There have been a few TV shows we recorded that started skipping frames, and when you try to pause or fast-forward through the bad section, it gives all kinds of weird system errors. Hello Comcast, come and get your junk box, please!

We did not get as much watching done as we liked to, but we still managed to scratch Bones, Dollhouse and Heroes off our list, and we still have all day today to make a dent in our Netflix stash.
