I wouldn’t know, so I’ll just take your word on that.

The Tigers are on a roll like we haven’t seen since 1984.

Yeah...that 1984 series got me in a lot of trouble. Still; rather see Tigers than either the Yankees or the Red Sox. Matter of fact; I will be tickled pink if the Tampa Bay Rays knock the Sox out of the playoff picture. (Oh, pleeeeeeeease...) Rays are 3.5 behind the Roid Sox, and they are winning again tonight. Go, Rays!!!

They said the Tigers would be finished when they went up against the Yankees in 06 but the tigers make quick work of them.

Unfortunately they then had that 12 day wait while National League dragged on before the world series.

Roku also has a rewatch option.

I had things to do, so the *commercials*, such as they are, were welcome as a time I could leave the room.

We cancelled st TV in June. Do not miss it. Got a Roku2 and we watch a lot of Netflix streaming. FNC is on streaming segments 9-3 EST. FNS is on the next day. There are a series of 2 minute cooking clips on CHOW. A Sailing channel. Multiple other movies channels, sports, music. We haven’t even begun to explore the channels and they add new ones all the time and the existing ones seem to be changing format. Some are subscription, some are free. Rumor is Netflix will begin some original programming offered on Roku. Maybe even season 2 of The Event.

We now pay $27/mo for in-home entertainment, as opposed to $70. I may cut us back to 1 DVD at a time from Netflix and we will be spending $22/mo.

Probably harder to convince kids or a spouse who has to see something they like when it is first broadcast.

Same here. I wasn’t able to watch tonight, hope he does the same level of research as in the past.

My age is showing, how do you get BBTV? Internet, subscription option for DirecTV or Dish?

Not very good with the technicalities. It sounds like Internet speed is also an issue based on some of the other comments.

Looks like internet...a shame for many of us; since I really like the tone of the new show...some decent clips on his ‘Blaze’ website...Muslims will NOT be happy.

So how much per month is the subscription for GBTV? And how difficult is it to learn how to use a Roku?

I really wish Glenn just stayed put in his 5pm Fox News TV slot, exercising a "premium member" option for those who want to watch him online or via a Roku, smart phone or iPad. I have none of those things at the moment. I'll get around to getting them eventually I suppose (not sure about the Roku thingie).

Glenn has really alienated an entire segment of his rabid fans - older than me - who will never learn to use these devices.

And I certainly hope that eventually we’ll get “A Patriot’s History of the United States” television miniseries on Mr. Beck’s network.

I would LOVE to see that! :-)

Of course, first I have to figure out a way to watch Glenn's network. It may be awhile before I get around to that...

I wish Fox would bring on Mark Steyn to take Beck’s 5 o’clock spot.
