I'm watching this on Pluto via Tivo and was reminded how difficult it is to find a show.
Previously, I was unable to find the show I wanted -- imdb lied about it being available,
but this time it's accurate, so I don't have to try to squeeze in the episodes this week
while it's free on Acorn via Xfinity Stream.
~~ This time, since I eventually found the show, I'm seeing that viewing it as an app on TiVo
it also not easy. The pause button doesn't work. Th [OK] button works and then the
controls are shown on the bottom of the screen, so so press [OK] a second time.
I don't know who came up with this ridiculous way to control an app on TiVo.
~~ Also, watching it this way has ads that I cannot skim past.
-- 2:21p I just got an e-mail from Best Buy that implies that I can get
3 months of Apple TV+ for free, It seem legit. It doesn't display the terms and conditions
until you click on [Redeem the offer], which I haven't yet done. It doesn't seem to have
any clue as to how long I have to redeem the offer.
-- 2:55p The app failed and there was no clear way of returning to where I let off.
But I found that I could use the TiVo search outside the app to search for the program and
after finding it, choose the app that I want to watch it with. However, it started at
the beginning of the episode. I can fast forward, but I can't skim through it.
I can fast forward, except it stops to watch a commercial. I'm not sure where I left off.
-- 3:41p I purposely paused and exited the app a few seconds before the episode was over
and tried to resume, but it started at the beginning of the episode again. So, watching
this way is not at all convenient. It seems difficult to believe that they haven't
figured out a better way by now.
-- 3:50p Leaving to get dinner @Brown's; Also went to Jewel; Some flurries.
-- 4:39p Home; Dinner @home: spaghetti and meatballs; ... "St. Denis Medical"

All 3 "Jeopardy" contestants had one "A" in first name and one "A" in last name
which is also true of my name.
