Abstract
The programmable cable controller in accordance with the invention is adapted to accept a time limit and a time period which are input by a viewer. A channel timer is provided to track the display time of the cable television channel and, upon reaching the preset time limit, display of the cable channel is blocked. The channel timer is reinitialized upon expiration of the preset time period. The programmable cable controller is also adapted to receive cable television programming listings and a viewer's programming preferences and to store them in memory. The viewer's programming preferences are applied to the cable television programming listings to produce a redacted listing of television programming which may be displayed on the television set.
