Yeah, Boston and Providence both have ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox affiliates. On cable, I think most of the state gets the Boston channels, and Cape Cod and the Southcoast get the Providence channels as well.

I think the problem is that the published schedules don't get updated fast enough for something like that. I don't really understand why TIVO (and I assume other DVRs) get updates on a fixed schedule, as if it has to dial out on a modem to get them like in the old days. A station should be able to push out schedule changes as soon as they are made, and DVRs should just pick up the updates in real time. That way stuff like sporting events wouldn't screw up all your recordings, too.
