Anybody like Cable?  

hi,i have interest in only animal planet and discovery channels regularly and at times cartoon net work.Otherwise i will be on net only..have a nice time.

yes i do like cable...sometimes, there ARE days when it feels like im going through 800 channels of nothing, but it's not often. it just happens once in awhile. i like having tv land, the channel dedicated to all the old shows, and i like the lifetime movies, but they can make you so sad sometimes and i like being able to have free music channels! it's nice to have when i want to exercise at home.

Most of my very favorite shows are on the cable channels. I watch all the repeats of Cold Case and Without a Trace on TNT, the house hunting shows, My First Place and Property Virgins on HGTV and several of the cooking channel shows too. I like the crime solving shows on Tru TV and watch Nancy Grace and Jane Velez Mitchell for the current crimes. There are very few "must watch" programs for me on the regular channels, but I do like Big Bang Theory and The Good Wife.

I love watching cable television and spend several hours each day doing just that. I like some of the same things as you when it comes to my favorite channels. I LOVE the History Channel and watch it almost everyday, especially when it has to do with American or World History. I also like the National Geographic channel but don't watch it that much, unless I know that there will be something on that I like. In addition to those, I watch a lot of news shows and sports. Another channel that I have become addicted to is the Home and Garden channel. My wife and I watch it daily; our favorite show on there is House Hunters. It's addicting.

The channels you mentioned are considered extended basic and I had all those stations removed last year. I would rather take the extra $75 a month and use it for something else. I still to get WGN and TBS and the CSPAN and weather channel plus my local channels. I have basic which is $22 a month and extended basic is alittle over $95 a month. St. Louis Missouri is one of the highest in cable rates.

I really like cable because I enjoy the wide variety of choice it gives you above standard TV. Living in the UK, we have different channels to you guys across the pond, but some channels often provide international programmes. My current favourite is Dexter, I'm really digging it atm

Usually if there is nothing on that I am not interested in (very rarely), I just flick over to the film channels and see whats on. Yes the films often repeat themselves a lot, but there is a good range of very top-quality films

Hello celticeagle me too often watch some soaps and movies on cables, some reality shows etc stuff, and like it much.Nowadays mostly view my cable, whenever my net connection is slow or down, or even when would like to take an break from my online works.There are many movies constantly going on Star movies, HBO, Sony, etc channels, and also some good emotional and comedy soaps everytime i start my cable.Even some times watch regularly some reality shows mostly consisting of action and drama.I enjoy my cable to the max extend, whenever time is avail to me.Happy mylotting.

I love Animal Planet..Dogs 101 and this one show I can't remember the name of where they do bios on mythical type creatures..lol..I also like the DIY network and watching This Old House. I like the Travel Channel too. Jeff Bordain and a couple of others I like. I love the history channel when they are showing those shows you like too.

AMC and TMC for sure also like the Western Channel today they are running all Gunsmoke yesterday was HAve Gun will Travel and the day before The Virginian great old time tv shows!

in the era of cable channel we witness many good things that give momentum to our day to day experiences..but there are many negative effects on our social life also, one, the news channels present news as cheap commodities for cheap popularity and maximizing profit,,there is some nasty competition among themselves also in the sphere of breaking news,,so we should watch the news channels as facts presenting medium not in a modified manner rather in a realistic one..second,,some people are addicted of watching some specific serials through which the channels try to kill the valuable time of viewers and to carry forward the profit oriented commercial campaigns,,so we should watch serials as time pass or for gaining some valuable things,and stay away from addictive nature...

in my case i like to watch Discovery channel, National Geography, Animal Planet,,as these channels are very much useful in the directions of acquiring general knowledge as well as entertainment...
