Long Way Round The other day you said you had 8000 channels I think you have direct TV?
And then you still pay extra for Netflix Streaming? How much is that?
OK I looked it up, it start a 8 bucks a month. My wife says it's for poor people who don't have cable  So I'll stop by with a couple of potted meat sandwiches later.
It looks like it's the same shows that WERE already on direct TV or dish that people missed?

No Direct TV...Have Charter cable.
$799 a month for Netflix streaming and worth every dime for me.
But...If you want to get DVD's in snail mail, the price goes up. I'm thinking of going back to the full plan (both streaming and DVD) because the library of films is much more compete with the DVD plan.

It's just a dot, but what a difference a dot makes! 
And, "What a difference a day makes...24 little hours, the bird and the flowers...."
So. Got anything to say about documentaries? Better than watching reruns of Law and Order.

Charter sucks. I have it for the internet because it's the fastest otherwise I would tell them to go pound sand.
I can't really say I'm saving money having Direct TV instead.

OK. I prefer a good documentary to most any sitcom or drama series. I don't have Netflix. I don't think my internet speed is up to it. Even watching short videos can be brutally frustrating some days. I don't have pay tv either so my documentary-ing is mostly limited to SOPTV stuff. I'm not complaining about their quality though, just the quantity.
Sometimes when my internet speed is feeling particularly frisky I'll indulge in some Youtube history documentaries.

What's goofy here is that no one seems to have any interest in documentaries.
I like 'em. Often good information served up in a way easy to absorb.
I was hoping someone would report on a few they have thought good.
Whatever.

I did post a list on another thread very recently. I watch MOSTLY documentaries.
People watch then Wonky but just don't admit to some reality documentaries. Everyone wants to say they love to watch Cosmos but won't admit to Duck Dynasty or Honey Boo boo
