Heh, yup.  Spike TV started airing Voyager from ep1 to finale back
when I got the DVR.  And also started grabbing the Gargoyle's series
on Toon Disney.

Going back through and watching & skipping commercials was all kinds
of nice :).  Sometimes be busy all week and then take a few hours one
night to go through and watched what missed, etc.

Definately can't go back to regular TV anymore :(
