We began our stint as a Nielsen Media Research (television ratings) family on Thursday. Kind of boring the first day ..... during the daytime, I actually spend more time listening to one of the Music Channels (the '900 tier' on Suddenlink cable) than I do actually watching television.
At night, though, it was different ..... plenty to choose from, and moving back-and-forth between channels. "My Name is Earl" and "The Office" (on KWES - 9) really are 'must-see TV' in our house. But except for those two half-hour blocks, we spent a chunk of the evening watching the MLS Eastern Conference Finals (on FXSOCR - 328).
Something we didn't get to watch - airing at the same time as those other programs I mentioned - was "Final Fantasy: The Spirit Within," a not-so-popular animated film inspired by the popular role-playing game. It was showing on one of the free hi-def channels (HDNET - 731) that Suddenlink offers, and I suspect it would have looked really good in wide-screen, hi-def sight and sound ..... they repeat those programs throughout the month, so I'll be sure to catch it later.
By the way ..... there was only one goal in that MLS game - but it was a DOOZEY!
