 |  One really cool thing about the blackout is that all of the pay channels that I don't usually get are now coming in. All I had to do was re-calibrate the channel thing in the setup mode, it scanned all of the channels for available signals and VOILA!!! I now get cartoon network, spike tv (which means I can watch REAL star trek again) and many many more! Those of you who live in the affected areas ought to check your channels. If you have a newer tv, you might have to do what I did. The only reason this kinda sucks for me is that I'm no longer unemployed and I can't sit around the house watching tv anymore

| Bah! Most of the channels are gone now except for FOX cable news and Oxygen as far as I can tell. Oh well, I guess I can watch Xena: Warrior Princess now :roll:

| I'm having a hard time saying "SpikeTV" instead of TNN. It's been TNN for YEARS. And no amount of programming changes will really make me think otherwise. Though, if only they'd stop having those stupid-ass banner ads that take up nearly half the fucking screen while I'm watching TNG...
