TiVo

TiVo is cable TV where you can see what the characters are doing during breaks. It allows the user to fast forward and rewind programmes through the adverts, skipping them.

History

Marge became addicted to it. When Homer became principal at Springfield Elementary School, Marge told him off for getting Lisa to tape his shows and cut the commercials like TiVo to get extra credit.

Comic Book Guy also uses TiVo. One of the entries on his To-Do-List was to TiVo Smackdown, Alias, Battlestar Galactica, Lost and 30 Minute Meals.
