Sure, bring up the guide, and page through it looking for whatever catches your eye. It's not going to be easy, if you don't know the name of a program, or what channel it's on?
The EASY way, is to go to Titantv.com and set up an account. Select the DMA you are located in, and "Dish Network" as a choice. Then you can page through the guide on-line, and see if you can figure out what program you want. Doing it this way, IF you click on the channel number on the left side, it'll focus down to just that channel, and you can page through it that way.
