ABC and Cablevision had better resolve their differences before Sunday, or else I’m not gonna be able to watch the Oscars (because ABC will pull their signal from Cablevision). And then I’m gonna be really mad.
Holy crap, Cablevision is annoying me too. That stupid alert channel they turn on to whine at you every time you turn on the TV just has me looking into the pricing to get an HD antenna and ditch cable altogether.
I'm getting pissed at ABC suggesting that we all just switch providers, like to Dish or Verizon. Because there's absolutely no chance that ABC will try to extort those companies over the retransmission of their signal.
I may have to run to Radio Shack tomorrow and pick up an HD antenna (assuming that they'll have any left if other Cablevision customers have the same idea). And then I'll send the bill for it to Cablevision.

Going with the default entries for the other rows is poor form.

I didn't want to distract from the point.

Any chance you can find a livestream on the intertubes? If so, bleep the cable channels. ;)

Unless ABC.com is going to stream it -- and there's no indication that they are -- there won't be a stream.
