My rules is I delete if it's the end of summer and I haven't watched it (except for summer shows which get until Christmas time).
For some unknown reason, I've been catching up with the last half of CSI from last season (unknown being I don't know why I've been watching them; that show has gotten so awful); I didn't finish The Good Wife until 3 weeks ago. It seems like every season I end up letting one or two shows pileup and watch them in the summer when there are less shows to watch. -- David Risner Software Engineer MERLOT, California State University On Tue, Sep 7, 2010 at 1:13 PM, Jason Carpio <[email protected]> wrote: > I actually put rules in place regarding backlog.. > > if a show lingers on my DVR or HDD for a month.. i delete and wait for the > DVD. > > > On Tue, Sep 7, 2010 at 3:09 PM, Joe Hass <[email protected]> wrote: > >> http://www.avclub.com/articles/what-really-constitutes-a-spoiler,44508/ >> >> Two things I take from this: >> >> 1.
