Yes, that is one reason why you might like it (especially if you do not know how to spell the name of the show you want to watch, although voice recognition can also get it wrong sometimes). However, I would ike numeric input. Key in some ID number of the show (after you can first figure out what that ID number is), and optionally the season number and episode number. If you omit the season number, it will list them; if you omit the episode number, it will list the episodes with descriptions; you might also search by the original broadcast date. Of course, that doesn't help if you do not know the ID number of the show, so text search (and voice, if you have a microphone and voice recognition software) is still useful too, and then you can learn what is the ID number. For text entry, I would like Hollerith chording (or a full keyboard if you happen to be using one, which some people do), but that won't work if the remote control doesn't support chording, so other methods may also be used. Category numbers (in various classification schemes) may also be helpful, if you do not even know the name of the show, or what show you want, perhaps.
