Exactly. Which is why I checked out everything else. After being on hold for 15 minutes, I gave up. Since I'll prob be up early tomorrow (thereby avoiding the heavy night traffic in theory), we'll see what happens. ;)

I've only had that happen once, and it was a while ago.

Yup but they ended up changing a bunch of music because of rights issues if I'm not mistaken.

I can't speak to shether or not they changed music. I can say that all music has been correct to the period and fit the situation thus far. I'm only in season two, though.

Crapped out 2/3 through the first episode, it blamed internet. Um, Netflix streaming and YouTube worked fine, thank you very much. So F you, Amazon. Gonna try and marathon the show tomorrow, and if the problem persists....hoo boy.

I did like what the show started, though.

Since your Netflix was up, you'll also have to thank Amazon, since Netflix uses Amazon's cloud service for all streaming operations.

I'm guessing chinabeachdvd.com isn't legit?

ummmmmm, no. Hell, I've got all of the episodes on tape; sadly, quite a few from when it was syndicated on Lifetime, so I could have made my own DVD set, or made you one like they will. But I'm looking forward to this release, mainly for the series, but there's a ton of special feature stuff also. The episode commentaries should be worth it in their own right.

Season four, when they started jumping around through time to show the effect that their time in Vietnam had on the principles, has to be one of the best seasons of television ever. I just about crapped myself when in the opening scene of the first episode they show a guy with one leg walking up the drive toward someone's house and

[spoilers]it turned out to be Boonie walking up to Dr. Richard's house. And then later in the season, when they show how it happened..................

Well, it ran fine for quite a few episodes today, and just crapped out again. And again, Netflix (and everything else) worked fine. It's whatever Amazon Streaming specifically is using that is causing it. Either that or (grabs tinfoil hat) they are targeting the free trial memberships. *shrug*

It sounds like some of it was changed but not all. What about joe cocker in the opening credits?

Sounds like they got some people together to do a decent - not great - impersonation of Joe Cocker's cover.

Well, I didn't expect that twist for the wolf's campaign.

And Pete on Mad Men continues to get his "just desevrings." Good.

Don seems to be in total DGAF mode now. Before, he at least tried to pretend to care.

Back in 2007, there was a show called Drive, yet another show given no chance by Fox. I only just recently learned of it and watched all 6 episodes that aired. So good, so much potential. It's a complete shame that it wasn't given a real chance. Just look up the cast and you'll immediately see the potential it had.

Try the show "The Good Guys". Go through the entire first season and be amazed that Fox didn't pick it up. One of the funniest shows I have EVER seen.

I caught an episode of the Discovery Channel's North America on Sunday. What an incredible show. The visuals are simply stunning.

You know, I had been looking forward to this series. Yet here I am and I completely missed the first half of the show. Discovery has done an absolute **** job of advertising this show.

To be honest, Discovery has done an absolute **** job of just about everything for about 5-7 years now.

Due to the big companies owning multiple channels, I'd agree that many channels have done a p* poor job of cross-advertising. I end up looking on the 'net for the starts of new shows/etc, due to my general lack of tv viewing. Cable channels almost get it....they need to finish the job they started.

I wonder if Peggy did what she did more to help Joan or to screw Pete... She managed to do both, but one wonders if it was Don or Roger vs Joan would she have bothered?

Of all the nights for my hotel to have an outage on HBO! Man was that annoying to spend 7 hours traveling, make it before 8pm central and then not get to watch Gsme of Thrones. Torrent is waiting for me, may try to grab a sandwich and watch over lunch.

alright caught up...this one was my favorite:

My favorites:

Always hire union minstrels. #GameOfThrones

Protip: despite what #gameofthrones might lead one to believe, fetal stabbings are a LOUSY wedding gift. Stick to the registry.

By Dothraki standards, I would consider this wedding a very entertaining affair #gameofthrones

Why doesn't George R.R. Martin use twitter? Because he killed all 140 characters. #gameofthrones

Game of Thrones: a show for those who can't deal with the sunny optimism of The Walking Dead.
