If they do recruit a new pair to take over, people like me would probably quit watching. The cast is what makes these shows popular and if they change the cast, they change the show.

Maybe Ted Turner and Charlie are still fighting???

RG-6Q are for use on "quad shield" cables - slightly larger diameter so the connector is also slightly larger.

QUOTE]Do you suppose that means they will layoff people at the American call centers after they add these positions overseas?[ I'd bet on it! Some years ago I work at a call center in my hometown that provided service for the "other guys" as well as several other companies. I was a trainer...

Those that may have been tech savvy at one time might now be dealing with health issues that affect brain function. Beware - YOU may be next...

Me. :D

If we have to go to "interactive tv" then I'll probably go back to OTA TV. Won't get many of the shows that I enjoy watching - won't get CNN, etc. But I didn't get those for the first 40 or so years of my TV viewing either. I'll leave the interactive stuff to the youngsters.

Just got the same letter today. The savings that the annual payment allowed has been shrinking the last few years but it did let me postpone several of the price hikes for a few months each year. At least I won't see the latest price hike until January.

I'm not so sure it is a "pathetic" way. The younger generation is the next generation of leaders. Us "old folk" have passed the torch, like it or not. Let's sit back and watch - it will be fun.

The Shurz station in Wichita, KS (KWCH) opened its 10 PM newscast with a brief statement that an agreement has been reached and the station will remain on DISH.

Just got notice from the Schurz affiliate in Wichita that I will lose my access to their signal. Fortunately (and I let them know this) I do have OTA access to their affiliate station in my town. Also sent them an email suggesting that anyone with a VCR has had the ability to skip commercials...

Looks like the dispute with Shurz is also going to affect the CBS affiliate in the Wichita-Hutchinson (KS) DMA. Haven't watched the CW affiliate recently but it's probably afffected too.

As far as I'm concerned, DISH can leave the commercials in. I've found they make great "potty breaks". :D

Why????? If you want to change providers every time your commitment runs out, then don't be the first to complain when prices go up to cover the expenses of subscribers who constantly try to beat the system.

Didn't complain, got no offer. Don't expect one.

I would tend to disagree. While many of the traditional "shows" one finds on TV are now available (for the 50th rerun) on cable/satellite channels, you will NOT find local news, unless you get it OTA, or the cable/satellite package provides the local channels. Like it or not, local news is...

Absolutely worth the watch! The man, and his company take a lot of heat from a lot of people. But you cannot fault what he's done. I wish there were a few more like him out there - we'd all be better off.

You always have. TV stations have always had to pay for the programming and production of programs and commercials. Those costs will get passed to the advertisers and the advertiser will pass those costs to you by building it into the price they charge for the goods and services they offer.

Why should I drop dish if they drop a channel that I seldom watch??? :)

IF there was a greater variety of shows and IF the price of a 3d tv set was somewhere close to reasonable and IF I didn't have to wear glasses that would probably scratch the lens of the eyeglasses that are prescribed, then I MIGHT consider a look at 3DTV. Having lived through the very brief...

Good programming packages at reasonable rates, great customer service, and great hardware.

it hasn't run through the ringer yet!

Perhaps it's because mom and dad are proud of you and think you're the best son (or daughter) in the world.

Yes, but. The "but" being a steady "job" versus a retirement income. One on an annual salary has an option, usually, to renegotiate that salary on a yearly basis. Someone on social security or living on their pension plan's payout does not have that option.
