Folks at home use an OTA antenna. They get 36 channels - dish has 999 bazillion channels and nothing to watch.
It’s affecting Texas too ... I can’t get about half of the usual channels.
Well, and what’s wrong with saying that Obama is a puffter?
1. He is, so it’s true.
2. Puffters are a protected species under the rules of politically correct multiculturalism. It’s hateful to speak critically about them.
3. So, are they implying that it would be WRONG of Obama to be a puffter? That sounds like hate speech to me. They should turn themselves in for re-education camp.
I should have added “not that there is anything wrong with that”
“dish has 999 bazillion channels and nothing to watch.”
Lately, I’ve felt the same way
Yep. High def is not available. Problems with the satellite. Don’t know when it will be back up.
A friend of ours loaned us his receiver for a week. We spent the next two evenings just surfing through all the channels. Nothing. People say well there’s the History and Discovery channel. We’ve found them to be disingenuous and very Liberal in their programming. Okay so there was ESPN - but you don’t need all that for one channel. The family decided on an OTA antenna. We get 36 channels in HD from the Seattle area. Still just two or three channels worth watching. But then, it’s free. Can’t complain.
The dishwasher just stopped. When it cools down, I’ll check.
TV sucks.
They have the Fox Soccer Channel though
Unfortunately, you have to subscribe to 200 crappy channels to get that channel.
Mine too....
I read where some are bundling favorites. But the problem is that you might have a favorite in another bundle so you’d have to pay for that one too just for the one channel.
Sister in Georgia said it had been out for sometime there.
I believe the rumor is that all Dish channels are to be replaced overnight by the BO network: all Obama, all the time. I believe it was a mandate from Dear Leader himself. To make the new content appear to be appealling, they are going to broadcast pure static for 12 hours beforehand.
LOL!
No problemo here in Arizona.
People look to where they can cut back and the first place is cable or dish - some charges are over a hundred dollars per month.
Rumors are that Dish recently performed an upgrade and some of the new equipment failed already. So, they’ve been taking Sats out of service to replace the new stuff with the old stuff. Chinese made, of course. Ours (Atl So) was out for about 3 hours late afternoon to early evening. All is great again.
Bush’s fault.
