Dish.. Lets watch some TV.

Why would Murdock want it. He had Direct and sold it. Now he wants to buy the second string sat company?
.

They bought lots of 'national' airtime on CBS. Everyone is seeing it on their CBS affiliate.

if it was only true what he says, so stop worrying now goaliebob99 and watch some direcTV.

On more than one occasion, Charlie has advised people to "watch some DirecTV".

He perceives the competition to be Cable...

Well, I live in a large DMA, and I see it on my broadcast channels, too. It looks like Charlie's going for suburban and maybe some inner city urban markets, too.

Me thinks Charlie is going for everything he can!

Oh, I forgot to say, the Comcast guy was at my house yesterday hooking up my internet (I switched from DSL to Cable because I need a much higher upstream for work). He saw my Dish and the first thing he said was "How many HD Channels do they have? I keep seeing that commercial on TV, where the CEO is talking."

I showed him my guide in All HD. He was amazed. While Comcast here has great Internet (16/4) is what I got. They have left the analog tier on for the older people, so they are not all digital on the TV front. Outside of the locals, they only have about 10 HD channels here.

Every time I watch that commercial the lip synch is out. So Charlie's lips are moving and the sound is coming out about 2 seconds later. It's like watching a dubbed Japanese movie. It isn't a good advertisement for someone to "watch tv" if the sound isn't on the same track as the video.

It sure is not out of sync on my dish, my locals or network. There are settings in yor equipment to fix it. Maybe we are only watching HD and not SD for it, too.

Great commercial. All of a sudden the bull is gone. I'm waiting for Direct's response. I still see their old ones. I am glad Dish has dumped that Spaceman Free HD one. That sucked.

If Charlie were planning a sell out, he should be pumping up the stock price so as to reap the greatest rewards at the conclusion of the deal, the current track does not appear to optimize that outcome.

It is ONLY on this commercial . My tv is fully in sync and so is my dvr.

Maybe you're getting the 3D version...

don't listen to bob, he has absolutely no clue what he talks about...

Hey, I work in the building behind him.

 

[eurosport]

Their is rumors that Murdock is trying to take over dish.

He's why I dumped Direct a few years back.
If he gets Dish I'll cancel them the same day I find out!
That POS needs none of my $$$! :rant:
