Do Television Shows Need TV?

Yes, I was watching television on my computer, and not on a TV. I was using a website to watch my shows. Does that make it any less of a TV? Do I really need a “TV” to watch my favorite television shows? TV on the Web? Really? Ohhh yeah, really. How convenient is that?
TidalTV looks much like you would expect a full-on DVR experience to look on a “real” television. The channels available are relatively mainstream. There are more channels available than what you would possibly expect on a service like this. You can search and browse through the different major channels, or even check out their listing of “on demand” shows.
Kat got distracted while researching this site for the blog post. She found out that the Food Network channel is on here, and Paula Deen just happened to be showing at that time. We may have lost her for awhile, y’all. She’s quite addicted to the lovely Paula. Oh no… she just found the Wedding network. Since her daughter is getting married at the end of September, we may not see Kat surface again until after that. Apparently, that particular channel has everything and anything you can think of that has to do with weddings.
See what I mean? You can sit right at your computer and watch all your favorite television shows. It’s completely free, and there’s nothing to sign up for. How much better could it possibly get?

I think TV is great on the computer the more that a computer can do the better because all people really want is a device that can do everything. Link your TV to your computer so its still on the TV but being brought to you from somewere else. It’s still TV.

IT’S ABOUT TIME!
TV needs to be as easy to navigate/use as computers! Actually, TV needs to be done away with, it’s high time everything is available not only at times dictated by some schedule, if I want to watch Carl Sagan’s Universe I shouldn’t have to wait for a special airing and have to RECORD it! I should be able to search it, click it, watch it, then and there.
I actually only watch TV because History channel and Discovery have yet to allow their shows to be available on the net….(hintaty hint hint!)

TV needs to be done away with, what is this URGE for networks to keep their programs on TV ONLY?! Do they get some sort of kick out of it?!
When I want to watch a show, I shouldn’t have to worry about getting home and seeing it on time, or recording it to watch it later, I want to search it, click it, view it.
I want the names of these people who are getting kicks out of forcing us to stay glued to a TV when THEY want us to. Schedule-dictated programing is to be done away with, such caveman tactics simply won’t fly in a modern internet-driven world.

Now most computer companies let you choose a TV Tuner for your laptop/desktop, so I think television is broadening their horizons. Not to mention you can watch the Olympics Live on NBC.com…

The technology of television has continued to advance through the years, but what you are now offered was beyond imagination a few years ago. Yes, there are more choices to make buying a television set these days due to the numerous new designs and the fact that television moved away from analog to digital for improved data transfer.
