    Miss Guided - season 1 thread

    Patrick - I think that this show is supposed to pair up with See Jayne Run for the 8 - 9 PM timeslots. Should make for an interesting hour. Glenn

    Stargate: The Ark of Truth - Official Press Release

    Mark, what did you do, fall asleep? The replicators first showed up 39 minutes into the movie, and they left at 1 hour and 25 minutes - which is only 46 minutes total, and they didn't take up all of that time. With the movie at 1 hour 37 minutes, that's less than half of it. I'm only posting...

    bringing back extinct animals....

    Yep, I can see it now. They clone some dinosaur and later it hatches some eggs. When the eggs break open, out pops a dodo bird! :) Glenn

    Are we Spoiled?

    Hank - that decision is clearly only for time-shifting of material on TV. The original premise was that everything that was taped would be seen within 1 week, and then recorded over. Most people only had about 10 tapes that they used over and over. I don't know if they have changed their...

    Are we Spoiled?

    James, the only reason that you haven't been arrested yet is because the studios figure that you aren't worth the effort. It is legal for you to tape shows to watch them later, but nobody ever gave you permission to tape and keep them. Glenn

    Land of The Free

    I think that the problem is just that we have way too many laws. We end up catching people breaking the silly ones, and this way our law enforcement agencies don't have the time to work on capturing the real criminals. Glenn

    Worst TV on DVD Peeves

    Mine lies with the menus. Having "play all" on the menu should be a law. Glenn

    This Really Stinks

    By this time it might be really hungry and thirsty. I am sure that you have a few items in your garage that will do the poor animal in! On the lighter side, you could nail the corpse to your mailbox post. I'll bet you that no one would ever hit it again. (You might not get any more mail...

    Now that Walmart and Best Buy are Blue-Ray only

    As was noted when this war started, some people don't have any reason to upgrade because the studios have slowed down on releasing new catalog titles, and until they start releasing stuff in quanity liked they used to do, sales will remain small. I don't have any HD player, but I have a place...

    I need help with new monitor

    Yeah, you're dealing with 4:3 video drivers. Your monitor should have come with a driver. 1440 x 900 is actually 16:10. Most monitors are this way so that you can still have the Windows bar at the bottom. Widescreen monitors are so much better! Glenn

    Why does my computer turn on and off by itself?

    I don't know what is going on, but have you registered it and gotten all of the updates? Some of them really do fix problems. After that I'd call the store up. Glenn

    New STAR WARS film coming to theaters August 15, 2008

    I think that you should get this thread retitled to New STAR WARS cartoon... Glenn

    Anyone know of a website that lists individual episodes?

    I don't think that there is one. What shows are you asking about? Glenn

    Tax Rebates Under the Stimulus Package?

    Ditto to what Brian said. It also sounds like they could hand out checks to homeless people. Hey, they need the money too, right? Glenn

    What's the cost of cable TV for you?

    Dave, they don't want to sell analog cable anymore because they MUST phase it out within the next 4 years. Having analog and digital service for the same price is a very good thing. If digital service was even $10 higher, they could force everyone to go digital by dropping analog service...

    WGA set to strike - TV Season could be truncated/delayed

    Are any of the "other" workers that are now not working getting unemplyment insurance? (Like the stage hands and such). Or, how long will it take for LA to go belly up? :) Glenn

    What's the cost of cable TV for you?

    That is so strange. I have TW analog and get 88 channels for $45/month. You must get some good ones so that they can charge you $17 more! Glenn

    Which Channals Broadcast in HD

    Ain't going to work. Just because a channel broadcasts in HD doesn't mean that anyone can get it over their CATV. Your best bet is to look at your last cable bill, go to their online site and look there first. Depending on where you are, the cable companies are converting everything over...

    Since WB went BluRay Exclusive, Any SD Fans Going Over?

    Whenever a new technology emerges, the "first" buyers are not only paying for the machine, but the new technology too. That is why every year or so, the prices on DVD players has gone down. After the 'factory' pays for the expenses it had in order to manufacture the new equipment, they have a...

    Since WB went BluRay Exclusive, Any SD Fans Going Over?

    There is no reason for anyone to double-dip on any title, unless you want it in HD. I am not advocating that anyone trash their SD collection - crap I have about 1600 disks, and they aren't going anywhere. I was going to get Dragon Wars in SD, but I think that I am going to wait on that now...

    Since WB went BluRay Exclusive, Any SD Fans Going Over?

    Consider the stores today that carry all 3 formats. I am sure that they would love it if there was only one format again. They would be more than happy to dump the SD & HD formats without any problem. Any existing stocks in warehouses could be distributed to the stores, just to get rid of them...

    Since WB went BluRay Exclusive, Any SD Fans Going Over?

    IMO, I don't think that some of you understand what is going to happen. As soon as the war is formally over, the only new releases will be on BD. There will be a massive SD close-out sale, and once they are gone, there will be no more. By the end of this year, BD players will be down to about...

    Vista Folder/Icon Views Question

    I am not sure if this is what you want, but if you right-click on the icon, and go to properties, and then customize, the bottom section is for changing the folder icon. Glenn

    Hopefully some insight to this Split-Season DVD set argument

    There doesn't seem to be any consistancy to what the studios are doing. If 'X' % of the people around in the '60's watched the 'Fugitive', and say 10% of those viewers (that are still around) want to buy it on DVD, doesn't the studio already have a rough idea about how many people will buy...

    Someone should steal this invention;

    There are 300 & 400 models out too by Sony & Pioneer. Sony once had a model out that would even flip double-sided disks, but they stopped making that, I think. They need to come out with an HD or BD unit! Glenn

    Someone should steal this invention;

    Ah yes, the good old days. The caddys didn't work out. As an alternative, why don't you get the kids a dvd changer? Glenn

    HD programming in 1080P

    Actually Joe, no. At least not where I am. I got a 1080p DTV and I only have a subscription to analog cable (no box). So just for fun I had my TV do an analog & a digital scan for channels. I get about 85 analog channels, and it already had those, but then it found about 250 digital channels...

    HD programming in 1080P

    It would be nice to get those in 1080p, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I know that some of the stations aren't exactly loaded, and don't want to buy just the digital equipment by the deadline. However, once they do get going, if one station in an area broadcasts in 1080p, I think that...

    WGA set to strike - TV Season could be truncated/delayed

    In Leno's case wouldn't it be - he'd have to sell off some of his cars? :) Gee, its been 1 month already. I am so glad that I have DVD's to play. As long as we're talking about money, who in their right mind would do some work (of any kind), and get paid less than your work was worth...

    WGA set to strike - TV Season could be truncated/delayed

    Ok, so which is harder - writing a show or acting in it? Doesn't the cast get residuals every time a show reruns? Everyone involved with the show should get paid the same way - maybe not the same amount, but at the same rate. If an actor gets $2 everytime the show airs, shouldn't the writer...
