I find that I might be a bit of a contradiction. I don’t go see movies all that often. Although I do love them, I just don’t find that I go to the movie theater that often to catch the recent releases. However, I always tune into the Oscars. A lot of it has to [...]

My worst nightmare has come true. My DVR died. Something in the back of my mind told me that it was coming. I guess, in a way, I was being naive and/or didn’t want to believe that the end was near. I’ve been pretty busy with work and life and my DVR had been filling [...]

It’s been a few weeks since I have had DirecTv installed here at the house, and I can’t complain. The signal has been amazing, the HD channels have been the best that I have seen and they keep adding more and more. I love the fact that I can schedule recordings from the web and [...]

Many of you know how much I enjoy television. So much so that the recent writers strike left me with quite a few gaps in my usually calm evenings spent in front of the tube. Granted, it was a much needed and appreciated break, but I am glad the strike is finally over. TV Guide [...]

This show never should have gone off the air. My buddy Seth recommended the short-lived sitcom on Fox to me about a year ago and I am just now getting caught up on the hilariousness of it all. It’s a show about a dysfunctional family who loses everything and the one son trying to hold [...]

As all of the season finales have aired for most of network television, I realize that there isn’t much on television that I want to watch. I consider myself to be pretty busy for the most part. Most of the TV shows that I watch are all recorded on the DVR so that I can [...]

I’m a member of Netflix and have been for almost 7 months now! It’s hard to believe it when I think about it really. I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with Netflix, until recently. Over the past few shipments that I have made sending DVD’s back to them, it has [...]
