DR Singdaw, I hope a temporary residence can be found and a kennel can be avoided.  Good luck.

I was watching the show from the DVR so it was too late to switch.  I tried turning on the subtitles and there were none...at all!  None for the entire episode.  I don't know if it's my TV, DVR or what, but none of the hi-def shows that I've watched have subtitles. :-\ Not "Lost" or "Grey's Anatomy" from last night, or any.

Are you trying to turn them on through the TV or through the cable box? I believe all these shows are close captioned, so you should try the settings on your cable box. They're there if you can only figure out how to access them.

A dvd copy of it would be much to my liking DR Matth!!! I am sure I have some Jeff Richards to send in return.

I'll check to see if it recorded when I go back down later. If it did, I'll dub a copy for you. Do you want me to eliminate commercials or just dub as is?

For tonight:

DVD: THE KITE RUNNER




Have you read the book? (I haven't, but it is based on a book.) The film is quite wonderful despite a contrivance or two to enhance the drama.

OK. If you change your mind, let me know. I won't likely get to the show until tomorrow and thus won't erase it until then.

I had a full afternoon of viewing enjoyment.

I began with Wednesday night's season finale for CSI: NY. Winding up the "taxi cab killer" story arc was OK drama. Not much mystery since no one had any idea who the killer was; it wasn't a character we had met in some other venue. But it was enjoyable enough.

Next I watched last night's SUPERNATURAL. It was the season finale for it, too, and boy what excitement! And a beaut of a cliffhanger for the summer. Great special effects, too. Really as good as I've ever seen on a TV show of the horror genre.

Next came Wednesday night's BOSTON LEGAL. The Denny storyline, while ridiculous, had a good capper. The female priest storyline was ludicrous as was the prostitute/Jerry Espinson plot.

Next, I cracked open THE INVADERS and got two episodes watched. The pilot episode featured James Daly as best friend to Roy Thinnes (friends of Roy don't tend to last very long on the show). Good, fairly creepy opening episode.

The second episode featured Roddy McDowall as a human experiment by the aliens to control mankind through mind control rather than in the conversion units from the pilot. Though Roddy didn't survive, he proved it wouldn't work, so it's back to the drawing board for the aliens.

Ellen Corby and Laurence Naismith were the other guests stars on the episode. Dabbs Greer was featured as a priest (who was an alien).

Roy Thinnes has filmed an introduction for every episode. We've all aged, of course, but he was SUCH a beauty back then. Those blue eyes are electric, captured in these color episodes.

Through my TV...I don't know if my cable box has a "closed captions" option.  I've looked through a lot of the options in the set-up, but I don't think I've ever noticed something like that.  I will definitely look around tongiht.

Yes, when it first came out, and since then have been telling everyone to read it.  Obviously you didn't listen to me ;)
