Since I got my TIVO (LOVE IT), I've been making copies of shows for many friends here that missed a show. Everything from Amazing Race, to Yes Dear with the Big Brother Bunch, to American Dreams and O.C. I thought I would start a thread so if anyone missed an episode of their favorite show, or your VCR screwed up, you wouldn't have to miss it forever. I TIVO almost all of the reality shows, and I keep them for about a week, just in case anyone needs it. One poster (I won't mention her name, because I didn't get permission to) has copies of Alias and Gilmore Girls if anyone needs it. I would be more than happy to make a copy for anyone that needs it, because I know I'd hate to miss a show I'm addicted to. It would help to know ahead of time, but not necessary. I just thought I'd put this out there, and if I can help anyone at any time, please e me (check my profile).

That is great to know Owl, and how thoughtful of you! I actually fell asleep at the end of Average Joe finale the other night and was beside myself. I was almost half tempted to come here and ask someone to send me a tape if they had one. Now I know who to turn to should anything like that happen again...THANKS!

Froggie, I was at a Humane Soc. meeting Monday night, so I watched it, actually FF through most of it, when I got home. It was set to delete tonight, so I caught it just in time. Do you want a copy?

No Owl, I don't need it. I got the highlights from reading about it here, and frankly after knowing she didn't pick Adam, I don't want to watch! Thanks for the offer though. I'm notorious for missing finales either by forgetting about them all together or by falling asleep, so I'm sure I'll be emailing you begging for a copy of something in the very near future, lol!!!

Theowl: It is so cool of you to do this. I hope people are chipping in for postage.

OK Froggie, just let me know!!

Scorpio, everyone has offered to pay, but I don't ask for anything. I just enjoy doing it. Some have paid anyway, and even one VERY generous poster has sent me GREAT items from the S.F. area!! I don't expect anything, just a short note to make sure the tape got there in one piece.

Hi THEOWL, I just sent you an email with a request. I put in the email that I would be happy to pay anything but after reading the above, if you rather, i can make a donation to the Humane Society in your name in exchange. Let me know...Thanks!

Thank you Scorpiomoom!! You are so sweet!!

Fabnsab, I got your e-mail, and there's one back atcha!! The tape will be in the mail this morning, and just in case anyone wants to know, the show was SOOOO much better watching it the second time!!!! I figured Burton was going, but knowing it and hearing the assinine remarks made by the two idiots was so sweet!! I laughed so hard!!

You're very welcome Fabnsab!! Thank you so much for the donation!! The "kids" will really appreciate it, too!! We are getting closer to getting concrete laid to start the more comfortable pens for them. It will include dog runs which will really be good for their state of minds, also.

Thanks Laura!! I won't be around here as often, and my e-mail address is in my profile. That would be the best way to get ahold of me if anyone needs anything.

Thank you Seattlemom!! You are so sweet!! With all of the Reality shows on now, I'm only going to keep the shows for 4 weeks, just in case anyone missed a show, and wants a copy. After all, I can ONLY save 80 hours!! I'm also TIVOing TV shows, like 24, O.C., and Starting Over. If anyone needs a copy, my e address is in my profile. That would be the best way to get ahold of me, but I do check in here often. I want to thank Fabasab again for the great suggestion of donations to the Humane Society that I volunteer at. We really appreciate it!! (and an early thank you to SeaMonkey, too!)

Can anyone PLEASE help me? I missed tonight's episode of THIRD WATCH. I know it hasn't aired yet on the WEST COAST and was just hoping that maybe a West Coaster could record it for me (or if anyone else might have recorded it by chance). I will gladly pay anyone for the tape and the postage! PRETTY PLEASE?

Curious, I live in central time zone, but I have DirecTV with west coast feed. I've never watched this before, but I'm recording it for you now. E me. OK?

Curious and Marmosquirm, your tapes went out yesterday morning, priority mail, so you should have them in time for the next show. Please let me know when you get it. OK?
Also, I talked to my Mom Sunday, and she missed the last Survivor show. I was Honored to be able to send her a tape of it, so she will get it and not miss a blink!! So if anyone misses a show they like, I'd be happy to help out, if I can. Marm, I hope you got the other shows you missed.

Dj- I found a site where you can download and watch the episodes. I'm pasting it here for you. Not quite the same quality as a regular video, but at least you can watch it! :-)
