Adult Sims are less likely to autonomously watch Kids Network if Toddlers/Children/Teens aren't nearby.
Fixed in Patch 1.58.63
@crinrict The two sims I've noticed being affected were Loves Outdoors, Cheerful, Outgoing, and Loves Outdoors, Cheerful, Creative (although the second of the two has since passed away from old age).
I feel as though they have switched to Kids' Network when the child was not in the room, but I don't remember exactly. I'll have to do some experimentation on that front. It's kind of hard to get the child out of the room--they live in Crick Cabana at Willow Creek, which as you probably know is a very small house on a tiny lot (which is part of the reason I want to move them to a different lot--not enough space).
I've recently discovered an interesting twist on this 'watch tv with' glitch (after this latest patch?). Father turned on Kids Network and his teenage son came over to watch and flipped the channel to comedy channel (action still says "watch tv with"). Traits mentioned above these two do not have. Dad's a bro, genius, geek and son's a loner and insane. IDK what if anything this adds, but I found it curious. 🙂
