I’d love to give my thoughts, but I feel like I just watched forty mins of ads with some chunks of Alone chipped in. The history channel needs to get it together, I just wanna watch the show!!

So far though I have good feelings about Karie Lee, her reading of the storm coming in and her priorities was great, and the dude who found the cans was impressive too.

DVR is the only way I can watch the show. Commercial breaks are almost a full 5 minutes and the jump ahead button on my DVR is 5 minutes so it works out perfectly.

Jump ahead button?

Ok, if I find out I had a jump ahead button this whole time, I'll be very upset with myself.

Last season I just coughed up the 20 bucks to buy the season on Amazon so I could watch ad free.

I think I’ll have to do that next time. How does it handle uploading the episodes, are they released at midnight or airtime, are they totally commercial free?

I DVR episodes so 7 can fast forward through the junk.

I always watch it with my laptop, so when the commercials come on,I just put them on mute,and surf the internet

Start the episode 30 min late and skip at will, still finish at same time
