That looks really good. But Fox will just wait until I get invested in it and then cancel. No I'm still not over Firefly.

Of course. They start airing it 3 weeks before the Play offs/world series, take a break, then toss in Thanksgiving break as well as Christmas. A miracle any show survives all that.

I have a short attention span and just 150 hours on my DVR....

The scene with the trip wire... That's the same building in fringe when Walter crosses over to find the boy.

I dunno. We had sever weather where I at. Which interrupted the power as well as the sat. reception.

What I saw of the show, it was ok.

I thought that it was rather good, interesting characters and plot concepts.

And I usually do [not] like cop buddy shows, or Blade Runner material.

This was good enough for me to get off the computer and watch the show on the TV.

Another episode tomorrow night.

I thought it was predictable, and rather uninteresting. Cop that hates the GiTS bots gets partnered with one, only to essentially kill it, to be then partnered with REBEL GiTS android, one that is *gasp* ALMOST HUMAN!!!!! *yawn* Yeah, I gave it a try, but think it's lacking something to keep me interested in it.

Why so little?

I have about 2 years worth of shows on mine, starting with blizzcon 2011 through blizzcon 2013 (both fully recorded.

I don't think we can connect an external HD. I never looked into it.

You can likely still swap the drive if you wanted.

This really depends on the provider and set-top box they provide.

For example, you can't be swapping drives in any of the Motorola QIP boxes that Verizon and Frontier use for FiOS TV. Well, you could bit it won't do you any good, only the original/shipped disk space amount will be ever recognized no matter how large the drive is that you put in.

Possibly, unless some clever coder figures out a way to trick the onboard chipset with a disk drive overlay or something of that nature into making use of the much larger drive. (We did that back in the old days on Pc's that originally didn't recognize the larger drives by default).

No one has ever successfully altered the code for Verizon/Frontier FiOS set top boxes so it's a no go there. But Google may find something for other providers.

I've watched the Pilot, Sunday night, and the first episode tonight. And while I like it so far I'm reminded of a mix of Continuum, Robocop, and Total Recall 2070.

With Total Recall 2070 being the closest comparable thing.
said by Wiki :
David Hume is a senior detective for the Citizens Protection Bureau (CPB), a police agency. After his first partner is killed by self-aware androids, he is partnered against his wishes with Ian Farve, a naive android officer new to the department.

It was a silly bit of humor.
