Watch This, For a good mystery, Take a little trip!

by ifif1938 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, May 02 '01
Pros: programming keeps getting better...
Cons: sometimes can be inconsistent as to their schedules
I've always loved a good mystery, the ones that keep you guessing up until the end, the classic,"who done it" kind of mysteries. Whether it be a detective, a private eye or sometimes an amateur sleuth, if the story keeps you guessing , then to me it's...

Help me! I'm only 25 years old and am officially a boring adult. =) A&E is my favorite television channel. It's too late for me to turn back now, I'm hooked on their quality, interesting, educational and entertaining programming.

Academic & Entertaining

by caconti Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 05 '00
Pros: High Quality Original Programming and Fantastic Reruns
Cons: No Pythons...
For my money, A&E is the single best cable network out there. How can I make such a sweeping judgement? Their blend of high-quality original series, BBC and classic film pickups, and their reruns of popularly syndicated programs provide quality...

A great argument for cable

by mellkinwa , Jan 19 '01
Pros: Great Original shows, Rerun good shows
Cons: Repeats the same shows just a little to much
When A & E first came on the cable I thought it was an "old" person channel. My grandparents often were seen watching it. Well over the years it has slowly become one of the channels I watch the most.

A&E offers great original shows...

A&E = Legal Excitement!

by RCarte2000 , Jan 27 '01
Pros: Really interesting shows.
Cons: Biographies are of the weirdest people!
I became a fan of A&E a couple of years back when they started playing some of my favorite shows. Before that, I never payed much attention to their programming, but now I find it interesting.

I love legal shows. Anything to do with true...

A&E CABLE ALTERNATIVE

by Beawriter , Jan 28 '01
Pros: REPEAT PROGRAMS OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS
Cons: Some programs are boring
If it wasn't for A&E I'd be renting movies to watch during the day when the commercial stations give way to boring soap operas.

Instead, while I'm working on the computer, I can be entertained with old favorites such as Law and Order,and...

Check your head, don't leave it on empty.

by ltrain Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 18 '00
Pros: Filled with well researched details, on a thoughtful level
Cons: Daytime lineup feels a little recycled.
What does everybody want? Well, I don't know. What does everybody need? A&E! You may not have seen it yet, but when you do you'll understand why you should have started watching earlier. Tired of watching nothing but mindless garbage? Sick of...

Death Detectives - Is this Art or is it Entertainment?

by FunnyBufGirl , Oct 18 '00
Pros: fascinating information
Cons: might be a little "intense" for some people
Last night I caught a most fascinating documentary on A&E. "Death Detectives - Inside the LA Coroner's Office." I love forensic medicine, how interesting to learn how mysterious deaths are investigated, how the dead really do tell tales....

Does your youth license get revoked if A&E is on your short list of favorite TV networks? If so, consider me on Social Security!

Pros: great programming for all ages
Cons: some shows geared towards an older audience
I used to think that A&E was television for grandparents, that was before my boyfriend turned me on to the more interesting aspects of television programming, I cringe to think that I might still be watching Jerry Springer and all those other...

A & E: Early Daytime Lineup is a Winner

by habla , Jul 20 '00
Pros: Shows that are entertaining and stimulating. Particularly Early Afternoon
Cons: The Later Afternoon Shows are not as Entertaining
Oh, how I love the Summer!
One of the best reasons for my love of this season is that I get to spend a great deal of time at the home. I work a light schedule, Summer school, and developing curriculum, during this time, and it leaves me with a...

Pros: Highly interesting and informative
Cons: none at all
About 8 years ago, our local cable company advised us that they would be providing a new channel called A & E. I was a bit curious at first and decided to tune in to see what it could offer me. I never thought that it would become my favorite...
