What's on your TiVo season pass list?
We *finally* joined the civilized world and got one, so we need to fill it up. What are you watching?

5. Well, I finally relented because of my work schedule
which is five nights a week so I miss everything. And, the times that I'm off, after 1 p.m. and during the morning/early afternoon, all that's on is garbage.

With the rebate, the box only costs $30 and we're dropping our Blockbuster video service (like Netflix) for an overall savings.

I really like the guide feature that lists the episode that's one, even if you're flipping through looking for something and it's a commercial or being able to get up even if it's not commercial and not missing anything. You control the TV instead of it controlling your time.

18. That's not really a good deal
and not really free.

Right now you can buy the single tuner at Circuit City for $179 and then send in for a $150 rebate, (which you can prequalify on the Internet to make it go faster and get a tracking number.)

Then, the monthly service is $12.95 with a one-year commitment. They are pricing it at $19.95 per month for a one-year deal. That equals $84 difference, likely the cost for the "free" box.

If you go buy it, that saves $54 in the first year and even more in subsequent years if you continue with the service. And if you sign up for an even longer commitment, you can save even more.

11. Jerico...
Small town in Kansas, peopel going about their lives.

One day in the distance, they see a Mushroom cloud about where Denver would be.

Communications. Out.
Power. Sporatic.
Tension. High.

Altanta is gone also. More cities probable.

What now?

Some good talent, Notable Skeet Urlich (Miracles).

Kinda like LOST witha much bigger cast and more supplies :D

If you like mystery and things not being what the seem, give it a shot.
