    Audio glitch w/ TAGS: The Fourth Season

    I am starting to make my way through season four and have noticed that some episodes do not have a laugh track. "Opie the Birdman" and "A Black Day for Mayberry" don't while the others on disc one seem to have the laugh track in place. Is this a glitch, or did those original eps air without a...

    I recently bought this Sony stand alone DVD recorder / burner and it has really worked like a champ.

    Read about Blockbuster doing away with late fees here. Maybe I'm not thinking outside the box enough, but how will this help Blockbuster and more importantly, will it mean anything to the DVD format? Mods, feel free to move if this is in the wrong spot. Peace, DM

    Attn "Who's Line?" Fans. New Drew Cary's Green Screen Show

    I pulled this off the 2004 Fall TV Line Up thread. This is the first I've heard. Looks like the whole Who's Line cast is coming with the notable exception of Wayne Brady. Loved that show, but this sounds like a limited version of Who's Line. Seems like it might be more produced and less...

    I'm a potential Dish Network customer. Any advice?

    I'm considering this Dish Deal at the very bottom of the page. Never gotten satellite service before. Not interested in the whole PVR deal either. Comcast HD is not available in my area and nobody knows when it will be. Does this seem like a good deal? Maybe I'm missing something, but it...

    Toshiba DST-3100

    Well, it looks like this box may really happen. Onecall has it listed, but out of stock. It is kind of nice to see these products become a reality. I hope Toshiba gets this STB right. Anyone know if it is the manufacturer or the retailer that determines whether a purchaser of a Direct TV STB...
