Comcast, WKRN, and a lost episode of 'Lost'

It's been awhile since I had a good 'ole fashion pet peeve. So here it goes.

Comcast is a joke and there is nothing "comcastic" about it. I think they know it and we all know it, but I wish WKRN, the ABC affiliate in Nashville, knew it. Here's my dilemma.

When Comcast installed my cable, they told me that channel 2 might be a little a fuzzy. It had to do with something about a tower. I don't know. Anyway, the picture wasn't perfect, but it wasn't awful either. We've lived with it this way for over 2 years now but like I say, it's not a big deal. Until...

Last night we turn on the tv to catch Lost. All the channels were working great accept for channel 2. We were watching the ant races. You could not see a picture and you could faintly hear the audio. We tried watching the HD channel on the television through the antenna, but it was so digitally disrupted that we could only hear every other word while watching a serious of digital boxes freeze and unfreeze across the screen.

I still don't know who was at fault but by my suspicion is that it was Comcast. We missed Lost, but I can watch it online. So, Comcast if you are reading this....oh never mind, we all know you don't really care.
