I turned off the Suggestions feature anyway.
The suggestions, or the automatic recording thereof? Does it default to on? I don't remember ever turning mine off, or having it on.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think it defaults to on.
Every once in a while I check out the list just to see what it thinks I shoudl be watching.

The top half of my list is things I do like, just don't want to watch. Or have watched. Like Buffy on FX -- good call, guys. I wish I could make those go away without lying about my ratings.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I haven't gotten used to using Zap2it's tv schedule to try and find out when things are on.
They've changed it, you can't search shows as readily, so Zap2it now blows only second to TVGuide's guide.
OTOH, the Yahoo TV grid has become my new pal.

They tell us that,
TiVo's bright,
No VCR
Can do it right
It's not VTR, it's a TiVo.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Our TiVo is named April, though, oddly not after Warren's April.
I hear you, ita. But I find it nice to have a couple things in reserve in case there's nothing on and I want tv (and don't want to mess with and have to choose from DVDs)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
When I finally get a real job again, it's the first thing on my list. I'll buy a new Tivo before I buy new furniture. Seriously.
This sounds like a perfectly reasonable set of priorities to me.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I've left Suggestions on -- at least on the one TiVo with extra space. Occasionally it has spit out stuff that I've really enjoyed, for instance I picked up Stargate because it kept stubbornly recording it every weekend. The TiVo runs 24/7 anyway, so it might as well be useful. :-)

This final season of Highlander is really quite boring. I'd heard it was an exercise to find the right female character to spin off, but I'd had no idea so many episodes would feature little to no Duncan or our regular (and hopefully getting paid) friends. I'm not surprised when Sandra Hess proves flat, but I'm disappointed in Claudia Christian's so far.
I didn't think I loved Duncan, but we're 37 minutes in, and he's not around.

Art Crawl!!!
No Duncan at all yesterday. Are we getting the series finale today and tomorrow and the third from the end on Monday?
Also - - I know that they've been showing Farscape season 4 on Sunday nights -- but check the scifi schedule -- it's not on this weekend nor in October except for the two marathons. And they stopped at that mid-season break -- and repeated Prefect Murder this past weekend.
Also, I wish I'd known that they were showing Ultraviolet!
