Knowing how my TV crops things, I can see the entire clock. :blink: :wacko:

I'm pretty sure I bought my TV early on in 2005. It's acting a lot older than it is though. The LDL was always cut off in my camera clips, and a purple/green spot of color runs up the left side of the TV when I have a fan running above it.

I love the new clock, the 4 time zone rotation does not bother me one bit :)

I bet the Time zone rotation would have been interesting to see when the time changed. :P

The clock isn't cropped at all on my TV, but the difference probably not only depends on the TV itself, but how the cable company relies on the signal.

Not sure why we need all time zones shown. Personally, I think it's an error, so we'll  just have to wait and see. But the ad's are definitely coming, just wait.

Because folks on the West Coast don't want to know East Coast time? :P If TWC just added it to the ldl that would be fine.

I don't get how many people have overscan issues with their HDTVs. Not just here either. I personally can't stand stretching a 4:3 image to 16:9. Bleh!!

Absolutely agree.  Stretch looks really messed up.

Well, the stretched out picture doesn't really bother me. It looks GREAT on my living room TV.

I still think each location's IS should take care of the time, while leaving the clock on the national content for those viewers that don't have any form of a local STAR computer.  I guess I can live with Pacific Time if I haaaaaaaaaaaave to!   :P  lol
