Saturday night TV, not acceptable.

[Balmoral Green]

Blimey, just had a scan of tonights TV schedules, and there was absolutely nothing on worth watching on any of the five terrestial channels. Now I know we all have different tastes, but there was a time when there was at least something to watch, no matter what floats your boat.

How come mid-week there is loads of decent telly, but Staurdays are now officially crap telly day. They might as well just shut the entire network down.

It's not 'ing acceptable I tell you.

Do what I do: record Footballers' Wives from Friday night and watch it tonight.

With chips.

[Lois]

What you on about?!!

645 Dancing on ice
800 end of lottery
820 Casualty
920 Skate off

Although admitedly after that there's nothing on...and it doesn't match what saturday night TV used to be about. I miss Strike it Lucky

Does make you wonder what happens to your license fee doesn't it!

Time for a DVD, anything that anyone can recommend renting??

It's going on the 'Lois' demographic


Runs for cover

[Lois]

ha if it's on my demographic I want more decent comedy instead of this "lets try and copy something good but actually just make a load of un-funny crap"

[plfrench]

I'd have thought most 'Lois's' would be out on a Sat night!!

BG, console yourself in the knowledge that Commando is on tomorrow night. QED.

Just found 'Sword in the stone' on five, decent classic.

Why the hell do they have screaming and shouting programmes on Saturday nights?

Yep, similar for me. Had a scan of the Radio Times and my weeks viewing will be:

Sunday - Stargate SG1 followed by Enterprise on C4 plus Blade 2 Channel 4

Monday - ER Channel 4

Thursday - House Channel 5

Remind me again why I pay for a TV licence

Must admit that, since the new year I have decided to cut down on the amount of TV I watch so have not been looking at any of the new shows (Lost, Life on Mars, etc).

saturday night telly - this is where the £17 asda DVD player comes in very handy!

oh - and the phoenix nights DVD from ebay!¬

[grahamw48]

From 18-40 I was out having fun every night, especially weekends, so never worried about telly.

Presumably the Saturday schedule is still aimed at kids and pensioners.

[The Wiz]

Starsky and Hutch 8.00 pm Sky Movies ... err 3 I think.

[lord summerisle]

hey you can moan about 5 channels of nowt...



C5 hasne perculated into this valley.... and wont do till after the supposed analoge singal switch off

[littlegreenfairy]

Meh - nothing on at all...I would go out but too bloody tired from the week.

Dunno why I pay for a TV licence...its making desperate housewives and neighbours extortionate to watch!
