Question To those of you who have MeTV

2 questions:1)Do they air more TV show(in orher words,how much of a TV show do they air-all of it ,or do they cut parts out-)or more commercials?And finally,question #2)Do they air their series with full-screen closing credits?

The ones I have been recording have very little if any cut off for commercials and have complete closing credits.

The last time I watched it was a few weeks ago, and they sped up the opening of "Hawaii 5-0".

I have caught them speeding up shows a few times, but they don't really cut anything. For example, they actually air the full opening to Cheers in most episodes, which I don't think has aired anywhere since the original NBC run.

I haven't really noticed, but I'll start paying more attention!

I watch Petticoat Junction. The shows runs 23 minutes minus commercials. I don't think they edit anything out but I do notice time-speeding. Sometimes its not that noticeable. They air the series with full-screen closing credits. I think it was remastered so the picture is sharp and the colors are vibrant. Most of their show looks amazing by the way with the exception of Route 66 which airs on weekends. That show was definitely cut, but I'm sure its the suppliers fault and not me-tv doing the editing.

I too have noticed the speeding up. I was watching Happy Days and the end credits were going faster than normal (and the music was speeded).
