burgesst Posted July 10, 2016 #176 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I knew several people would post this. I don't cruise for tv either but it would still be nice to have something good to watch in the evenings while we are just relaxing. And everyone cruises for different things. I don't cruise to go somewhere and sit by a pool or a beach since I can do that when at home. But many others do. If someone goes on a cruise and wants to watch tv then good for them. Their vacation their choice. Well said BeachChik.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tip Posted July 10, 2016 #177 Share Posted July 10, 2016 ... I wish that they would have a daily newspaper as they had years ago. Yes! Yes! Yes! I too miss The New York Times via fax. I would read it out on my balcony or when me darling wife was visiting the shops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tip Posted July 10, 2016 #178 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I want to be able to turn on Fox News then go outside and Liston to the news. If something interest me I can go watch if not just set and look over the ocean. But then the ship would be listing to the starboard side!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DkswartzFamily Posted July 10, 2016 #179 Share Posted July 10, 2016 We cruise every Christmas. A channel featuring a fireplace accompanied by holiday music would be appreciated. We typically cruise in GS and have access to a DVD player, so we bring our own. I think it would be a nice touch for other families on board. Sent from my iPhone using Forums They may do something with the Christmas music this year- theyre hitting the holiday spirit hard according to the advertisements : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrierjohn Posted July 7, 2017 #180 Share Posted July 7, 2017 We only want good news and sports channels, and when a ship is sailing from the UK it would be nice to have UK news and sport, just like they do on Celebrity. We appreciate that Navigator and Indy are US ships and also need to cater for Nth American guests, but Sky News and Sky Sports news and Sport24 would be much appreciated.

Havingfun2010 Posted July 7, 2017 #183 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I only thought the TV was for looking at your daily bill, and for getting any port info. Didn't know they actually had channels to watch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biker19 Posted July 7, 2017 #185 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Surely that's why CC gave us the search facility.:halo: Yes, and I for one appreciate folks using existing threads instead of starting new ones (there are very times something has not already been discussed in some thread), but many posters don't realize some of the threads are old and the info possibly stale.

StormySeas Posted October 6, 2017 #189 Share Posted October 6, 2017 we had a DVD player in our balcony room on our HAL cruises. we enjoyed putting in a TV series that we enjoy while we nap or get ready for the evening. we brought: Friends, Will & Grace and Northern Exposure. (blast from the past!) if we can't get better TV, allowing us to play what we enjoy from home would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaGuy44 Posted October 6, 2017 #191 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Doesn't matter to me as don't go on cruises to watch TV. Have to have this in every single thread that mentions a TV. Like clockwork. :rolleyes: Of course you don't go on a cruise to watch TV. Neither does anyone else. It's certainly not a deal breaker but a good selection would definitely be nice.

dreadpirate3 Posted October 6, 2017 #193 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I suppose I'll bring DVDs to watch on my laptop. I will report channel availability on Freedom in December. I recall from our Majesty sailing last December that we watched Terminator and the A-Team the few times we had the TV on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not know what he said ,its played in 5 languages no english :o I assume you are trying to be funny but as I have no idea who Howard W is ...it falls flat. Surely someone on a ship could simply have say “the channels currently on X ship are A, B, C...” and the question would be answered. But perhaps you want a new thread started instead.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Big Bang Theory is a CBS TV show for 10 years, now you can Google it and learn something. When we were on Anthem I did notice the show was on 5 different channels in 5 languages, none of them English. I remember hearing French, Spanish, Italian and German.

skiiergirl Posted October 6, 2017 #198 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Lol...I cruise to get away from TV. We only turn it on if we are trying to watch a sport event....which usually isn't showing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigarboo Posted October 6, 2017 #199 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Are there no ports on the regular cabin tvs to connect your own dvd player? Looks like I'm going to have to bring my own entertainment on serenade. Bad TV, not enough seats in the cinema, lousy Internet. :') We love watching TV on cruises. That's how we relax...gonna be a long 11 night cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliles Posted October 6, 2017 #200 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I cruised in the days when there was NO TV in cabins. Didn't miss it either. Wow I've been cruising for 30+ years and have always had a TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
