    Idiots are moving Lost and Alias to Thursdays. Probably right on top of CSI and Without a Trace. That's just fantastic. :mad:


    Lost, Alias To Move

    ABC will move its hit SF series Lost to 9 p.m. ET/PT Wednesdays from its current 8 p.m. and move Alias to 8 p.m. Thursdays, Variety reported.

    The new SF series Invasion will follow Lost on Wednesdays in the 10 p.m. timeslot, the trade paper reported.

    On Thursdays, Alias return in September or early October, despite speculation the show might be pushed back to midseason due to star Jennifer Garner's reported (but as-yet-unannounced) pregnancy, the trade paper reported. It's expected ABC will have enough episodes of Alias in the can to get through the fall with original episodes; it's possible the series could then take a two-month break in the winter to make room for one of the network's many backup dramas. (Alias premiered in midseason this year in order to air a string of original episodes uninterrupted by reruns.)

    At 9 p.m. Thursday, ABC has slotted The Night Stalker, a spooky hour from The X-Files former executive producer Frank Spotnitz.

    tivo or torrent + Peer Guardian 2 to keep those fuckers off your ass.

    Personally, I love d/l the newest shows off torrents. For instance, I watch Lost in HD with no commercials in HD. I don't have an HD tv, but it looks fantastic on my monitor :)

    Beats the broadcast feed anyday, just remember to search for PG2 to keep the feds off your IP.

    I don't like having to make time to watch more TV. I wanna watch it when it comes on and that's it.

    I like watching it when I want to watch it. To each his own though. I love 44 min episodes of lost and 22 min episodes of Family Guy.

    I don't have a TIVO but damn if getting rid of commercials isn't worth the price alone.

    Tivo does not work for you when you have two shows coming on at the same time.

    Ummm... with a DVR you can actually watch less TV. If it starts at 9:00, you can just record it.... start watching at 9:15 or 9:20 and it will be over by 10:00 or so and you won't have to watch a single commercial. You just save yourself 15-20 minutes per hour of TV you watch. The only thing I watch live is sporting events.

    And DJ_Tet: If you don't have a HD monitor, you are watching it in HD. :p

    hmm?

    :wtf23:


    edit---my monitor does HD broadcasts, not sure what you were going for. I don't have an HD tv, but then again I don't watch my d/l stuff on TV because I don't have a dvd player capable (crippled enough) to watch these discs.

    Family Guy isn't in HD but I promise Lost is, and no commercials to boot :)

    But if I'm watching another show at the same time that's an hour long, then I'm watching 45 additional minutes of TV.
