Railcards do not give discounts on Season tickets. Remember, not every ticket type is available for every journey that you might want to make, so it's always best to check before booking.
To stress, it's only worthwhile over a Two Together Railcard if you require more flexibility around how many people can travel. On any trip 1 to 4 adults and up to 4 children can travel on the card. - Buy tickets as far in advance as possible to get the cheapest fares.
A general rule of thumb is that Off-Peak will begin at 09:30 Mondays to Fridays in cities and large towns, and 09:00 across the rest of the network. Weekends and Bank Holidays are Off-Peak all day.

Yes, you can use your 60+ Oyster card in conjunction with a Gatwick to Z6B single ticket on Southern or Thameslink. You don't have to hop on/off anywhere and the train doesn't have to stop at the Z6B station which I believe is Coulsdon South on that route.
