The following was recently announced over NEW-LIST... Date: Tue, 18 Oct 1994 15:52:28 CDT From: Michael Nist <[log in to unmask]> Subject: NEW: TV2NITE-L - Daily US TV Digest TV2NITE-L on [log in to unmask] Daily US TV Schedule TV2NITE-L is the mailing list which is used to distribute "tv2nite", a daily guide to America's favorite pastime -- watching prime time network and cable television. "tv2nite" has been designed for those of us who don't get complete cable listings in their newspaper (or don't get a newspaper), and/or don't want to shell out $40 a year for TV Guide. It's also for people who just like the idea of having their evening's entertainment choices pop up on their computer screen every day when they log in. Every morning, you'll get a new e-mail which summarizes the evening's best viewing, followed by a complete programming guide for all major broadcast and cable networks. This will include cable stations that many major newspapers don't have the space to list, such as Comedy Central, the Science Fiction channel, MTV, etc. We'll also let you know who's scheduled to appear on the evening's late night talk shows. Of course, even those of us blessed with 70 channels sometimes experience an evening where there isn't a thing on the tube we have any desire to see. So we'll also let you know when new videos are released, on the day they're due to hit the stores. Stick with us and you'll never have to socialize again. One cautionary note: we can't provide coverage for local stations -- at least not for the foreseeable future -- so you won't see listings for syndicated shows like the "Star Trek" series, or for your local PBS station. We are going to explore different means of sponsoring this list, however, and if we are able to swing it we'll offer local editions of the list for major TV markets.
