When you're watching your favorite TV shows and movies, do you like watching them with subtitles or not?

Personally, I love using subtitles to watch my movies and TV shows because it keeps me eye glued 100% on it so I don't miss any conversation.

Do you like using subtitles?
 
Occasional on hard to understand shows. But I like watching the show rather than staring at the subtitles. Never on sports, very annoying and not needed.
 
I don't like using subtitles at all when I'm watching a movie. They only distract me from enjoying the movie, and I also don't have any problems understanding what the actors are saying.
 
Subtitles are not something I use often when I am watching something on the television, I find that they can easily distract me when it comes to focusing on what I am watching and then I lose track.

The only time I find I use subtitles is when something I am watching is either not in English and I need the subtitles or if something I am watching is difficult to hear.
 
Subtitles come in handy when I’m busy doing something that’s loud, like if I’m vacuuming or something. In general, I’d rather just use my ears though.
 
I'm deaf in my right ear so I have to use subtitles when I watch movies or play video games as I tend to not be able to hear them too well. Subtitles help me from missing anything in a movie or a game.

Damn! Sorry to hear about your hearing problem. In this kind of situation, there's no way you wouldn't need subtitles all the time because It's necessary for you.
 
I prefer to not use subtitles as I find them distracting but if I am in a situation where it's hard to hear what I am watching, I will opt for subtitles so I can follow along with whatever I am watching.
 
I am not a fan of using subtitles at all unless I have to due to not being able to hear something I am watching.

I have always been distracted by subtitles and find I lose track of what I am watching.
 
Though most times I don't pay attention to the subtitles, but I like having them there just in case I miss something. Instead of straining my ears to hear what I missed, I can just read it.
 
As far as the conversation in the movie is in English, there is absolutely no need for subtitles. I only use subtitles for movies that are not in English language that I can understand.
 
I watch a lot of foreign movies. I don't like dubbed version, therefore, I watch foreign language movies in subtitles. However, the movies made in the languages I understand, for instance, English, I do not use subtitles, I find subtitles very distracting.
