holy shit, hoya, you have a LOT of stuff on your DVR!!!!
 
 mine look like this:
 
 for me:  later..with jools holland, nothing but trailers, beautiful noise, twilight zone, hockey night in Canada and some live performances from Glastonbury 2005.
 
 for the lady:  law and order, basically. with some Lost, Studio 60 and Meerkat Manor.
 
 
 and since our new crappy DVR from Dish Network only holds 50 hours of HD programming (or 200 SD), thats about all we have.
 
 though i did use to tape Subterranean as well, i just never reprogrammed it into my new DVR

pretty much all of BBCAmerica's prime time lineup sans home improvement shows..
 
 daily show, best week ever, 24, lost, earl, the office, who i meet your mother, gilmore girls, house, kosmette's shows  :)
 
 is it just me or has the Colbert Report really lost it... the interviews have become a joke, the tek jansen(?) adventures are lame, they've run several bits into the ground especially the coverage of that   third rate hockey team with the mascot named after the show...

you're way off on the colbert report, kosmo ... i don't have enough time to watch both every day, so i go through periods where i watch TDS or CR for a week and then switch over ... but i LOVE tek jansen, the latest one was pretty funny (i'm here from the future...) and the show as a whole is still pretty sharp
 
 smackie -- do you really just get your TV news from "bbc world news"?  i find the program to be a necessary supplement to my daily news intake, but if that was all i watched i'd probably be on the front lines of some oxfam or greenpeace protest ... have you given lehrer's program a shot?

i'm well behind on my colbert reports at the moment and maybe the Shtick is wearing thin from watching to many in a row. it's partly because some of his interviewees of late have been lame i.e. the lady who wrote the book on plastic surgery was a very tedious interview.

The Sarah Silverman Program
How is this show?  She was on Stern the other day and they played the clip about her sleeping with God and it sounded pretty funnu, but I haven't gotten around to watching it.

I find it really humorous.  I mean, if you like Sarah Silverman, you'll like the show.  A bit of an oddball but...eee I just love her.

Hoya asked:
 smackie -- do you really just get your TV news from "bbc world news"? ... have you given lehrer's program a shot?
Yes, that's the only TV news I watch, and it's mostly for its international coverage.
 
 I get most of my National news from paper and web sources, and by virtue of my job, I've usually seen it all long before it's on Lehrer.  I used to be an avid watcher however, mostly back when it was MacNeil/Lehrer.

Post by: HoyaSaxa03 on February 09, 2007, 08:00:00 pm
i guess the first 10 minutes "news summary" of lehrer is mostly repeats, but the next 40 mins or so is usually really solid in-depth reporting on the day's events ... i usually skip half of them and just pick the segments i find interesting, but it seems like the only option out there for real long-form journalism and sober interviews with newsmakers
Title: Re: What's on your DVR?

Or you can read the New York Times.

fair enough
Title: Re: What's on your DVR?
Post by: vansmack on February 09, 2007, 10:10:00 pm
I was half joking, although I do read the NYT daily.
 
 I like Lehrer a lot, I just found his programs backing up a bit on the TiVo so I took off the season pass.  I suppose I could have just set the TiVo to save only one epsisode so I always have the most recent.  I've actually started to slow down on the BBC World News a bit too, watching 2-3 a week instead of all 7 when the US first invaded Iraq or anytime Lebanon starts looking like it's about to go back into a civil war or attacking Israel.
