Anybody else get pissed when a movie's got a killer song in the closing credits, and it get's cut off by the cable station previewing its upcoming programs?

They're about 3 inches wide/tall with an ad filling up the rest of the screen, and they run at about 3087x the normal speed.

That isn't much of an exaggeration.

You need to learn to /images/graemlins/heart.gif the Internet instead of hating cable networks.

I think they got through the full credits to My Cousin Vinny before finishing the "In the criminal justice system..." intro to L&amp;O. I was strangely impressed.

If anything has become more saturated in TV coverage besides poker, it might be L&amp;O.

Speaking of watching movies on TV, anyone else do this? Sometimes when I'm watching TV I'll see that a movie on that I own on DVD, yet I watch. Commercials, fullscreen format, edited for TV but for some reason I watch it.

I know I'm not alone, a coworker and I were discussing this a few weeks ago, and he does it too.

I think it has something to do with it being somewhat of a surprise when it comes on TV. Think part of the reason you're more likely to watch something if it comes on TV is because the decision to play it has already been made, you just have to watch. If you're going to go put a DVD in yourself, then you have the problem of many many choice.

Have done that myself too, but lately I try to at least get up and grab the DVD and pop it in.
