As always, NOVA has lots of good info and if you are looking for something to watch that you might just find very entertaining, then Intelligent Design on Trial is something you should check out.

Show to Watch: The Elegant Universe.

If you are looking for a very interesting and amazing show to watch on the internet, then the PBS show “The Elegant Universe” is a must see. This is actually more than just an hour show, but more of a three hour mini-series. The Elegant Universe is all about the latest theories on Physics. Wow, talk about a mind bender! This show simply and concisely explains the most way-out, cutting edge theories in a easy to digest format. This show will keep you riveted from start to end.

How does it look on the TV? PBS, while I applaud you for putting the whole series on the internet, I was a bit disappointed that I could only watch it on the teeny-tiny video screen viewer. Luckily, I have Windows XP “Media Edition” installed on the ol Dell and the Media Edition handles that problem well. What does it do? Somehow it automatically makes the video full screen on the TV. The video stays small on the computer screen, but on the regular TV it is all the way big.

So, next time you are looking for something to watch that will blow your mind, head on over to PBS Nova and watch “The Elegant Universe”. You will not be disappointed!

Show to watch: Frontline – Full Episodes.

One of my goals of this blog is to share with you some places to find shows to watch on the internet. Did you know that PBS Frontline posts their full episodes on their site? Yes, it is true. PBS has tons and tons of shows, but it is hard to figure out which ones are available as full episodes. I am still trying to find them all, as the list is very long.

I was not that familiar with Frontline before I started looking for internet TV shows. Now that I have found Frontline, I think it is a very well done show. At least the episodes I have watched that seem to be of interest to me. There are quite a few Frontline episodes that don’t seem to be of much interest, but I might watch them anyway at some point in the future. You know, just because the show is so well done.

What episodes can I recommend? One of the most interesting and enjoyable shows I have seen lately, is The Merchants of Cool. You can view the full episode here. Another episode I found very interesting was the one about the Mormons. Very in depth and lots of amazing facts. Watch the full episode here.

You can't go wrong with either of those episodes, so if you are looking for something to watch, they just might fit the bill.

What I watched 9-21-07

Since it is the weekend, I did not take the bus, so I did not watch anything on my trusty Sansa. That Sansa is pretty cool. It comes with software that translates most kinds of video so you can watch it on the Sansa. Of course, the ipod has no such translation software, so you are at the mercy of finding ipod compatible M4V and MP4 videos.

Last night we watched some Netflix, Watch Now. We watched "A Program About Unusual Buildings & Other Roadside Stuff". It was nice and light hearted, just what the doctor ordered! Since we have been watching "Watch Now", we have not been watching as many Netflix DVDs. This means that Netflix does not have to pay for our postage, and that makes them happy!
