  1. "Dancing with the stars" and "Breaking Bad" are my favorite TV shows, and I hope they take home the award in all of their nominated categories. If you’re into watching and recording good quality prime time shows, and you hate choosing between which shows to record then I would recommend getting the Hopper. A Dish co-worker told me that the Hoppers PrimeTime Anytime feature automatically records all of my prime time shows that come on CBS, NBC, FOX and ABC everyday in HD! The Hopper can also record up to six shows at once. This allows me to record all the shows I won’t and I don’t have to choose which one is not going to be recorded.
