  - Most of the codes I get are US, there's even a work around for European codes -- nm - J-Nexus Feb 22, 20:48 8
    - But how do you watch them? -- nm - David Feb 22, 20:53 7
      - I don't know if this is what you're asking, but... - Mop (205 lbs) Feb 22, 20:59 5
        
        Exactly -- nm - J-Nexus Feb 22, 21:00 4
        
        and to add to that, there is a Firefox add on that really helps with this...probably the easiest way -- nm - J-Nexus Feb 22, 21:01 3
        
        You and Reagen need to talk. I am lost. - David Feb 22, 21:33

Dragon the Bruce Lee Story. Thanks movie club. Wife has never seen it. Thinks it's a karate movie -- nm - Bacon Feb 22, 19:40 3
- I mean, it's not not a karate movie... -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 19:42 2
  - True, but she wouldn't watch a typical karate movie. This has a story, love story, sentiment. She liked it -- nm - Bacon Feb 22, 21:50
  - Reminds me I gotta watch Slapshot to get ready for the game in the morn. There's a bar nearby that'll be open for that. -- nm - budice Feb 22, 19:45

- I *can't* believe all those people are still free to do this. - Will Hunting Feb 22, 20:02 13
  - Ramamurthy is on covert affairs, papa petrelli was on breaking bad ... -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:08 8

      - Holy shit, HRG was the (State) Senator on The Office. - Will Hunting Feb 22, 20:14 2

        yeah he was also on the final season of Burn Notice. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 20:17
      - Hiro's definitely a better example (I stopped watching C.A.) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:12 2
        
        C.A. dropped all the cuteness...and went full on spy show. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 20:17 1
        
        So you're saying I should get back into it. Did they keep the original theme song? I liked that quite a bit. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:42
    - (This doesn't disprove your point, I know that, I'm just saying not all hope is lost for them ...:-) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:09
  - new cast. Though some old ones may come back. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 20:05 3
    - Frankly, my original opinion was that each season needed a new cast ... -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:06 2
      - Then each season could've had a new tagline (because save the cheerleader got old) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:07 1
        
        I think they were planning on that a bit. The producers were ready to kill main characters. NBC said no you're not. -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 20:08
- dangit! :) -- nm - Remlik Feb 22, 19:36
- You're combing bac to find me, right? Right? - Peter Petrelli's Irish Girlfriend Feb 22, 19:36 2
  - It would be great if they did. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 19:36 1
    - In trying to find out who played her, I found this bit of trivia. - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 22, 19:41

- I have a pi somewhere. Do you want it? -- nm - Truman Feb 22, 20:09 3
  - Does it have the network adapter? (Even if not, I'd still be interested - what do you want for it?) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:10 2
    - I think so. Let me find and then email you next week -- nm - Truman Feb 22, 20:45 1
      - sounds good. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 20:46
- no idea what ANY of your IM means, but outage was non-issue for me as I spent the day at a friends house snow shoe-ing ... I will be hurting tomorrow! -- nm - JenBro Feb 22, 20:06
- Finally!!! Someone else that turns their phone off at night. I feel validated. - Bacon Feb 22, 19:29 2
  - I mute my phone as well. I get woken up easily. -- nm - Krusty Feb 22, 21:41 1
    - I'm the oppostie so don't bother turning my phone off. Call me all you want at 2AM, I'll notice it when I get up at 6 or 7. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 23, 05:16
- Really, don't worry about it. Sleep is more important than this place. -- nm - spamlet (droid) Feb 22, 19:27
