I Spy With My Eye

We now possess Sky TV. The particular package includes the four local stations we could receive with the Rabbit's Ears, and of course plus. For a three month trial, we've got Starz, and a bundle of HDTV stations (those may be more permanent). After the three months, we need to decide if we care to keep the bill low, in which case we'll drop about half the stations (probably including Starz).

The good news is SciFi is on the list that will remain, regardless. The bad news is apparently HBO is not on the list, at all. So no Deadwood for me, other than on DVD.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled life.

whooo!

IMHO, the HDTV stuff isn't worth it. There just really isn't enough content to justify paying for it.

If you want TiVo lessons (except it's called PVR or DVR depending on your receiver), I'll send Sarah over. She's a pro at it. But here's a quick tutorial: Find the show you want to watch, hit the record button, hit "create". All done.

We'll see how today goes. I've attempted the process of programming to record, and if it works fine. If not, more learning.
