Hi, staffs lad. Personally, I find more than enough to watch. You mention The Walking Dead, but that's already been on Fox, so I wonder if you are making the best use of your TIVO for recordings.

It makes sense to trawl through a TV magazine each week (I don't use the EPG for this purpose as it takes too long), and pick out the programmes that you are interested in. They do build up very quickly if you record everything of interest to you, but the middle of summertime isn't the best time to do this as there is a lot of junk on at this time of year.

You have to do your recordings every week, but you will be surprised how quickly they build up. Look at all the channels you have available to you, not just the main terrestrials.

I am still watching material that I recorded last autumn, and this will easily sustain me through the sterile summer months. Otherwise, I think you are paying for a facility that you are not using to its best advantage.
