Hey guys,

Haven't posted here in a while but have been checking in from time to time. As the subject line said I might have a problem on my hands.

It appears that the basic cable package I have does not include the Sci-Fi channel. I thought that I did get it and that I could not view it because of interference from my cable modem. A cable tech mentioned I might need a data filter so the channels would come through on my T.V. However, now it appears that I don't get the Sci-Fi channel at all.

I'm going to be looking over my options but I will be moving soon so anything that requires an installation (digital cable or whatever) will have to wait till I'm in my new place. So I potentially will not be able to view the mini unless somebody in the Seattle/Kirkland area is hosting or knows of a viewing party. I think a viewing party would be more fun than watching it by myself anyway, so does anybody know of one?

Very much appreciate any help anybody can offer in this matter!
Can't wait!!!

Mitch

I'm going to record all five showings of the mini on VHS and have a friend record it on DVD, so if all else fails, I'd be willing to send you copy (DVD or VHS) if you will pay the S+H.

Thanks for the offer. I am still hopefull that I will be able to see it as it is aired but will let you know if I need to take advantage of your offer.

Thanks,
Mitch

I know. One more month and I would have been fine, but that means I would have had to pay this entire months bill myself.

the seattle meet-up group might be a good place to find a viewing party.

O.K. guys, this is my last desparate attempt to see if there are any viewing parties in the Seattle area. I don't get the Sci-Fi channel on my cable service so I need another place to watch it. I joined the Seattle Meetup group but there is nothing going on there.

Thanks,
Mitch

Just in case someone who can help hasn't seen this. It would be a shame to have to miss the mini.
