How do you know what to watch on TV? Do you just turn it on whnever you feel like it and channel hop untill you find something you want to watch? Do you buy a TV Guide and plan what TV you are going to watch? Do you turn it on and flick to Teletext to see what will be on later? Do you maybe rely on adverts that come on while watching it to find out what else will be showing in the future? Maybe you don't watch TV at all becuase you're too busy here on MyLot?

I just guess what is on the Television and scan all the channels and try to watch shows that I like and shows that seem interesting and watch for it. However if there are no good shows to watch and nobody in my household are playing the computer, I log online and scan my e-mail. However if my brother or my sister is using the personal computer then I would settle watching good movie in the dvd, I would scan dvds I haven't seen and watch it.

Actually, I have a DVR cable box...so I record what I want to watch so I can fast forward through the commercials. ha ha So in that way, I guess I plan what I am going to watch by the TeleText. Great thing is...I can just search a title and program my cab;e box to record the entire series. :)

I subscribe to TV Guide and let that be my first guide to what is on during primetime. To what we need to tape and what we will watch. Though TV Guide isn't always right. So sometimes I have to double make sure with our interactive guide to see if its a repeat or not or even on. But I do the flipping through the channels during non-prime time and when nothing is on for us to watch during regular primetime.

I am using digital cable TV. The TV guide is downloaded from the company's server and I can just view the guide using my remote control. I confess though that it is sometimes easier for me to grab the guide off the company's website. That's what I usually do haha. :P
