Sorry you can't get to it. 

The one thing you might double-check is if you have more than one TBS feed. Does your cable setup have HD (high definition) active? On our setup here we have TBS running on standard definition (SD), chan 39, and high def, chan 807. Only 39 has the DVS under "Spanish" for this program. That actually happens fairly oftem, where I'll find DVS only on an SD feed. If that isn't it, I guess it could be that your feed has the second audio disabled somehow from your cable provider's end.

If you can't find it this time, there's always next year I guess. It started again at 2:00, and 4:00 and 6:00 showings remain today.

Happy Holidays!

Richard
