Is this Great Feature only on Comcast Cable Boxes? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

"The REMIND FEATURE?" This is so great because you wouldn't believe how easy it is to forget that you want to watch something later and miss it. You get to thinking about other things and just miss out on something you really wanted to see. But with the Remind feature, you can set that and never miss a Program you want to see. I guess that's why Comcast Cable is so worth the money I pay every month.

That must come in handy for you when you need a reminder to watch those Roseanne, Bonanza and M*A*S*H Marathons.

I feel asslep earlier this evening and forgot I set the reminder to watch 20/20. And that's what made me realize how great the feature was because after I woke up, I was not even thinking about 20/20 until the reminder came up on the screen at 9:59pm-lol

I don't even know how to use the feature, but my husband uses it all the time.

I agree....I got the 3 for $99 special which includes, Internet, Cable, and Phone. Otherwise I'd pay $122.00 I also have the HD cable box.

I have had 3 different cable companies and all their boxes had the reminder feature. It's not a big deal.

Well I'm not sure who started it, but it's still one of the best inventions this decade for cable
