I tried to record the Vietnam series. I managed to record the first episode but wasn't given the "Record Series" option at that time by DirecTV. I didn't realize the series would not be one episode per week, so I missed a couple of episodes. It wasn't until episode four that I managed to set up the "Record Series" option. I won't watch it until I can figure out how to get access to those two missing episodes. The PBS station doesn't have an "on demand/streaming" option.

I finished watching "The Sinner." (The series was only 6-8 episodes - I forget the exact number.) I'd give it three stars out of five. The ending was definitely a surprise, but I guess I was hoping for something more devious. o_O

KTLA News Mexico 6.1 Earthquake

It's an after shock from the 8.1 quake, the one that happened roughly south of Mexico City.

I use DirecTv, too, Suzie. Sometimes the "Record Series" option doesn't automatically pop up like it should, which is rather odd, but even in this digital world we live in today there are still idiosyncrasies.

I imagine it`s a copyright thing.
Here in germany some shows and movies are blocked from recording by the production company.

Very true. One which annoys me a lot. The DVD & Blu-ray set is available in the US & Canada but there is no international shipping from PBS (from what I can see anyway).

However the DVD (can't see the Blu-ray available) set is available here from 30th October so pre ordered a set. There is also a 640 page accompanying hardcover book.

My late brother was in the US Navy, to avoid being sent to Vietnam as a Marine, yet for a bit, He was a Boat Captain in Vietnam.

I thought the DVR had taped the new Star Trek, but alas apparently 60 Minutes ran over time, and the show got missed. :~(
