Off the couch.
Fun! I’ve been quoting 4d to anyone who’ll listen.
Thanks, Jay!

Well I was so busy looking for somehting diabolical I ignored the thought that came to me at the very beginning, as well as the show name that popped into my mind. It wasn't diabolical just cleverly disguised and I needed someone to say "stop looking for something diabolical" (thanks rjy).
So off the couch and awaiting Bens Tuesday MOAT.
Fun puzzle, killer grid. Though I knew (of) 39D I did not know those were the words and I only knew 42D from crosswords. Thanks for the puzzle Jay

NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

@Bird Lives Jay - just in my wheelhouse but I just printed it out. I think that the last TV show I watched with any regularity was MASH and most I have never heard of. According to our daughter we live in a cave

If we ever have an MMM month with no constructor names given (for some unknown reason...), I'll bet I could pick out the Bird Lives puzzle!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Off the couch. Did the grid this morning and stared at it for a while. Sat down for dinner and took another look. Boom! 30 seconds and I had it.
Fun way to start off the week.
Great show, too.

The first day of binge-solving finds 52 people off the couch, at least metaphorically. As some of the photos here document, several solvers are still lying there with the remote.

(If I’ve omitted you, please let me know.)
Some commenters seem a tad diffident about their extensive knowledge of TV territory. But hey, these are good shows — or so I’m told. I of course watch only the occasional PBS documentary.
Nudges and more solvers tomorrow.
