More TV

That whole switch to digital thing means the Tivo has to talk to a cable box to change the channel. Which means I can only record one channel or watch one channel. I can't record one thing and watch another. Remember when we used to have that technology? In the 80s? Anyhow, it also means that sometimes they don't cooperate with each other. And it fails to change the channel. Or, randomly once recently it changed it to a completely weird channel. Like, the numbers didn't match at all.

Which is all to say that my Tivo failed to record Community last week. So I had to procure it through other means. So I noticed it was episode S3E4. And then right at the top of the episode they make a joke about that! The apartment is 303, only they're arguing that it was 304. I'm thinking there was something I missed there. Did they air in the wrong order maybe? Shows still do that crap. (Witness Alphas, which resulted in me watching them out of order!)

But if the cable box/Tivo hadn't screwed up, I probably wouldn't have noticed that it was ep 304. Oh sure, it would've said it. But I wouldn't have been paying attention to it. And I would've missed the joke. (Or maybe it would've said 303, and I would not have known the significance of it.)

All of this going on when Wil Wheaton was on Big Bang Theory too! But never fear, I've procured that through other other means. :)

So there's your bit of randomness for the week from me.
