Rolling Acres - This and That

[farmerjan]

Never watched it.

Me either. Haven't had any TV for about 7-8 years now. No time and wasn't going to pay high prices for a satellite dish I was never in to watch. Might think about TV once I am retired, for the cold weather being in the house nights......

I believe the original show ran from early 90s to 2000.. it's final episode was 18 years ago. For the first few years of it, I still had a couple of teenagers at home...A new, near world ending teen angst drama each week's episode...neighbor did this, parent did that, girl/boy friend said "blah blah blah" and hurt my wittle feelings", business did me wrong!, school didn't go right...wah wah wah!..

Teenagers...

I cancelled my satellite ten years ago. Got tired if paying $100 to watch 10 channels. Now its streaming channels on the roku or an antenna. Suits me just fine.

Never watched it.

Me either. I suppose I would likely recognize the names of some of the actors since I ASSUME some became more than "one show wonders" but I don't know.

Can't get rid of you eh @RollingAcres? OK, I GUESS we can let you stay But NO stealing my tractor!
Happy holiday season to you and your family as well.

Doesn't roku come over the internet?

Its wifi, so you can stream just about anything. I can even watch live tv. I have Discovery, Travel Channel, and NatGeo to name a few. You have to have a subscription to a supported cable or satellite tv service to watch live stream, but some of them let you watch for like an hour free. You can watch alot of unlocked videos for free, too.

Internet based TV won't work for me as I don't have access to "high speed" or unlimited data. All I have is satellite and it's not fast, and for any serious amount of data, it's very expensive. My phone can do a WIFI hot spot, but I don't have sufficient signal and normally get 1 or 2 bars if lucky. unlimited data there would be costly as well. And I hate watching anything on a small screen anyway. My phone is used as a phone and sometimes GPS. That's about it.
