The VCR isn't flashing 12:00 am? What sort of witchcraft is this?

[–] TheDubz87 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They have mastered the forgotten art of programming the VCR

Ye, and the Lord sayeth "Thou shalt leave the television on channel three, my child. Only then may the VCR fulfil its devine destiny". And so it was. Amen.

The TV/VCR combo I don't know, the Sony VCR made in 2000 I believe, and the VHS rewinder's from 1996.

[–] Pocketyeti 3 points 2 years ago

For recording VHS/copying, or at least 25 years ago it was.
