“When you watch a favourite re-run, you typically don’t have to use any effort to control what you are thinking, saying or doing,” said lead researcher Jaye Derrick. “You are not exerting the mental energy required for self control or will power. At the same time, you are enjoying your ‘interaction’, with the TV show’s characters, and this activity restores your energy.”
Watching a re-run of a favourite TV show may help restore the drive to get things done among people who have used up their reserves of will power or self control, he added.
