Satellite TV Takes You All Over the World
The first stop on your virtual trip should be the Travel Channel. This classic station has been around the longest. Today, Travel Channel offers a wide variety of programming, from Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations to the World Poker Tour. All of these shows are designed to transport you across the world, and each has a different take on just what that journey entails.
The National Geographic Channel should be the next destination on your tour of satellite TV’s travel offerings. Here you’ll find a bit more of a historical bent to varied spots across the globe. If you’ve ever browsed through the magazine, you have an idea of what to expect. Even the glossy pages of the magazine can’t match the unreal brilliance of high definition, however, and you’re likely to be blown away. From the ancient pyramids to today’s hottest metropolises, National Geographic transports you everywhere you want to go.
Finally, if space tourism is more your bag,the NASA channel flings you into the great unknown. The images and video shown on this channel are truly mind-blowing. Now think about this: satellite TV is actually beamed straight back at you from space. Technology’s a wonderful thing, and here’s your chance to get involved, with real-time coverage of all of NASA’s high-flying missions.
Satellite television is the perfect way to see the world without a passport. Check out all of DIRECTV’s offerings to expand your horizons.

Enjoy This Summer’s Best Concerts with DIRECTV
There are tons of advantages to watching concerts on satellite TV. For one thing, it’s much cheaper. A prime ticket to Madonna would cover months of your subscription, and that’s not counting drinks and parking.

Why not invest some of that cash into a great new stereo system? Have your friends over for the next Coldplay show and impress them with all that your DIRECTV package includes.
Most of the action happens on the 101 Network, available only on DIRECTV. A schedule of available concerts is available at the touch of a button, so you can plan out your next few weeks of action ahead of time. We’ll save you the trip, this time around: No Doubt is back in town, along with Third Eye Blind and Ben Harper. That’s just a sampling, of course; check out the 101 Network to find your particular cup of tea.
This summer, check out all of those shows you’ve had to miss in the past. With satellite TV by DIRECTV, it’s never been easier to watch your favorite musicians tear up the stage.

Your DVR Has More Tricks Than You Imagine
When satellite TV customers and others first got their hands on DVR, it was amazing enough just to be able to record so many hours of programming, and keep it stored away to be enjoyed whenever they wanted. Then, the shock of the privilege of being able to fast-forward through commercials really blew a lot of people away; nothing could be better than that, right? Then they discovered that any show they watched, programmed to record or not, could be paused and rewound. Then came the HD DVRs, with the inherent superiority in quality that they imply. Then, people learned that they could record two separate programs at once...a true revelation. But, is that the end of the long line of benefits that DVRs have for today's demanding customers?
No, it is not: there is one more excellent benefit to the DVR that really rounds out the motto of “full control” over your TV-watching practices. The fact that you are able to not only schedule your recordings with your remote from the sofa, but you can also do so from anywhere with computer or phone access! That's right, you can program your recordings on your DVR by simply logging in to your satellite TV account, something that can be done over the phone or over the internet, and looking at the program guide, selecting whatever new additions to your lineup you should choose. When you get home, they will be there in your playlist just like the ones you chose with your remote, no difference whatsoever.
Since the average person tends to remember things at the inopportune moment—in this case, when they are not at home, which is most of the day for working people—this feature to the DVR is a complete lifesaver. No more must you go through the rest of the day annoyed that you remembered there was that important show (whatever it may be) but won't be able to watch it: with just a couple of clicks of the mouse, or a few buttons on the phone, your problem will be resolved, and your power over your TV-watching experience will be fully yours like never before.
So, if you are still suffering through the boredom of “regular” TV—that is to say, TV unenhanced by all these tremendous benefits—then suffer no more, and get yourself a DVR.
DIRECTV offers a package which includes DVR, called DIRECTV Plus DVR. Simply put, DIRECTV Plus DVR is an all-in-one receiver that allows you to combine DIRECTV's amazing digital-quality programming with Digital Video Recording. You will thank yourself for that decision for as long as you sit down in front of the television which for most people is just about every day!

Second Season Of “In Plain Sight” Off To A Strong Start
If you haven’t had a chance to check out USA Network’s most recent hit “In Plain Sight” you could be missing out on one of the most original American television series dramas in a long while.
After “In Plain Sight” was plagued with a later than normal series start last year due to the WGA strike, the series has only received more and more added viewers with each episode. The pilot episode, which aired on June 1st, 2008, pulled in over five and a half million viewers, placing it at the top of USA Network’s DirecTV highest rated television series since the debut of its other great series “Psych” in 2006.
This drama that takes place in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is all about the lives of those FBI agents who work for the Federal Witness Protection Program, and the people who’s identities they are sworn to protect. The main character Mary Shannon (aptly played by Mary McCormack) is a Deputy United States Marshall with an extremely hectic personal life, a disdain for traditional authority, and a job that is obviously full of stress as she does what she can to ensure the safety and protection of individuals in the witness protection program. She is the perfect example of the flawed hero.
Her partner Marshall Man (played by Fred Weller) is a useless trivia aficionado and comes from a family of law enforcement and is the balancing force in Mary’s life. As the series has moved forward Marshall and Mary have developed one of the most dynamic friendships television has seen in awhile.
Along with a handful of other cast members, “In Plain Sight” is a fully robust experience for DirecTV subscribers. This series is sure to be a great staple for the USA Network’s lineup, and this season has only solidified that claim with already stellar viewership numbers for season two’s debut.
