Maybe the storm caused some damage at Comcast, but "20 megabits" in the Villages over cable has always been worse than the sub-5 megabit we used to get over the legacy phone lines from AT&T, out in the country, back in Texas.

The loss of CBS is a big deal. It's the last of the OTA networks to produce real programming. Primetime on NBC and ABC has become nothing but game shows and fake "reality" shows.
