Don't forget, it's not just Starz. It's Encore and IFC as well. I've got a Greg the Bunny IFC marathon Season Pass

Pretty good stuff.
Last night I went to bed and woke up with
Sin City, Hitch, House of Flying Daggars, Blade 3, and National Treasure all TiVoed. Hostage is recording soon too. Im sure a lot of those are just popcorn movies, but aside from Sin City, I haven't seen any of them. Pretty cool.

Still time to tivo the classic Angels in the Outfield-esque film featuring the acting of Kareem (and of course Jim Varney): Slam Dunk Ernest, on ENCw (channel 527) at 9:30am eastern!

I missed most of the weekend, but I guess I'll grab Butterfly Effect in an hour.

Thanks, OP!

Does anybody know what time the free preview ends? I think the Showtime preview awhile back kept going past midnight pacific time, but I didn't know when they actually cut it off.

My free DirecTV + unit they gave me--no contract was needed--for being with them for 5 years wasn't allowed to record anything on the free preview channels WTF. Ended up recording the same stuff david12 did and that Cursed movie with Ricci on my MythTV.

I turned off the HBO package after Rome and turned off SHO after Sleeper Cell. Wont turn them back on until Deadwood, Huff and so on return for new seasons. So I'm thinking about a possible switch on for Starz.
