Do the smart thing Arlo, cut the cord and dump the TV all together. That would give you more time for romantic pursuits like role playing. Did Miss America earn her crown by being good to the judge?
Haha! This one is so good on so many levels. The idea of having the channel list framed is wonderful as it is so easy to lose the damn list of where the networks are on the cable stream! Is it channel 181 or 405?
But, the other funny part is now how…. in order to USE the list, you have to get up to go peer at it and could easily change the channel by hand…. but modern tvs…. that is no easy feat either…. so you need to either bring the remote with you and risk leaving it at the tv, or traipse back to the couch where you left the remote (possibly) and use it there. Haha!
The scrolling list on the tv itself is not easy or conducive to a quick identification of channels of course… and the scroll itself…. sometimes leads to motion sickness. :)
First can you even read the type at that distance, and second why don’t you have the online guide option with whoever is your signal provider, ie cable/internet.
Since most of our TV watching is in the kitchen I keep the listing paper from them on the fridge with the channel number side showing and the channel name side on the back – we can take it off and read it if we need to.

You don’t need it with cable, got it automatically on your own tv.

Huzzah, now you can get up to check the channel guide to change the channel. Just like the old days!

Why not just frame old TV Guides, Arlo?

The fast channel and program guide are on the smartphone or notepad.

Good start. Now they need to frame the instructions for all the remotes, etc.

I finally called up the cable company and now only have the dozen channels we ever watch. Saved a bundle on my monthly bill too.

What a great idea (Arlo’s, I’m commenting on the cartoon, something that seems to be a foreign concept here)
