On Our DVR

April 3rd, 2009 · 14 Comments

We record the series (automatically records every time it’s on) for all of these. There are a lot, but some of these aren’t airing right now. They’re still in the list so that when the new season starts it will start recording automatically. We limit the number of times a show can record before deleting the oldest to 5 shows. I like having a lot recording because then when nothing is on you have a whole queue of shows to pick from.

  • The Simpsons (3 times/day plus the new ones on Sunday night)
  • Lost
  • American Idol
  • Scrubs
  • Heroes
  • How I Met Your Mother
  • The Office
  • Top Chef
  • Mad Men
  • Fringe
  • It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
  • Magnum P.I.
  • Survivor
  • The Beast
  • Oprah Winfrey
  • 30 Rock
  • My Name is Earl
  • The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency
  • America’s Next Top Model
  • Flight of the Concords
  • Amazing Race
  • The Daily Show With Jon Stewart
  • Better Off Ted
  • Dhani Tackles the Globe
  • Eastbound & Down

Anything we should be watching that we’re not? There are a few shows we watch a lot that we don’t record. Not sure why.

Mo Rocca & Rachelle, The Loop, Chicago

Last night Chris & I went to a taping of “Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me,” a nationally-syndicated show taped in the Chase Auditorium and put on by National Public Radio & Chicago Public Radio. It’s format is part Daily Show and part a quiz show. They talk about current affairs, make fun of news, and have contests with callers and with the panelists.

The host is Peter Sagal and the judge & scorekeeper was Carl Kasell, who is also known as “the voice of NPR.” Carl flies in every week from DC to do the show. Also flying in every week are an assortment of panelists. Last night the panelists were Roy Blount Jr., Roxanne Roberts, and Mo Rocca… which is who this photo is with. You may recognize him from the Daily Show several years back.. or VH1 more recently.

Chris has more photos from the show here.
