[QUOTE="WizarDru, post: 1173359, member: 151"] Heh, he's very interested in seeing Star Wars. And by that, I mean the original trilogy, of course. I want to my kids to see the original series FIRST, and then the second series. As for the Tivo...It's a somewhat pricey investment at first, but it's really worth it. It really does change your viewing habits, and I could scarce live without it, now. Case in point: Last night, I taped the new Jimmy Neutron tv movie, turned on the DVD player and watched an episode of Jeremiah starting at 8:25, and then at about 9:11 turned the TV back on, rewound to the beginning of Angel, and watched it 'almost live', skipping through the commercials to catch up to the live broadcast...so that by 10PM, we had finished watching Angel with the rest of the eastern time zone, just without watching most of the commercials. Sweet. [u]True story[/u]: I got my Tivo on a Sunday, and got it hooked up and working with a little help from their phone support. My friend Scorch mentions to me, "Hey, Inuyasha loops around to the first episode tomorrow night...better set up a program to watch it." I agree, but I'm tired, and we get distracted. Monday comes and goes, and I completely forget about the ol' dog-demon. Tuesday morning, I wake up, get dressed, prepare to head to work, and curse as I realize I forgot to set up a program for Inuyasha. I turn on the Tivo, just to check if the nightly call worked...and see that it taped Inuyasha [i]for me[/i], on the chance I might like it. I haven't missed an episode since, and I no longer have to bother constantly checking schedules to figure out when new episodes are on, or if the time moved a show to another day or time (such as Buffy conflicting with the NBA, for example). Tivo rocks. And now they make them with DVD-RAM burners in 'em. :) [/QUOTE]
