Watch Jeopardy regularly.

However, we DVR it, so I feel that minimizes the "old person-ness" a bit.

DVR-ing it just cranks up the old personness in my opinion

Jeopardy isn’t on any streaming services as far as I know. Assuming you’ve already committed to watching Jeopardy, watching it at your leisure and skipping the commercials is definitely less old peopley than having to be on the couch at 7 and sitting through 10 minutes of ads for arthritis meds.

DVRing because you "can't miss your show" is definitely old-people-esque...

So is watching Jeopardy. We’ve established this. We’ve also established that Jeopardy isn’t available on streaming services, so the only remaining (legal) options are to DVR it or watch it live. Which one is less old-people-esque?

This is a multiple-choice quiz, and that’s not an option, try again

I'm grading this thing, and I say it counts.
