    720p ok for Gaming?

    I'm looking at 32 inch tvs for my son's bedroom. I need to find one that has bluetooth connectivity but in the price range I'm looking in, bluetooth only is an option on 720p sets. Will gaming still look good on a 720p tv?

    When Calls The Heart

    Has anyone watched this on Hallmark? My wife and I just recently discovered it and we binged watched all 4 seasons on Netflix. I also just bought the first 3 seasons on dvd. It's a really great family show and I put it on par with Little House. In fact, the executive producer is Michael Landon Jr.

    Malcolm Young R.I.P. 11/18/17

    I am absolutely shocked that there wasn't a thread on this! I knew he had dementia but had no idea he passed away. I was just on youtube and noticed a video on all the musicians who died in 2017 and saw Malcolm's face on it. Been a fan of AC/DC's music since I guess 1978 when I first bought...

    LG OLED not playing Amazon Prime

    My daughter has Amazon Prime and tonight she clicked on the app and just gets a blank screen. It worked fine the other night and all the other apps work ok. Her Prime account is up to date. And we unplugged the tv too. Any advice?

    A Football Life

    Saw a couple of episodes on youtube and absolutely loved it. I bought seasons 1 and 2 but couldn't find season 3. I was watching episodes from season 7 on youtube so I was like, what gives?

    LED or OLED for 3D?

    I know everyone is raving about the 3D on the OLED but here is my problem. I'm ready to pull the trigger on the LG 55UH8500. I would LOVE to get a 55inch OLED but it's really out of my price range. My daughter offered to buy the LED for the family as an early Christmas present. My question is...

    TCM Big Screen Series: Singin' in the Rain

    I guess no one went out to see this? Took my family Sunday night to see it. I haven't seen the blu-ray yet but the picture quality was beautiful!! Not my favorite musical but thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a thrill to see the singin' in the rain number on the big screen. Probably the best looking...

    That's Entertainment

    Before I get rid of my dvd set, does the blu-ray set carry over all the extras that the dvds had? Tried searching for the review but came up empty.

    The Monkees New Album "Good Times"

    Anyone get a chance to listen to this? Most if not all the songs are up on youtube. It sounds great! Has a distinct 60's sound to the songs.

    Looking to buy the complete Alien soundtrack from Amazon but came across a Limited Edition 8 CD Box set (2 discs for each of the 4 movies). Does anyone have this?

    Dukes of Hazzard Flipper Disc Skipping

    Disc 4 of season 2 is skipping and getting "blockiness" all over both sides of the flipper, anyone have trouble with any of their flipper discs and has Warners been willing to replace them? This really ticking me off.

    Need Help With A Commercial

    There was a commercial I guess back in the '90s that I really liked but can't for the life of me remember what product it was for, maybe some of you tv junkies can help me out. It started out with a guy entering an elevator and a hot looking girl enters and stands next to him. He looks over at...

    Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

    Am I the only one who hates all the musical numbers they show during the Macy's parade? I absolutely love parades. I enjoy watching the marching bands, floats, etc. but out of 3 hours of programming, maybe only a half hour is devoted to the actual parade. I was hoping when CBS started showing...

    Rebels Season 1?

    Has anyone heard when Disney might decide to release this on dvd/Blu-ray? I don't have the Disney channel that this is shown on so I've missed most episodes. I worry because Disney has a bad habit of not releasing (or taking a very long time) some of their tv shows (Kim Possible). I was afraid...

    Advice on 40 inch TV

    Hey guys need some advice. I'm looking for a 40 inch tv for my bedroom. I'd like it to be 3D and smart. I guess I can do without the 3D for now if I have to. Just worried that when I'm ready to buy a new tv for my living room in 3 or 4 years 3D won't be a feature anymore. I'm looking in the...

    Just saw Jaws!

    On the big screen that is. This was the one movie I've waited my whole life to see in a movie theater. When it first came out in 1975 I was 8 years old and despite my begging and pleading my Mom would not take me for fear i would have nightmares. Last August it showed at my local Cinemark but...

    Beach Boys-That's Why God Made The Radio

    Just bought this cd a few days ago and really like it. It's like meeting an old friend you haven't seen in a long time. Summer's Gone is a very haunting and sad song. I'm in my mid forties and listening to that just brings a flood of memories, not just of the journey the Beach Boys have been...

    Nice to see this show finally get released. I have fond memories of watching him with my grandparents when I was a kid. I've been recording the shows off of PBS. I don't know if anyone else cares but at least they will make at least one sale.:)

    I haven't made the jump to flat panel screens yet (still waiting for my 36 inch tube to die) but when I do, what size is best for watching dvds? If I have a good upscaling player can I get away with a 60 or 65 inch screen? Most of my collection are older hollywood movies. I have a laptop that...

    Pirates Of The Carribean Question

    I'm thinking about buying the 7-disc POTC Trilogy blu-ray set but have a question. I read that the blu-ray for At World's End doesn't have the audio commentary on it but I do have it on my 2-disc sd collector's edition. Does anyone know if the sd disc included in the blu-ray 3-disc set has the...
