Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for October 17, 2012

Sheer genius. Which is just one of the reasons this is one of my favorites.

Not only shear genius, cutting edge.

Bawana you rock…I did the very same thing…life is better!

We watch maybe three channels but have to pay for hundreds.

This strip is so weird and random, but I like it.

You need an antenna for digital tv? Thought they were useless now and that is why everyone had to get the expensive one.

Christmas is only a few weeks away.

I’m always losing those myself!

It looks like A&J is heading into Plugger territory.

I’ve got something like 135 channels and I have surfed through all of them to see what kind of material was on these seemingly obscure channels. After, inexhaustibly, looking at every channel I have found I only can (will) watch 3 or 4 of the same channels over and over again. The rest of them are absolute crap. Who thinks this kind of programming up? Is it because they have found that the material presented appeals to the most of the population? If so, no wonder the rest of the world is outperforming Americans. We are dumbing down!

@Lee-Anne: Nope. If your TV has an ATSC tuner in it, then any antenna will work. Digital TV broadcasts are using the same frequencies that used to be used for analog TV. Any antenna that can pull in the full range of VHF and UHF will work for digital as well.

I’ve been using a 30-year-old rabbit-ears antenna with a TV at home. It works great. I get about 20 channels, all free, all with perfect picture quality. (Until it doesn’t. The nature of digital is that the picture is either perfect or you get nothing. There’s no gradual degradation from bad weather like you used to get with analog TV.)

Laminate them into 8 1/2 × 15.....too big to miss.

a little expensive solution.

I don’t get it and it’s really bugging me. What is it, a framed mirror???

I will order one. Put one of those thingy’s on the back to set it on my table. I would need binoculars to read it mounted on the wall.

If you count all the music channels I get hundreds of un-watched(unlistened to) channels I record of of about 12 or 15 but I never seem to have the time to watch all of the shows I’ve recorded.

That’s what the Favorites option on the guide menu is for – just to pull up the guides for your selected channels.

There are three over the air channels in my city. Good thing for my extensive DVD collection.

Cable? Who needs it? You’ve got a computer, use it. There’s literally hundreds—thousands!—of channels for free. There’s dozens of internet URLs that have catalogs of internet broadcasts and there’s dozens of music channels. Every time I hear “cable costs so much!” or “There’s nothing I want to watch!” I just shake my head at some people’s foolishness.

I’ve got ‘rabbit ears’, and get about 25 channels, some real good stuff like Gunsmoke, Bonanza, Partrige Family, all those oldies I’ve seen a dozen times but will watch again and again. Plus the regular broadcast channels, of course. I record far more than I can ever watch.
