Mel, sorry you'll be losing your tradition with your son. I'm a DVR everything person these days myself, so I'll be happy not to have to worry about the delays and taping for 2 hours after the scheduled air time!! The only things I watch love anymore are usually season finales because of high spoiler potential. Even if we are home, we let shows build up on the DVR for 15-20 mins to be able to skip commercials. Spoiled I guess!
