My Cable Is Out

It's a cruel, cruel thing when the cable is out during finale season.
What's worse? The fact that Time Warner tells me this is a "Planned Outage".
So let me get this straight: They PLANNED to take away my cable the night that Irina Derevko returns to Alias, and then PLANNED to keep it out the night that Kendra gets hired and Tana is sent back to sell Mary Kay to Red Staters?
Nice work guys. While you're at it, the finale of Desperate Housewives is on next Sunday. If you could let me know your plans, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
