Record Alert for Wed Jan 7 (9-11 pm timeslots)

RECORD ALERT for Replay/TIVO owners. The madness of NBC continues.

West Wing is on from 9-9:59 and Law & Order is on from 9:59-11. If you record Law & Order this may interfere with any 9 pm recordings you have set up.


It also looks like NBC is going to do this regularly - I looked ahead in the schedule.

Yesterday, I made the conscious decision to just start bootlegging NBC's better shows and stop watching the others. Aside from Scrubs, I bailed on their Thursday line-up when they started this crap, and I refuse to be bullied by this latest tactic.

Yep. I already did this with Friends last year. I was going to watch The Apprentice but now I am not going to because of this crap.

I just keep one ReplayTV recording the NBC shows I do watch, so far no conflicts in between other stations so far but I do have 3 of these ReplayTVs to help in these situations (thus, a non-typical TV viewer).

Yeah, I could rework my programming schedule to accomodate this, but I'm stubborn and hate to be pushed around. What if everyone does this crap at different intervals each night? **** that. I'm sure the RIAA is pleased with the way their customers have responded to being bullied, so it makes perfect sense that NBC would adopt the "buy/watch our product ... but screw you" stance. It's always a successful business model.

There is a plethora of DVDs sitting on my shelves were this trend to continue. For now, it's tolerable.
