My #1 favorite piece of electronics.
In the fall I'm switching to DirecTivo - two tuners - I can't wait!

You can try keeping box sets of half-hour shows (Sex in the City, Simpsons, Mr Show, anime series, etc.) by the DVD player for quick access when ever you've got 30 mins. to kill. Works for me when I'm home for lunch and I don't want to flip through endless soaps, infomericals and Jerry Springer.

I remember when we only had the three major networks, pbs and 1 independent. I think there was just as much interesting stuff to watch then than there is now. 100's of channels and nothing but infomercials.
They say that somewhere at all times Star Trek and I Love Lucy is being aired. Where? Certainly not on my tv.

It's about 1 AM right now and I'm struggling to find anything to watch. I'm ashamed to admit this, but at around this time, "Lifetime" usually airs an hour of "Mad About You". It's better than nothing, or at least better than "Golden Girls" and "Designing Women". They are airing "Brokedown Palace' right now, though, but the ending is all too depressing, so I guess I'll just watch "Cribs" for the millionth time...

Used to be 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm and post-10:30 (after late local news) were pretty good for classic tv watching on your local stations... classic trek, hogans heroes, wkrp, mash (of course), jeffersons, sanford and son, all in the family, and on and on. Now of course the cable nets compete fiercely for that stuff and manage their showings very carefully.
It's certainly a different scene than it used to be.
