INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE HUMAN RACE IN THE EVENT OF ALIEN ATTACK:
1. Place head firmly between legs.
2. Kiss your ass goodbye.
Let's face it, any race that has FTL capabilities is so way out of our league, we won't even be ants to them, but more like algae...
You could always just splash them with water like in Signs.
Don't worry, I watch all kinds of shows, not just sci fi, and I zap ads on em all. So I'm not killing sci fi more than other genres.
Also, as far as I can tell, my viewing still isn't counted for spit. Never had a Nielsens box, probably never will get one. Comcast DVR isn't the same thing as TiVO (which I think is going out of business? what's up with them anyway?)
I've been doing it for years, but via VCR, and I know there's no way for that to be tracked. I'd be doing it still but the gubmint frakked it all up with this digital TV booshwah!
I have to pay four bucks a month for the DVR, so there's no way I'm watching ads, too. Comcast is getting enough of my money as it is.
If Comcast took away your fast forward, can you get a dish service instead? If it were me, I'd probably dump cable altogether and get everything thru Netflix. I'm patient, I can wait. You're paying one way or the other, but with Netflix, there's no possibility of ads, so why bother with cable.
I've seen stories about how people are actually pulling the plug on cable more nowadays. So Comcast et al better be careful they don't lose their customers by pissing them off.

They're freaking expensive compared to what companies are offering in their packages now.
I am talking of conan O'brain not conan the movie.
I all so hope they do come out with a falling skies poster. that would be cool.
Yeah, the other guy would be conan O'no-brain.
Really? That sucks. At least they're only doing it for On Demand.
As is my cable company (Cox), I just found out.
Makes me glad I'm cutting the cord and getting rid of cable after L&O:LA and CI are over.

Hah! I don't even know what On Demand is. Is that when you want to see X show and ask for it to be sent immediately? I never do that. I just wait patiently for the stuff I've scheduled into the DVR, to show up in my queue. Half the time it's a surprise because I forgot I scheduled it.

On Demand is like the cable system putting a previously seen episode online. They would normally have only the most recent episodes available. On my system we don't get ABC, WB, or FOX but most of the major basic cable networks are on demand. In some cases like with TNT an episode doesn't go up until the next episode has shown. CBS and NBC tend to have their shows on the next day except for a while with Harry's Law.
