EVIL DVR!!!
We have gotten right back into the swing of things as far as taping TV programs go.... Adam noticed on Sunday night that the DVR cut off the last few seconds of The 4400, but I didn't think too much of it.... On Monday night I wasn't up for watching the last two episodes of a show called MY BOYS that's on TBS from 10-11pm (It was the Summer Season Finale) so we taped it. The show promised a big ending in the last 30 seconds (do you see where I am going with this?).
The basic plot was that PJ, the main character, and her best friend from college were each going to find a man and the four of them would take a trip to Italy... PJ had three offers of men to go with her... in the last 30sec you were going to get to see which one she picked --- hmmm, sounds lame now that I explain it --- well, my DVR ended the program just as the camera was panning to the other airline seat! I can't believe it!!!
Update: I figured out what's going on, but I don't think I can fix it. The bedroom TV is on a bit of a delay, wither because the big TV is HD, or just because the signal has to go the extra cable length to get to the bedroom... so, this isn't something that can be fixed. With TIVO you coudl program it to start taping a little early or go a little late, but Comcast doesn't give that option.... grrr....
Second Update: I just went websurfing for the answer and learned that the show faded to black without giving an answer..... OOps, my bad! Sorry I blamed you beloved DVR!
