Either the husband is so captured by a NFL game that leads the wife to bother him about work around the house, or the wife is so infatuated with Brad Pitt that she grapples with the husband for the remote. These are but a few of the cases when television causes trouble for the marriage, and when fact proves stranger than fiction.

DISH Network Satellite System - What You Should Know
DISH Network Satellite System
A DISH Network satellite system consists of two main components - a satellite TV dish to capture the satellite signal, and a satellite TV receiver to decode and transmit that signal to your television.
Satellite Dish
A satellite dish picks up the broadcast signal sent out from a satellite orbiting thousands of miles above the earth.
Satellite dishes are curved, like the lens in a magnifying glass, in order to concentrate the satellite signal to a point where it is captured by a feed horn mounted in front of the dish. The feed horn sends the signal to the satellite TV receiver where it's decoded and sent to a TV set.
Satellite dishes are usually mounted outside a home on the roof or wall, but can also be placed inside on a movable stand.
Satellite Receiver
A satellite TV receiver is the box that sits next to your TV...
