TV...................?????????? I'm 15, and I've been evaluating different career paths for months. I found that most every career, like a lawyer, doctor, architect, engineer, are ok, but definitely not for me. Even worse is the cost of education towards one of these careers. Anyway, I'm a huge TV fan, from shows like House MD, Fringe, LOST and others. I ♥ JJ Abrams btw, he a big influence of mine. Anyway, I'm interested in tv series creation, like creating shows (fiction). What direction do I go? I'm not looking to be discouraged! e.g someone like David Shore

When did TV shows start showing previews of next weeks episodes? Just wanting to know when TV shows started showing clips of Next Weeks Episode at the end of Today's episode? What I mean is Next week on Criminal Minds people are missing who is it. Don't remember seeing this much if at all in the 1970's, 1980's, or most of the 1990's. Have TV shows always done this, or is just something they have recently started and if so what year did they start doing this? Is this to get you to not make other arrangements so you will watch the show next week?

How do i play a movie from my pc on a tv? I am trying to watch a movie on my tv that is stored on my pc. I do not have a DVD burner but I do have a CD burner. The movie has already been converted to DiVX but is still too large to fit on a CD-R. I have an S-Video output on my PC and an S-Video input on my TV. While setting up the movie I can see my desktop on the TV so I know it's working. Once I start the movie I can see the movie on my PC but not on my TV, but I can still see my desktop elements on the TV. It is my guess that the video is playing back at over 450 lines of resolution which my PC can display with no problem but my TV can't. How do I drop the resolution of the video down to 450 lines to show on my TV?
How to program a tv remote without the tv being on? My television is an older model Emerson and the power button on the tv itself doesn't work anymore. I lost the remote and I'm trying to program a new remote with the television off. We also don't know the code for the tv. What should I do?
What is the best TV resolution for different HD signals? Assume you have a 1080i HD signal source (e.g. XBox 360). Given the specs below, which TV do you think the end result picture would look better on, assuming all other specs are nearly identical? 1. 1080i TV, but with 1024x1080 max resolution 2. 720p TV, but with 1366x768 max resolution 720p HD signal translates into 1280x720 and 1080i (or p) translates into 1920x1080 resolution, so neither of the above examples match up perfectly. I know that the TV compensates for the differences between its native resolution and the HD resolution, but I'm not sure what would be better. I wish more manufacturers matched their resolutions with HD resolutions better. Also, I've read that 720p and 1080i are very close in quality but I think that means a 720p signal on a 720p TV -vs- 1080i signal on a 1080i TV. So the question is, which of the following is better? 1. a 1080i source on a 720p TV OR 2. a 720p source on a 1080i TV Thanks for you insight!
How much more energy does a Plasma TV consumer compared to a LCD TV? How much more energy does a Plasma TV consumer compared to a LCD TV?

Do TV and film crews use a real grave when filming a burial scene in a cemetery? I was watching a burial scene on TV. Most of the shots were obviously filmed in a real cemetery somewhere. However, I noticed that the actual interment was shown at close angles, where the buildings around the real cemetery were not visible. It got me wondering if the idea of lowering a fake coffin into a grave was too distasteful and if that part of the scene might have been filmed somewhere else. There was also an aerial shot right over the grave, looking down into it, which would have required a camera on a boom, so I thought that would also be intrusive in a real graveyard.

Just that the majority of men's reactions on TV is sexist towards lesbians. It's precisely this discrimination which I'm against and I don't understand why there's so much of it on TV.
