I ain't much on TV but ever once in a while a good show comes along.

Big Bang Theory is one to watch. IMHO, YMMV

It's ah knee slapper.

if you just want to have a really good belly laff, it's the show to watch.

I'll look fer it, but in the mean time what is YMMV?

Remember folks, the only stupid question is the one that don't get asked.

That is fer certain OT. Me an Lil share a like sense of humor, and I love it when we get ta laughin so hard we can't even talk. Makes us feel about 10 years younger.
When we first met we were in a room full of people watchin a George Carlin video an the two uf us looked like complete idiots fer all the laughin we were doin. It was actualy painful, but in a good way.

been watching Peacemakers on hulu provided by my internet provider. Dirty Jobs and Myth Buster are the other 2 I watch, and not faithfully Mike Rowe cracks me up

Roo, there is a site called Fancast that lets anyone with any IP watch Hulu shows and movies. They got everythin from vintage shows ta new stuff. I been usinin it fer awhile and it appears ta be safe. They actualy had a whole season of Alias Smith and Jones on there. There are commercials, but they're only about 10 ta 15 seconds apiece. It's perty neat.

I'm hopin' that they will come with more of the old TV Westerns on DVD.

Trinity · « **Reply #12 on:** November 25, 2008, 07:24:08 PM »

All the ones just mentioned are available. I've watched some of the first seasons of Have Gun Will Travel and Wanted: Dead or Alive. I've got Alias Smith and Jones in my Netflix list.

I always enjoyed that show. It came out right after I was laid up with a broken leg and had no access to my movies or books. It was very welcome, but I hated that I had to wait another week for it to come back.

I had never heard of Hulu. Thanks for the tip. I'm going to bookmark that site for sure!

Leo Tanner · « **Reply #13 on:** November 25, 2008, 08:52:59 PM »

Here's another tip.
Through Fancast you can download an add on fer ABC Full Episode Player. Shure it's only ABC shows but they are in much higher resolution than average Hulu. We watched the latest Boston Legal Thanksgiving episode tanight. It buffers a lot in the first minute or so then runs real smooth on full screen. You have ta click ta continue after the commercials, but it's worth it.
Watched some Have Gun Will Travel earlier (fergot how much I loved that show) an if Lil an CJ go shoppin tanight I might view an episode or two of the original Terlit Zone while they's gone. Those are just on the regular player.
Might as well throw the TV out the window, it has become obsolete.

Leo, After February, you may have to.

Leo Tanner · « **Reply #15 on:** November 26, 2008, 12:23:47 PM »

That's OK Pop. I already terminated my sattelite service a month ago, so I won't be missin much. They kep raisin the price every month an when it hit 80 bucks I waved goodbye.

Texas Lawdog · « **Reply #16 on:** November 26, 2008, 06:12:48 PM »

Just get a subscription to Netflix and watch all the old shows on DVD.

Leo Tanner · « **Reply #17 on:** November 30, 2008, 05:23:49 PM »

Two more fer the folks usin Fancast/Hulu I found in the movie section.
First one was from 1955 called Five Guns West. Good plot an it aint too long. Confederate army is gettin hard up fer men an pardons 5 criminals sentenced ta hang ta go get some Yankey gold fer em.
The other was Return of a Man Called Horse. I aint much fer sequels, but this one had the same actors in the key roles as the original and was surprisingly good. I had just watched the original a couple months ago so the story was fairly fresh in ma mind.

Texas Lawdog · « **Reply #18 on:** November 30, 2008, 06:29:26 PM »

Leo, That;s one of the first movie I remember seeing Mike Connors(Mannix) in.

Ozark Tracker · « **Reply #19 on:** December 20, 2008, 06:50:47 AM »

TLD, that's like the old movies channel, I can turn over there and a lot of them I remember seein when they were brand new.
