DVD's Hurting Syndication?

[WPPCProductions]

I think if people would to record their favorite tv show instead of buying the dvd collections,but now and the last 8  more years, tv networks and cable channels are compressing the time and littering the screen of promos and  other crap in bold graphics flying in your face and desappear..oh that pesty tv network icon that  appeared in the early 1990's. to remind me what channel i'm on,it also put a snag on video tape pirates.now yes it's worth to buy a dvd collection.

it bother's me, when local stations and networks shrink down the credits at the end of programs to show thier lousy promotions. also voice overs back then bother me at the end of shows.

Captex,
Don't "be bothered." The station LEGALLY has the right to do that.

When YOU own a tv station, you will want to TELL the cable viewers with a thousand other channels that YOU are the place that they an watch that particular show.

Also, there IS now a contractual requirement that they not lop off the closing credits - but technically, "shrinking" them is ok.

Or how bout those sloppy insert ad's on cable,I notice now Comcast  is getting better with it,back in the old days,the ad's over ran into the syndicated  shows and the current programming.

Dear Landtuna,

I am glad that you just just got out of your time machine and that you know that the Big Bang Theory will never be a classic.

I am sure that many previous  Land tunas knew that Gillians Island, The Beverly Hillbillies and even I love Lucy would never become classics.
