Don't you just HATE it when you go somewhere else and you gotta watch other local TV?

[RainMan]

I mean I like my local ABC, NBC, FOX, CBS, and WB (PBS is the same everywhere) but I hate it when I go to a different part of Iowa and gotta like figure out what their channels are and what's on syndication and get used to their logos and such I hated it.

I hated how the Simpsons were on at 3PM on FOX 28/40 instead of at 5 and 6 here in Des Moines.....god I hate Cedar Rapids......Regis and Kelly was on ABC instead of CBS and Jerry Springer was on NBC right after the today show and WB had Jenny Jones (which i love) on at 11am.....when it's on at 1am here in Des Moines, which I guess is kind of good.

Like in Cedar Rapids it was this:

KGAN 2 - CBS
KWWL 7 - NBC
ABC 9 (dunno the four letters)
WB 20 (dunno the four letters)
FOX 28/40 (Dunno the four letters but they share 2 channels cuz 40 used to be ABC back in the 90s and before....)


I couldn't stand it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


That's why I love my local channels.....I know when everything's on without even lookin at a TV guide!

Yah it bugs me trying to figure out the stations. What worse is RADIO stations.

[Cactus Jack]

Yeah, I hate that too LOL

Actully I like checking out other TV channels myself. But radio stations are a different story. When I go camping every summer in Upstate New York, it takes me and my dad like a half-hour to find something. lol

Every time I go out of town, it's hard to find the radio stations because I have no idea what they play and it doesn't help that some stations change their formats sometimes. By the time I leave town, I know the stations but that is too late.

For that we have KYXY 96.5 and to be honest I absolutely cannot stand that station. When I was talking about opportunity costs here is a good example. My previous bus driver was very lenient when it came to behavior and we misbehaved a lot. She listened to 96.5 and the people on my bus last year couldn't stand it. We listened to Howard Stern on our walkmans instead.
