1. Sadly, me poor democrat

2. no. It looked like it was made for the 14-21 set...

3. No TV at all here.

Sometimes C-Span over internet, that is it.

4. They had a good clip about paraplegic surfers

5. Ain't on my tv thang

I don't even watch TV much, save for the music channels (WHEN THEY ARE ACTUALLY PLAYING VIDEOS!), Comedy Central (South Park, Daily Show, anything but the redneck show!), History, Discovery, C-SPAN, and shit like that. And since I don't pay for it, fine by me since my dad is using it more than I! I don't think we got Current, but he's got the SIMPLE (cheapass!) PLAN on Dish Nutwork, so, there ya go.

7. Mine either. But, if I knew who the sponsors were, I'd support them.

Anybody got a list?

6. I watched a little, but I can't get into it. I guess I am too old

and it is targeted to a younger demographic. To tell the truth though I don't think I would watch it even if I fit into that demographic. Somehow getting my news dished to me like a commercial in sound bytes and clever camera work doesn't sit well with me. I really like something a little meatier in my current events with some depth, something that I can learn from.

8. That is pretty much the same with me

but I just wanted to get an idea what others in DU think

[Armstead]

9. No. I tried but it's too blah and repitive

It's a good idea very badly executed.

Their "hosts" have less than no charisma -- they have no personality.

Three of the times I've tuned in -- honest to God -- EVERY time they have the same frickin story on about some glassed-in prefab house. I was beginning to think it was the Glass House channel.

I cant tell the ads from the pods often. These videos on "emerging new musicians" turn out to be record company ads.

They have these little "news pods" that are so inane they make Fox Newsbreak look like the BBC by comparison.

10. it's not available through my cable service
