tv...
okie... does anyone actually know the show scrubs??? it's this show about doctors ala ER... only it's a comedy... it used to be shown on sat at 7pm... so it's not one of those shows thats too risque or crude... it was actually funny...
then it got pushed back to sat 1am... simpsons were back and there apprently was no slots left for a show like this... at this timeslot... the show became more explicit... is it because it was more explicit so it got pushed to this slot where it's target audience, young yuppies, were out partying... or was it not recieving enough ratings so it got pushed to a time where it's target audience is out partying???
okie for future notice... channel five doesn't really seem to understand how the tv thing work... although they are the ONLY free to air english channel around... they air whatever whenever they want and expect people to tune in... at least channel 8 and channel U do take into consideration what's airing on the other channel before they put their hyped up movies into the slots... for example... when channel 5 is showing their monthly hyped up movie... the respective channel 8 and U movie on that day would usually be a rerun...
pls... channel five pls take a lesson to plan your programmes... the timing just forces people to watch crap... like manhunt??? as a guy it's a lame show... actually all the bachelor and it's female counterpart are lame... lame lame lame... do people watch crap like this??? unfortunately, yes... people watch this because the show is shown on primetime... no other shows... no choice...
well i personelly don't watch buffy... but it is quite a famous show... but did you know that channel 5 used to air it at 12 midnight??? it was not a rerun... it was a NEW season... just like one tree hill... 12 midnight... new season... so channel5 ASSuMEs that the target audience of these shows, which happened to be teens would stay up late to watch the show... as if they have no school the next day...
which then brings me to the next point... channel five shows reruns at primetime... and it's not a famous/ popular/ fanatically followed show like friends or desperate housewives... for your info... desperated housewives is now re-runing at 1am... they are re-running the channel 5 made show missing... they are re-showing missing on wednesday at 10pm... and in the papers, it boldly states encore...
now scrubs is showing everynight at 2am... i think it's every morning... i'm not sure if it's a rerun or a new season... but i heard it got canned in the US...

Channel 5 does show good shows at prime time such as Amazing Race, Charmed etc. And shows like Manhunt and Bachelor(ettes) have high ratings in the States and there's no reason why they shouldn't be on prime time. You'll be surprised how many people like to watch these shows, not because they have no choice.
Channel 5 got to show shows that have high ratings here of cos. Maybe the shows you mentioned do not have ratings high enough.. Moving the show to a late timing because of its explicit contents is also a good move so that young children will not be able to watch them... This is how the Americans do it too..
If you find that there are no shows to watch on Channel 5 rite, just watch Channel 8 or Channel U lorz.. They have nice shows too..
