Cable is out and I have to watch neighbor's TV through the windows. How do I get him to keep cartoons on?
He doesn't know what I'm doing. We have the same brand of TV, so I've been using my remote to change the channel and put on cartoons from my house. I can watch his TV by looking through my bedroom window into his living room window. However, he seems to get upset and puts the news back on every time I flip it to cartoons. This is getting very frustrating for me. I also might want to watch TV when he goes to sleep. How can I keep him from coming out and turning the TV off?

that's a toughie, but maybe some sort of a tranquilizer dart.
you'll have to practice your timing, but i'll bet after a while you'll practically have him trained.

Sneak into his house and steal all his remotes. Chances are, he's not old enough to remember when people actually had to get up off the couch, and walk to the TV to change the channel. And if he does remember, he's probably too old and lazy to actually do it.

You must convince your neighbour that God wants him to watch cartoons 24/7, GOR.
Whilst hanging out your bedroom window with a megaphone, you must project a resonantly god-like voice toward his living room. As he settles down to watch the news you must boom out "NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS, MY SON!" and then command him to change channels and watch Scooby Doo - for the sake of his immortal soul and those of his wife and children.
If he tries to switch off come bed time, electrocute him so he thinks it was God's wrath.
Good luck!

Use the parental control on your remote and block all his channels except Cartoon Network.

Ring him up, and pretend to be the pizza guy, keep him distracted, then get ur friend to climb through the window, and change the channel, easy as pie...

Throw your remote at him with remarkable accuracy and hit him in the head.......Miss F
Just keep turning it off till he thinks there is an issue. When he goes to bed turn it back on mute. Not like you can hear it any ways.........The Prof

Let him watch the news now and switch it on when he leaves. If he turns it off, tell him you were there first this time !

you could call him and act like a person from the cable company
tell him that you are trying to fix his tv, but the only way to do that is if he keeps it on

Call him up and ask him to stop changing the channel
