TV Shows: What are you watching?

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Well Nymeria made an appearance, Ghost hasn't been seen in a while.

Though rumours are HBO blew their load on the dragon CGI and didn't have the budget to do the wolves!

And all the people downloading the episodes for free.

Not big on paying a lot but I will pay a fair price for good shows.

Almost ready to drop cable all together except I want to watch sports.

That is what you call the hands on your hips my friend. If it wasn't for the sports I'd say the tv providers would be sweating arseholes instead of exploiting ours
If you need air...call it in

I've been trying to cancel Dish for a couple of years now. they keep giving me deals, so I stick it out a little longer.
Between Netflix, HBO Now and Amazon, I never watch regular TV. I think one movie last month?

So now I'm down to $8.46 a month, which covers their 'equipment rental'. Technically, they're paying me now to watch as their plan is $19.99 and they give me a $20 credit a month.

Still have local channels and can watch the odd Huskers game if I get bored.

Yes - that should start up again shortly. Just the one team package.

Eh?

Who cramped in your corn flakes?

I just wanted to know as I have never bought it before and I have no idea of 1 team package means.

Can I ask about the quality of the production? Which play by play team do they show.

Yes, the one team works well - I barely have time to catch Canuck games, so it save some money. You generally get a choice of home or away, and there are some blackout dates. In my case, Denver home games are a "local blackout" (7 hour drive) because the game is on the FOX sports for Denver. :?

You also have a lot of games with multi-cam angles, and replays of all the other games the next day. Watch on a phone, PC, Apple TV, etc.

So to me, it's a good deal.

And nobody 'cramped' in my 'Corn' flakes... It's been a long 47 years, ok..?.. :drink:
