This Emmy-award winning parody of over-the-top soap operas was named by TIME Magazine as one of the 100 greatest TV shows of all time. Secrets abound in the sleepy town of Dunn's River, Connecticut as the wealthy Tate family and the blue-collar Campbell family wrestle with secret affairs, murder plots, alien abductions, religious cults, demonic possessions and sassy ventriloquist dummies. 8 discs include every episode from all four seasons, as well as the Season 1 pilot and interviews with the show's creators Susan Harris, Paul Junger Witt and Tony Thomas.

It's bad When Chat Gives You Bad Info,

Posted by: Vici
Verified Purchase:Yes
On 'Chat', I was told (and I have the record) that CC, Closed Captions were available on the 8 DVDs. My wife and I need CC since we are in our 90s and our hearing is diminished. CC was available only on disk 1.

Terrible instruction sheet. Tiny print totally disordered. No logic in the instructions - either on paper or the screen. Will return this today.

Not all ports work. Call it a 2-port. Not sure why the problem. Could be my fault, but don't think so.

Excellent in every way - SO FAR. Epson has been excellent for many years (I have an old but very good WorkForce 500), except for ink use, I am hoping that this printer will solve this last problem.

Plenty Fast

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had the Geek Squad install this, as they did previously with another of my computers. It became the C drive which was replaced. The computer start up and running speed increased greatly. Well worth the investment. The Squad technician did a very good job. Only problem was getting through on the phone to anybody in BB.

Good Buy
on October 18, 2019
Posted by: Vici
Verified Purchase:Yes
Work fairly well. Biggest gripe is the brochure. You need a microscope to read it. Unnecessarily poor. Also, the available PDF manual is the wrong one. Possibly for an older model. However, the unit performs it's designed tasks if you can figure out how to use it without a decent manual. I have many Chinese friends who speak English perfectly. Why can't the Chinese in China get someone like my Chinese friends to put together a decent manual?

Very nice. Only fault is uneven toasting on one side. However, at this price, it is a very good purchase - unless you are very picky about 'even' toasting on both sides of the bread.

Small & Powerfull
on May 3, 2019
Posted by: Vici
from Laguna Woods, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
The screen is small because the unit is meant to be very portable.
The screen is still very adequate. The controls are good and the storage, 32 Gb, great. I keep classical, popular (big band music - i.e. real music), dance playlists for ballroom dancing including the greats from Goodman, Miller, James, and loads of others ready to play. Works well with my desktop to load and arrange the music. You can keep it charging while you're playing music for endless hours.

Great for using your MP3 player instead of a CD drive. It keeps your MP3 player battery charged completely so you can play your music continuously for many hours.

Print smudge-free text and rich, vibrant images with this Epson EcoTank all-in-one color printer. Wi-Fi Direct connectivity lets you print remotely without a router, and voice-activated printing capabilities let you schedule jobs using voice commands. This Epson EcoTank all-in-one color printer produces gorgeous photos and graphics with a maximum resolution of 5760 x 1440 dpi.Prints up to 10 ISO ppm* in black, up to 5 ISO ppm* in color.
 

With the Workforce 500 and Windows 7, it is simple to require the printer to print black only. This is useful if a color cartridge is running low on ink and a new cartridge is not available. Can this be done as well with the Eco printers?

My principle complaint against my Workforce 500 is that it will not print any color if any other color is depleted -e.g. It will not print black if magenta is depleted even though my black ink is full. What will this EcoTank do? Why is there no choice?

If I record an over the air tv show with this, can I then play back the show to the tv after it is recorded, or do I need to remove the usb drive and only play it back on a computer?

Yes. You can also remove the flash drive and use it to directly input to the TV, if the TV has a USB input, as some do.

I was wondering if this will work with cable tv and tune in the digital cable channels for a analog tuner tv ?

No. It's only for Over the Air channels. i.e. You need a TV antenna.

View digital content on your analog television with this Insignia digital-to-analog converter box. The electronic program guide helps you find favorite shows, and the converter box pairs with almost every type of antenna. Use this Insignia digital-to-analog converter box to show HDMI content on digital displays that don't have a TV tuner or coax input.
 

We have Spectrum Cable television as our TV provider, and lease a cable\DVR box from them. Will your digital converter boxes allow reception and decoding of their digital cable channels?

I was told by the sales rep that this converter would work with cable as well as an antenna input. IT DOES NOT. It clearly states on the box and internal instruction material that this unit works ONLY with an ANTENNA input. It's quite a bit of work to hook this unit up. Now I have to take it down and return it. No fun there. Since my cable provider switched from analog to digital more than a year ago, I have judiciously been looking for such a converter for a CABLE INPUT since I have two excellent Pioneer DVRs with analog tuners. Apparently there is a signal in the over the air signal, or perhaps the cable signal, that will distinguish the inputs. Why? I have no idea. It stinks, but they do it.
