Cable went out about 6:30pm loosing both cable and internet. Told the wife I have B5 on a HD hooked to the TV, she said
turn it on. We have all the series 5 seasons and all the movies. She jumped right into where the action really gets going in
season 3. She knows her way around this series like no other.She is not even a SciFi fan. But now to get her to shut it down
for the night, might be a fight. OH yeah, cable was only out 1.5 hours, she could care less. Love her. She said she was getting
boarded watching Netflix, to hard to find something good to watch.

Wow. That's quite a feat considering just how much stuff there is on Netflix even though they've indeed gotten rid of a lot of the older movies.

Newer and older movies. They're cutting stuff left and right to finance their original series and films.

I think the only Netflix series I've been mildly curious about watching is "House of Cards" and "Stranger Things". That's it.

Only Stranger Things for me. I wish they'd put it out on DVD so I could rent it, but they're trying to force people to stream from them.

Now CBS wants to follow suit with Star Trek. frown

She don`t watch any of that new stuff. She hates it all. She is a Scooby Doo lover. And Project Runway. She is 53 and would kill me for letting you know her age. But I am safe,
she has no way to get here and hates forums, only uses her phone and tablet for all internet and is hooked on Facebook.

Well, if picking one scif show to love, she picked the right one!

As for Netflix shows, Daredevil and Marco Polo are the best. Watching Frontier right now and it isn't bad.

Jim, did you get hit by the storm last night. Had to run an errand just when it started to rain, lightning, thunder here. Called home and had the kids unplug the tv, computers, and modem. They only turned off the tv. LOL

We were just missed, thundered and lightning something terrible and blew like crazy but the heavy rains missed us. Its like a hurricane outside right now, winds gusting over 50mph. Woke up snow on the
ground to. At least it melted fast after hitting 72 here yesterday.
