CBS stations return to DISH

[ChadT41]

If they removed autohop completely, wouldn't they still remain the lowest cost provider, with the best dvr on the market, plus PTAT, plus a 2TB HDD, and all the leading technology awards the business can corner? Remember, when the hopper released, autohop wasn't included. It wasn't until a few months afterwards.

 

[Bobby]

Oh for God's sake, what in the hell did you do before Auto Hop existed. The world did not just end, it simply got altered. Live with it....

 

[MikeD-C05]

Better limber up that thumb.

And buy lots of triple A batteries, because you are going to need them.

Nah, my Harmony has rechargeable batteries....

My problem was it never stopped being limber, which is why I finally turned autohop off.

 

[Teehar]

Better enjoy the autohop on fox and nbc as much as possible,because as soon as contracts are renewed they will most likely be 7 days as well.Dish really needs to rename the Hopper to the Skipper now.

I might get one if they rename it Ginger or MaryAnn.

Especially Mary Ann. Mmmm. Is the actress still living I hope?

Tina Louise is still amongst us, but at 81, probably looks a bit different..

Well, gee. I seem to have forgotten the characters, no doubt due to my own advancing age. I don't remember watching Gilligan's Island in reruns; only 1st run. So that was a few years ago.

I was actually thinking of Mary Ann (Dawn Wells). Ginger (Tina Louise) didn't have a face I liked much. Or didn't you notice her face?

Tina looks hideous now. Did not age well. Google her and looks through her photos.

 

[TheKrell]

Dawn Wells is younger than Tina Louise, and keeping her looks better too.

Yes, she has been doing commercial promo's on MeTv for Gilligan's Island

With the 7 day delay for auto hop on CBS programs Dish needs to extend the 8 day max time CBS programs can be in PTAT. I know you can move them out. However, I bet many folks will forget to do this.

So you simply save series on CBS programming that you watch and it will automatically be saved to your folder...

Why, so you can still Autohop them ? I don't believe that very many people will refuse to watch a show until they can 'hop' through it.

 

[dangue]

I do for some shows. I have such a backlog that I have the option to do that and still have plenty to watch.

 

[Hall]

I have such a backlog

That's different and can make sense in that situation. I'm talking about people who wait because *gasp*, they'd have to push the 30-second skip button.

 

[ChadT41]

I try to wait, but that's my own call. Similar backlog situation, but if I can stay current with a show, I do. If I don't want to delete a show and watch it later, will just save to my recordings and watch it when I get around to it, with autohop. It will still allow autohop after being moved to the user partition.

She is and I saw her do a commercial for Gilligan's Island on Metv the other day. She looks older but is still recognizable. Oh, I came in late and didn't see someone else already post the same thing.
