  • Let’s Add Gremlins to My Previous List

    Sitting here watching television when I decided I wanted to change the channel. Usually not a problem. For some reason this time my Comcast remote switches to TV instead of Cable on its own. So when I went to page up or down it started flipping through CATTV 15 to CATTV 17 with nothing but…

  • Do I Hold Grudges? Nah! LOL

    Okay so if you are a person and want to express your displeasure with a company how do you complain? I voice my opinion to my friends and family and that circle has grown to include my online friends and family too. I also avoid using those products and services ever again, if I can…

  • Comcast Cable Sucks Here’s Why – Part 7: FEARnet

    Well I have pretty much already beat this to death, but I feel it needs repeating. FEARnet is the only horror channel on Comcast and quite frankly it is the worst one out there. Come on Comcast give us something better please. Oh, you can ask for channels but they never add them so why…

    Well if you have been reading my blog for any amount of time you know I have an ongoing issue with Comcast Cable and their crappy service. This time it is their customer service. I have already pointed out their enormous cost before so let me just tell you how shocked I was by my…

  • Comcast Is Taking Me For A Ride

    Comcast is so ticking me off again. They splash advertisements all over the place trying to get you to sign up for their triple play program (TV, internet and phone) by enticing you with a free gift. Last month it was a Wii, the month before that a TV this month it is a years…

    Aggressive drivers really should behave themselves while driving the company car. Maybe they get so caught up in their speeding and tailgating they forget they are in an easily identifiable vehicle.  I had this Comcast van (#50 by the way) riding my but the whole way up route 12 in Reading today (around 6:15). He…

  • Comcast DVR at It Again

    Well, I was hoping to be able to actually watch all the shows I had on my crappy Motorola DVR from Comcast before it finally died, but it does not look like I will be able to unless I do it quick. I got home tonight and it was doing that same lovely trick of…

  • FEARnet Sucks Part II

    Like all good horror flicks this post has a sequel too. I have been getting hits from people searching on how to access FEARnet on demand. And you know what that is a good question. When they first announced the “channel” on Comcast I was excited but I too had trouble figuring it all out.…

  • FEARnet on demand video sucks

    As an on demand service under the movie category I expect certain things. One of which is no commercials. They have put commercials smack in the middle of their films. When I first heard about this new service from Comcast I was very happy, especially since we do not get the channels that Direct TV…
