Ok, my bad mood is OVER. why i was moody? fleas. my cat had 'em. we had to treat the whole house and wash everything. "I" had to do EVERYTHING like it was my fault. hmm. anyway, i was really ticked off (err..flead-off) about it so...now that everything is done, i'm fine now. i'm sorry about that "what if they only play only 13 episodes?" thing again. i was just browsin' the net last night..while in my flead-off mood and wasn't thinking. but i think i figured something out. ok, first season started in october and ending in the beginning of march, right? but the last 3 episodes they only played once a month. 13 eps=3 months total if played all the way through w/o skipping those months. 26= all 6 months played once a week for 6 months. makes absolute perfect sense now. so, we don't have to worry. i hope i didn't confuse anyone. (thinking some more) so, it'll play this fall and winter until february or something like that. unless they skip a week or put two episodes on one week..who knows? NBC is strange. i would rather watch it on DK alone. I don't trust NBC with their 'special reports' and stuff. (better to record it on DKids..one more logo is bad enough..i don't want my pics to have both NBC and DK logos..hehe) anyway, sorry guys if i made anyone mad or upset. *~*LaurenM*~*

that'd put anyone in a bad mood. having to do that in combo with school/a job/anything else you have to do.
i only get NBC. Without NBC, i don't think this show would make it too far. The show has to be good to air on a channel like NBC or it will get replaced. NBC does do some strange stuff. They say Ed will have new episodes for the rest of the year, when it comes back for its next season. I've no chance to catch the first episodes.

Ah that would explain all the ranting and the panicing, bless. I wasn't upset by it (it didn't concern me personally so I got to sit back and watch the raaaage, v. entertaining). *sends calming vibes to TML*

YAY!! a week and a half to go. so far so good as far as popularity of the show is concerned. (imagines it winning awards...) speaking of awards, we'll find out if it was nominated for a Gemini..er..Canadian Emmy..next week. anyway, i will also see if it's better to tape it on DK instead of NBC. it doesn't have 'special reports' and whatnot. hehe. also depends on since it's a local channel if the picture quality's ok. (*sigh*..poor cat STILL has fleas..*picking them off of him*.. )

I record the show on both NBC and DKids. Sometimes I like having the caption on and sometimes I don't, but my tv doesn't let me turn the caption off, so I have to record it with and without caption. Also, my vcr is in my other bedroom (Yes, I have two bedrooms. No, don't ask. it's a long story). My other bedroom acts as my brother's room when he visits, so I never know whether or not my vcr will record because he always turns the power on or puts in one of his tapes. So i like recording it twice.

I've got my own tape too... I've got the "Who" "Lost" and "Robot"plus "Shrink" tomorrow, then the new series. I know the order is kinda messy but it's cool with me. I've been 'hiding' the tape every week so no-one acidentally tapes anything else on it... it's clearly marked "Blake Holsey High EXCLUSIVE!!!" hehehe ;D
P.S. PLUS I'm getting better at cutting out the commercials perfectly, which I find makes viewing the tape easier. Well enough rambling from me!

I stink at cutting out commercials. i always end up recording over like a couple seconds of the last scene. hehe.
those four episodes you mentioned are the last 4 in order. hehe. how i know? 'cause tony was in all of them. except for Thursday and Magnet. hopefully he'll be in more than half this season....maybe 15-20. (gets website ready)..oh yeah..a week to go......oh yeah!! i'm READY!! i'm ready i'm ready.....and on monday, i can look at my digital cable interactive program guide to see how they summarized Wormhole2...and put a reminder on it. hehhe.
i'm so strange..and hiper....must be b/c it's friday.

I've started being rather obsessive over my taping. Luckily Fox Kids is showing them all in order so far. i want them all in order and I can't miss a single second. Yesterday I screamed at my big sister for leaving a tape in the machine so I missed the first few seconds of lifetime, even though it was just some shots of grass and some soft ball stuff! I did appologise later. Of course, my tapes are clearly labled: Katie's - Black Hole High - No tapey over. and then have the episode numbers across the top and the names on a seperate sticker on top of the tape. My family is disturbed, this is so unlike me!

yeah, most VCRs wait 2-3 seconds after you push the record button to actually begin recording. Also, when taking out the video and putting it back into the VCR, it tends to rewind 2-5 seconds depending. So i tend to let it run over when after the episode ends for about 6 seconds (though i cannot do that with Scout's Safari and BHH being back to back).
might want to keep that in mind...

You know, there is a tab on videos that when broken off, you are prevented from recording onto that video. if you change your mind and wish to record on it later, just put a piece of tap over the area where the tab is (that's what they say. I only break off the tabes when the video can't fit anymore episodes)
