There are lots of people who in spite of having the remote in their hands miss some parts of their favorite Satellite TV shows.

Doctors will term this as forgetfulness, but it may happen with individuals having sharp memories if there are lots of satellite channels on the TV. But if you are a subscriber of DISH Network, it doesn’t matter whether you are ‘forgetful’ or confused with so many numbers.

DISH Network, the leading Satellite TV service provider, simply doesn’t give you scope to miss anything. If you are struggling to recall the channel number airing your favorite show, simply switch to the DISH Network electronic programming guide.

The EPG provides with a database of programs that are currently on air and are scheduled to come on the channels Later. All details starting from channel name, channel number, name of the programs and time slots are available on the EPG. The guide also informs you about shows that have been aired earlier and those coming up in the next two or three days. This helps you planning the TV timing well in advance. By checking the time slot of a movie or a match, you can plan your day’s works so that you are free when it is shown. And even if it is impossible to be at present during the show, you can switch on the DISH HD DVR at the correct time to get it recorded for your deferred viewing.

Apart from these, the EPG provides you with a short summary for some programs that help you select which one to watch and which one to ignore. It helps particularly in case of movies. By clicking on the summary option you get a gist of the movie plot and also get to know the names of the actors. In case of programs on international channels like Latino or Arabic, the EPG helps you with informing whether a particular show that you are interested in will come with subtitles or not. This is magnificent, don’t you think?
