Default America's Test Kitchen on Roku


This past Friday I was watching "Cord Cutters" on YouTube and Philip Palermo said
"America's Test Kitchen" is now on the Roku channel (452). I tuned in Sunday night
and mercy, the episodes were from perhaps 2000. Of course, the giveaway was how
young everyone was.

Julia Collin Davison was on there but she was known as just Julia Collin as she married
in 2003. Bridgett Lancaster was there, too. Everybody was slim and trim and Adam Reid's
hair had not a speck of gray in it. Also, the test kitchen had a distinct 1970's look to it.
The next episode had an updated look but it's not the kitchen we're used to seeing used
now.

If you stream and have Roku, it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane for this show.
Unfortunately, they don't show any ending credits to determine when it was filmed as they
go directly to the next episode.

You could read the news online rather than watching it on TV.

They have TV's at all the County Jails and in the prisons
nationwide,m just not in holding cells and such.

They're usually tuned to the 24-Hour Jerry Springer Channel or
Univision. Some prisons allow you to have your own TV's in the
cell, but that's usually Level 3+ prisons and you're limited to OTA
channels (yeah, you don't have digital cable and streaming smart
TV's). And many of the prison are out in Podunk (not just in
Texas), so reception kinda sucks.

The communal TV's are usually hooked up to some central antenna amp
and generally get better OTA reception, but still no cable TV - You
can't have 50-200 inmates per TV and 200+ channels to choose from.
Yeah, uh, no.
