THE SMARTBAR
The SmartBar predicts shows to watch based on what your household usually watch at a
particular time or day. For example, if you normally watch the previous night's late-night talk
show the next morning, you'll see it in the SmartBar when you wake up. If the kids tend to
watch shows while dinner's cooking, those shows will be waiting in the SmartBar at that time
each day.
Use the DOWN arrow on your remote control to move to the SmartBar, then select a show to
watch it.
