It's done.

We've done it ... Sold our souls to the corporate devil.

Comcast Digital was installed today.

*sigh*

(and yes, the ticket was fucked up, the guy thought he was there to install basic. HAND OVER THAT DIGITAL BOX, SIRRAH, WITH ALL DISPATCH!)

No BBC, no channels "over" 99. But we have Cartoon, Discovery, History, TLC, Weather (yay my favorite!), AMC, and On Demand. That seems to cover both of our basic needs (guess who which likes which?)

It's not part of the package. We currently have 72 channels + a few "music" channels, and will likely be watching a whopping 6-8 of those channels and ignoring the rest.

It'd be easy enough to order the next package, but why would I want to drop hundreds of dollars for a package that would only give us another MAYBE 10 channels, and more like 5-6?

BBC Americas is not all that great in my opinion, it's a little too much Americas and not enough BBC. It's like they went to the video store and got a few DVDs of BBCs shows and just rerun the same ones over and over.

And they don't play Red Dwarf.

And they don't play Red Dwarf.

And that's clinched it. NOT WORTH IT!
