i wish I had the ability to program the DVR remotely. however, I finally figured out VPN to my home network so I can set a download of a tv show from USENET which auto-injects to my Plex Server, which I can then sync-download to my tablet without VPN. /geekDoug On Sun, Apr 24, 2016 at 8:23 PM

This was a great example of why I love being able to program my DVR from afar. I'm visiting my mother this weekend. No problem with the last minute announcement. The show will be waiting for me when I get home. Sent from my iPad > On Apr 24, 2016, at 10:12 AM, PGage wrote: > > To be fair, whi

That was indeed Este Haim. In fact, all three of the Haim sisters (all of whom front the band, Haim) were there, the other two standing behind Este, further to the left as you look at the screen. Neither of them are as tall or as blonde as Este, though, so they don’t attract as much attention.

By the way, there was way too much Jimmy Fallon in the Prince tribute. They could have easily cut his opening comments in half and it would have been more poignant. But maybe they were looking to fill time. On Sun, Apr 24, 2016 at 10:23 AM, 'David Bruggeman' via TVorNotTV wrote: > Various comment

Various commenters online identify her as Este Haim, one of the members of, well, Haim.  I'm possibly out of the group's demo, as I'd never heard of either. David From: Steve Timko To: TV or Not TV Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2016 12:23 PM Subject: Re: [TV orNotTV] Re: The Artist Sometime

To be fair, while the After-Party performance may not have been Prince at his best, what makes it cool is the context, and people like Fallon, Rock and, at one point, JZ hopping up on stage to sing back-ups. It is amazingly cool in the way it might be if Prince suddenly appeared on stage to jam at

I stuck around but there was nothing but a stage closing "good night". I hate staying up until 1 am for nothing. The after party video was interesting to see. Yes, the setup was long but it set the scene for 4 am pretty well. On Sun, Apr 24, 2016, 6:13 AM JW wrote: > > “The Prince Show,” wi
