No, not to fifty!

So, it’s been 6+ months since my last entry. Things seem to fly by week after week without anything eventful, but one thing did catch my eye recently. After my trip to Boston to visit my brother, I became enamored with the idea of building a Windows Media Center PC. The appeal of a machine where I could do more than just watch videos and that could itself record two things at once was just too irresistable. Anyway, I was checking the list of recordings when I stumbled across a jaw-dropping number: 50 Series are set for recording.

50. Take a moment to digest that number.

Still with me? OK, so it’s not really 50 different series so much as different settings for some of the same series and some of them aren’t even airing new episodes at the same time, but it’s a simple fact that I can’t (and won’t) watch all of them. Like the networks, it’s time for me to start dropping shows.
