Help wanted: Discovery Channel video

Post by Wesley »

Does anyone have cable and a VCR and would be willing to tape for me (this week if at all possible) at LEAST 1 (2 or 3 would be better) episodes of The Deadliest Catch and Cash Cab and the Discovery Channel?

I'll buy you a six pack of Lone Star.

Please let me know soon. Thanks!

I know not of this "tape" thing. But I can DVR it.

A six-pack of Lone Star?

I'll gladly set my DVR for you too, but I would prefer something of a little bit higher quality than Lone Star... such as horse urine.

Can I borrow the DVR or can if be burned out to a tape or disc?
I don't know much about them, but I need to be able to watch the episodes over and over as needed at my leisure.

My DVR has a "dub to VHS" function on it (which I've never used). I also hear it's not tough to export the file to an external digital file or something like that.

I don't have any blank VHS tapes, though.

I'll set the machine today. We'll figure out the beer and VHS tape-transfer later.

Discovery Channel's website says that Season 2 of Deadliest Catch has ended. Re-airings begin on Saturday. I'll set the DVR for then.

Cash Cab airs a couple times per day. I can hold on to four episodes with no problem.
