The original movie (in which he appeared as an extra) and the remakes. He loves pretty much all sci-fi and anything that takes out in outer space or involves aliens so Prometheus, Interstellar, Contact, Signs, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Star Trek, etc. He’s also very into hiking and backpacking so when I was growing up he loved survivalist shows like Dual Survival and Survivorman. And he loved the PBS show Globe Trekker! I got him into watching Twin Peaks; he never watched it when it originally aired but he loves it now. He’s still mad that Guillermo del Toro’s adaptation of At the Mountains of Madness never came to fruition.
My mom has incredibly eclectic taste and every time I talk to her on the phone she tells me what she’s been watching. It can be anything—foreign films, documentaries, indie movies, romances, comedies, period dramas, random British TV shows, every police procedural or detective show, anything campy. She loves spooky atmospheric ghost stories and sappy emotional dramas most of all, or educational content that she can learn from and expand her perspective on things.
They both love Antiques Roadshow, X-Files, and Northern Exposure lol…

not specifically a christmas cookie but i make these around christmas. the chocolate chip to flour ratio is wild lol
1 cup unsalted butter - room temperature
3/4 cup + 1tbsp granulated sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp lemon juice
1 & 1/4 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup of rolled oats
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 & 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp salt
2 & 2/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 & 3/4 cups chopped nuts (pecans recommended)
mix together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. beat in eggs, vanilla, and lemon juice. blend in flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. fold in chocolate chips & chopped nuts (it will be absurdly difficult). refrigerate dough overnight. scoop & bake at 300F for ~20 minutes*
*they don’t spread if you refrigerate the dough for 24 hours & keep the remaining dough refrigerated as you’re baking them. also, i make the dough balls big (like a scoop of ice cream) & bake 8 at a time, so they can take several minutes longer than 20 minutes 😅 it’s a little time consuming but worth it imo
