Popsicles and trips to the beach. A chance to swing leisurely in a hammock, taking in the breeze and sunlight. Plenty of fans and air conditioning going full blast during the hottest days.
There are certainly tons of reasons to fall in love with the summer months, but for those who are trying to beat the heat or escape from the sweltering highs, it might make sense to spend the hours when escaping to the beach or the coast aren't possible instead in front of a television set. After all, not everyone can go surfing every weekend, but finding a way to watch "Endless Summer" in HDTV is always plausible. And for those trying to keep costs low in terms of summer movie blockbusters, checking out the action at home, rather than on the silver screen, has never looked better.
No matter what one is looking for in entertainment, here are five ways to get the absolute best satellite tv experience, whether it's raining or a truly hot one outside!
#1 - Start watching "True Blood." When the weather heats up, so do the vampires on HBO's breakout hit, which is one signal for millions of people that summer is officially here. Get swept up in the drama of the world's campiest quality vampire series, and see what the fuss is about this summer.
#2 - Check out at least one road trip movie and one summer vacation flick. These are the cornerstones of American entertainment, and whether it ends up being "Family Vacation" from National Lampoon or "Jaws" one of the countless times it's airing on satellite tv, it's part of a well-balanced summer entertainment schedule.
#3 - Use HDTV to check out films at home, rather than in the theater. It's less expensive, plenty of the same things end up overlapping, and chances are the pick that would drag the whole family to the theater is going to end up on television in mere weeks, anyway, since it's being released during the summer and is likely not that fabulous in the first place!
#4 - Get accurate information about weather wherever vacation plans are taking the family. There's nothing more disappointing than being packed for a three-day weekend, only to find out that all gear and clothing items are wrong for the precipitation or temperatures. Avoid that problem by getting up-to-the-minute information from one of the countless reliable weather sources available on satellite tv. It means never being incorrectly packed again.
#5 - Check out nature documentaries when it's too hot out. Whether it's learning what they eat in the middle of an Iceland blizzard or finding out how great the Northern Lights look as they dance above the icy Norwegian forest, there are plenty of shows out there, many of them in HDTV, that will lend a more cooling feeling to the true dog days of summer. Try it out--you might be surprised at how much it tricks the brain into feeling a bit more comfortable with the weather.
