I feel the same way about seeBS & your description of NCIS.

Speaking of which, the wife & I missed the season opener this week. Fortunately our cable company has a feature called 'On Demand'. It's great. I have hundreds of movies I can watch whenever I want for free. The same goes for hundreds of other offerings like shows from many cable TV offerings.

You select what you want to watch & within a few seconds the show starts. You can pause, rewind or fast forward it just like a video.

It also has a Pay per view feature that includes newly released movies, etc. Recently they added a limited number of network TV shows for a smaller fee. Fortunately they offer NCIS.

Since we missed the season opener & we are addicted to it, I will break down & pay a buck to see it. I doubt I make that mistake again.

:-)

A while back I told you about a feature called 'On Demand' available through my cable provider Comcast. I noted it offered recent episodes of the CBS Crime drama NCIS for a small (pay for view) fee.

Turns out I was wrong. It's free. Better still, they have added all of the CSI shows, plus Numbers - all free.

That's great for me as I can now time shift all of those shows to watch them at my convenience. An added benefit is I can watch them in about 42 minutes as there are no commercials.

That last tidbit tells me that this new feature will not be available very long - at least not for free.
