The broadcast just stops. The picture looks like it is on pause, or the screen goes black. In the worse case you will see signal lost. On Sun, Jun 14, 2009 at 9:04 PM, Reece Jennings mcjennings...@yahoo.comwrote: I live in the city of Hartford, and most of Connecticut is pretty well covered.

I think producers are scared of alienating new viewers by lopping on 7 seasons of continuitythe same excuse comic publishers make when there is another Spiderman #1 (Brand New Day anyone?) or a new universe all together (Ultimate Universe). On Sun, Jun 14, 2009 at 8:28 PM, Daryle Lockhart

Pardon me. My last rant came out so furiously that I left off my preamble... I can't really see where any new viewers would come from. The series is barely six years dust, and it was in fairly regular re-airings on FX until last year. Anyone who can say that they haven't seen must be from a
