    From anim8rfsk@21:1/5 to All on Wed Mar 5 18:04:58 2025
    Stuff my DVR recorded the four months I was away from it:

    In reverse order of the most recent recording, with the number of episodes
    in parentheses:

    Adventures of Superman (94)
    Luckily, I’ve seen all of these

    Jock Mahoney (12).
    Various old westerns and guest appearances on various series

    Law & Order (49).
    A handful of new episodes and half a dozen random reruns for every new one

    Disney’s Zorro (73)
    Back-and-forth between different seasons, with handfuls of seemingly random episodes

    Harry O (6).
    Starting from the beginning!

    Death in Paradise (12)
    True to form the lazy incompetent worthless people at PBS just show this
    with no indication of what episode or number or anything about it.

    Tracker (10)
    I think I’ve seen all of these

    The Invaders (16).
    The final episodes of the series as it starts over with the pilot episode tomorrow

    The Time Tunnel (18).
    Got them all on Blu-ray

    Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (14)
    In glorious black-and-white!

    NCIS: origins (9)
    I gave up watching this, but I guess I forgot to tell the DVR

    Dianne Kay (2).
    The same two episodes of Diagnosis Murder She Wrote they repeat endlessly

    Password (60)
    They show these in random order so I was recording them trying to catch
    some guest stars I liked

    Blue Bloods (6)
    I watched these in the hospital, unable to hear them as my crazy roommate
    had the investigation channel on full volume, so that he would have to
    scream at his fake wife to abuse her on the phone

    Stupidman & Lameass (7).
    With the big happy ending as they all die horribly!

    Murder in a Small Town (5)
    I think I’ve seen these not that there’s any real continuity

    Doctor Odyssey (4)
    The DVR says I’ve watched all but two of these

    NCIS (4).
    DVR says I’ve watched all but one of these

    And after that, we’re in the Halloween themed stuff which I would’ve recorded about the time I went into the hospital but not seen yet

    LOL. With today's tech it is easy to have a large collection. I've got
    so much more than that just in TV shows. Then there's the movies and
    there's also various cartoons (mostly super hero related like the
    various Batman shows) and anime. Much more than I could likely ever
    watch even if I spent every waking hour watching but at least I have a
    good selection to choose from. Something for every mood.

    In theory, this is all on my hard drive. Amazingly it says it’s only 34% full.

    Exactly.

    Last night I managed to get my WD drive back up and running which adds 3 TB
    and 3000 shows and movies to what’s available to me.

    I saw them all a few years ago. But there’s no exceptions in the
    programming, if it knows Jock Mahoney is in it and it’s on a channel I get
    it would’ve recorded it.

    Here’s the breakdown of the 12 (now 13) appearances it found:

    The Nevadan
    Ladies Day (episode of Laramie; as I recall, it’s the one that changes the show format and introduces spring Byington)
    The Hoots (episode of Kung Fu)
    Swamper Ike (episode of death Valley days)
    King of the Cowboys (episode of the fall guy)
    Bandelero!
    The Purrfect caper (episode of Batman)
    Better luck next time (part two of Batman)
    Santa Fe
    One last shot (episode of the streets of San Francisco. These are always
    very annoying because they are cut for time and he’s a background actor at the police precinct and usually doesn’t show up in the final)
    Charlie (episode of the fall Guy)
    Man from Kansas (episode of Laramie)
    Colt breaks out (episode of the fall guy)

    “Record by actor” is a useful function as it gives you a wide variety of programming to watch later. :-) The big drawback to it is there doesn’t
    seem to be any way to edit it later or even find what’s in there much less stop it. It will just record it forever.

    Yep. You can pretty much say the same of all the old western channels as
    well.

    Turns out to be season 13. I spot checked and erased all but one that I didn’t remember and watched the return of Florence episodes.



    The Time Tunnel (18).
    Got them all on Blu-ray

    Did a wholesale erase of these. They’re nice Comfort watching in the middle of the night, but I have them all in much better quality.

    It became old enough to legally buy alcohol.
