I’ll go to my grave not knowing how to work my TV. Even with the remote, I have no control over either the channels or language.
For instance, last night I watched 4 episodes of Project Runway, a show I enjoy because I love beautiful clothes. Tonight I spoke ‘Project Runway’ into the microphone and CSI came on. I did that cycle at least three times and decided to settle for CSI.
Big sporting events are favorites of mine. So I tuned in the SuperBowl and the commentary was in Spanish. I tried a few other channels and they commentary was in Spanish on all of them.
However, The Masters at Augusta was in English, so no problem there.
March Madness, the Final Four, was an exciting tournament this year. Yep, commentary in Spanish on my TV. ‘ Law and Order’, by Dick Wolfe is one of my favorite series. It is so well written. But I am unable to control the episodes. One episode played 4 times before it moved forward to the next one. I dunno ?!?!! Then, finally, new episodes appear. But I don’t control the order. I feel special when new episodes appear and settle back to enjoy, with a sigh of pleasure. And it’s always with a certain amount of trepidation that I ask for that show on the mic.
My TV tells ME what I’m going to watch. Oh, well, I’ll pour a glass of red and watch CSI.
