today’s strip reminds me of Adam Sandler’s film “Click”…https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0389860/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_44

Can’t even escape into Dreamland without Opal pestering him.

Try taking the remote out of his hand. See what happens.

If only, Earl, if only.
I’m reminded of the Twilight Zone episode where the delete key worked on a wife.

This cartoon explains exactly why I no longer watch TV. I swear, Hubby doesn’t want to know what’s on – he wants to know what ELSE is on.

Sadly the mute button isn’t big enough to mute women

It’s worth a shot. He can’t get her to shut up when he’s awake.

Earl, I agree. Change it to the Lingerie Football League and leave it there and see how long that lasts.

I think Nelson’s grandparents provide him with more entertainment than the TV.

My wife likes to switch back & forth, watching 2 or 3 shows at a time. I like to pick one show and watch it.
