Well back then we didn't have as much to do to kill time, so I don't think there were that many muck ups.
But it was annoying when you'd stop recording during ads, and then the show would come back on (without warning), and there would be this frantic rush to get it recording again…
We always used to program our VCR to record a certain channel at a certain time, meaning we didn't have to worry about hitting start/stop recording when there were adverts. But then again, we usually only recorded things for when we were going to be away from the house; so we wouldn't usually have been there to press start/stop recording. Most of the time, this worked fine, to my recollection, there was only one time where the machine recorded the wrong thing…. (I think we ended up with 45 minutes of "Star Wars" instead of an episode of "Doctor Who" or something 
).
Sure we still had a lot of problems with setup, but for the most part, we could get it working well enough to have whatever we wanted to see recorded properly…
I used to watch this kids drama show called 'Zoop'. But on wednesdays I had to got to 'Judo' so had to record that stuff. I can't count the many times it went wrong. 
We just recorded stuff so we could watch them again at some point in the future. Those were back in the dark days when there were just 3 channels we could watch, and most of the time they would show rubbish. That was a very long time ago for me… maybe 12 or 13 years ago?
How I can remember this stuff is a mystery I will never solve.
Cartoon Network among them?

Heh, CN was banned at my house back then Now I wanna tell my parents 'thank you'.
No, but sometimes they would play Nickelodeon shows on a few of the channels.
Did you watch Spongebob… please tell me you did…
That's totally RaC movie.
Did you watch Spongebob… please tell me you did…
Haven't we all?
That's totally RaC movie.
LOL
Yea, where is that movie? Weren't we going to get a new trailer a while ago?
Oh and by the way. Of course I watched Spongebob! But we didn't always watch Spongbob, there were shows before then too… like Angry Beavers, Ren and Stimpy and Kim Possible (Which is Disney, so we obviously watched that too.)
Well, they SURE aren't canceling the movie, are they?
Highly unlikely. Because they are also making a Sly movie. If they were going to announce both a R&C and Sly movie, you'd think they could follow up on it. If one was to be cancelled, lets face it, it wouldn't be Ratchet & Clank…
I don't see them cancel it just because we haven't seen a new trailer yet. Though Heavenly Sword is coming closer and closer!
