Well, if a mod wants to change the thread title to a more descriptive one I'm fine with that.

I recorded the Star Wars trilogy last week to have on the DVR for the kids but there's a friggin' Trojan ad during every commercial break. :wtf:

Let's look at the demographic they are going for here... kids and Star Wars nerds, neither of which are getting laid. Money well spent Trojan.

Well, we don't have a DVR, not enough good stuff on TV to justify us buying one either. We ditched cable 3 years ago because of the absence of decent programming and the commercials in favor of watching what WE wanted to watch on DVD, minus the commercials. Monday thru Friday we'll watch about an hour and a half of regular television (an hour while we eat dinner, and the 6:00pm local news), the mute botton gets a lot of use during that time. On the weekends we only watch the 6:00pm news and the mute button still gets a lot of use. That's it. That's all the regular broadcast television we watch. The rest of the time spent watching our television is spent watching my DVDs. The only TV shows we might watch on broadcast television would be NCIS, Fringe, and Supernatural, but because of the advertising we wait until they come out on DVD where we can watch them at our leisure. Again, no real need for a DVR as we don't care about waiting until they're released on DVD.

If I had to name one thing (besides the advertising) that we are sick and frelling tired of, it would be the HORRIBLE programming on television these days: If it isn't reality crap shows, it's stoopid sitcoms, game shows, dramedies, or a whole plethora of legal dramas. And even when they put a compelling, spellbinding, imaginative series on television, if they don't kill it with advertising, the suits pull it off the air after the first season (think Invasion, Space: Above & Beyond, Threshold, Surface, etc.), or the writers get lazy and kill it (think Heroes). Apparently, the suits must think what the people want is more stuff to rot our brains. I refuse to let them dictate what I watch. -kd5-
