There will be seat back TVs with various options for movies and tv shows. Depending on the aircraft it may also have wifi.

Bring a decent seat of earphones. Preferably NC headphones. I take a seat of cheap ($15) earphones which are about 10 times better than the AC ones for TTL.
If IFE is dead and you can, move seat. Otherwise flag a FA down to restart it. You may have to ask several times and wait but I've nearly always gotten IFE working, or at least playing something. Not always what I wanted, nor with working controls but jabbing the screen eventually works. Normally.
It tends to be a quick flight anyway. I will still book a preferred seat that said, or at least something C (ie left hand aisle).

Aircraft are equipped with Thales Early Generation AVOD. Many of the early bugs were fixed, but bear in mind that the system is Circa 2006. Rouge Aircraft have WiFi progressively being installed, but the Mainline 76's are dwindling in number.
It's the aircraft that I fly most often although I'm transitioning to 787's, and dispatch reliability has been pretty decent.
