Hmm, I saw one of those – #10 – only because it was shown on The Daily Show, I believe. Maybe The Colbert Report.
This looks like a fluff survey done as a publicity stunt to get TiVo’s name in the press during the holiday shopping season.

but I’m all for TiVo getting into the press. TIVO IS MY BEST FRIEND, I LOVE TIVO:)

4 Sara and Grissom get together on “CSI”
Good grief, that was a top 10 moment? It made me want to smack the writer. Just goes to show how out of step I am with most other viewers.

LOL… still giggling over that Faith Hill comment! Anywhoo… I saw (TiVo’d) #4, #8, and #9.
All these things are things I’d heard about from friends/radio/news. I would’ve TiVo’d a few of them had I had the gift of foresight to know what I’d be missing (#5, #7)… and others I would’ve TiVo’d had I known what a big deal they’d become (Kirstie Alley, Mel…). So I don’t think this was necessarily sensationalized.
I would’ve added a few other things to the list, however. From my OWN perspective I would’ve thrown the finale of The Biggest Loser up there – seeing Erik walk out having lost over 200 lbs in 8 months was absolutely amazing. I’m still shocked over it.
But yeah… I’d believe this list. Any news about TiVo works for me! I heard Howard Stern list “what Stars are TiVo’ing” the other day and thought that was cool. When they talk about time-shifting (watching shows after they air), they ALWAYS say “TiVo’d” as a general catch-all for all DVR stuff. Gotta love it.
Viva la TiVo!
