Question about a line of a sitcom
I'm watching a old sitcom called The Golden Girls. When Rose is talking with her granddaughter, she said:"You know, I used to go out with a Robert. His father owned the movie house in town. One month, I saw the same picture 15 times."
Her Granddaughter said:"Sounds like cable."
What does granddaughter mean?

I have never watched this programme, but I would assume it means that cable TV has a lot of reruns. As her grandmother said she 'saw the same picture 15 times', it is similar to watching the same programmes on cable TV.

Cable television channels show a lot of repeats.
