Annoyed with TV

Just wanted to moan about something. TV Scheduling. I am sick of it being abused by the Free-to-air stations. Shows getting knocked about, certain shows going into triple overtime, pushing back the shows you really want to watch.

I have a big problem with Big Brother. Why dedicate so much time to a concept which should have died before the first ep aired in Australia. I thought we (as Aussies) were a bit smarter than that.

As you might tell, I am no fan of BB, and even less of a fan of the regular late running shows, last minute timetable changes and regular rescheduling that seems to be the standard mode of operation for TV Today.

Last night, my wife and I had to wait nearly 1/2 an hour for a show just because another show had preferential treatment and was allowed to go well overtime. It is simply not good enough.

I thank you for you time in reading this small rant. For more ;-) use the Yahoo 360 link to my personal blog.

hah.... yeah same here mate.... since they started these kind of shows that is "reality shows", it began to getting boring and they are same as can be to other shows. you know, i dont watch much TV any more except with a good old movies or fave actor are on.

i admitted that i watched more on greek programs then the western programs or movies. the greek programs has better programs with more on history of Greece and europe, music, cooking shows and etc.

Also i do at times that i go on to live theatres and comedy shows then watching boring shows.
