Quick repeats

[Cotty]

I saw a film the other day and it was ok. Checking Sky Guide and its on tonight as well. What is the point of repeating something so quickly?

Are there so few people in the UK without some form of recording device that they think its worth showing the same progream 3 or 4 times a week to make sure everyone watches it.

Surely the people who saw it the first time will not watch it a second time so soon after they watched it, so they are only gaining the people without recording equipment who missed the first program. Is that really worth it?

A result of the downturn and too many channels with not enough cheap programmes to fill the schedule.

I'm watching 2fast 2furious, what a load of bolux

Paramount (now comedy central) is (was hopefully) the worst. You'd see a show, watch it and spot that they had the same show on later, so you tune in to find its the same episode too
