That does look interesting. And 2 hours long!
Thanks for sharing.

Not that anyone cares, but I'll have to miss tonight's episode.  I've been following the Women's College World Series and that's on tonight......AND game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals....plus my own softball game....plus a little yard work....and that small project in the basement.....  :)

That's what DVRs and VCRs are for, I seldom watch anything live, record it then skip thru the commericals!! But it does rerun...twice!! ;D

Thanks Quick. Sounds like a good show to watch. I will have to tape it though. I will be watching the Pittsburgh Penguins trying to stay in it tonight. Dale

Yeah, any reports on the episode.
Should I plan on making time to watch one of the other broadcasts?

Yes I would make a point to watch the other ones. Last night I saw the most incredible shooting in my life. If they run it again you should most definetly watch it. Dale

Dale, How did you watch it with the Penguins game on?

I told my wife I'd be to bed soon, there was only a couple minutes left in the game and I wanted to see the Cup "ceremony"
Little did I know it'd be another 2 hours until I went to bed.  I have to learn to turn those things off.......naw   :)

I'll try to catch one of the other episodes if I can.

I kept switching between the game and that show. After the show was over I just kept it on the game. Boy what a game it was at that!!!!!!!!! :o Dale

It was good. I have seen some of that before and some of it isn't that hard if you practice. I saw about a hour of it and I forgot to DVR the rest.
