Are there any TELLYBOX programmes worth watching these days?

[Simster]

This is a serious question. Unless you've paid for sport, there seems to be bugger all on these days.

I even settled down to watch what I presumed would be an interesting C4 documentary on that 9/11 Fraud woman, and it was as dull as ditchwater - an hour long show which could have been condensed comfortably into 20 minutes.

Still, at least my HOUSE is going to get decorated reasonably quickly I suppose.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

That 9/11 show was first screened on 9/11 last year. And no there is nothing on these days, neither my g/f or I really watch TV, and the 'tellybox' serves as a screen on which to watch the occasional DVD more than anything.

There's always the live England matches to look forward to. Oh, wait a minute..

 

[Icy Gull]

The News, Formula 1 and the Tudors is about all I've watched recently, although I admit to watching Eggheads on occasions

Good call on the Tudors. I SKY+ it at the moment.

There are a few weekday nights when there is nothing worth watching at the moment.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

The live MotoGP coverage has been superb again, & I love the re-runs of The Sweeney, Minder & Morse to boot!

I only ever make a point to watch the formula one and match of the day.

The recent decline in decent telly has enabled me to get a lot of work done on my part-time masters' degreen however. As soon as I have finished my dissertation, I will go out and shop for another hobby because there isn't anything on the tellybox.

apart from Sport which I do like to watch, I also do enjoy

Lost, Heroes, My Name Is Earl and The Sarah Connor chronicles unfortunately I do have to download all these shows to keep up to date with them..

If its high quality drama you want, last night did see the return of the Billie Piper smutfest on ITV2

 

[Pondicherry]

Dexter - the mild mannered serial killer

I always make a point of watching those 4.

Come Dine With Me
QI repeats
Mock The Week,

there's not a lot on this time of year

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Who Do You Think You Are? Next week - David Suchet

 

[Easy 10]

My Thursdays have died a death. Earlier this year, Thursday night was the SHIZ, because you had:

Life on Mars
Terminaator: The Sarah Connor Chronicals
Question Time

Now what is there ? NUFFIN, thats what. I find myself just looking forward to the NEWS for christs sake.

 

[house your seagull]

QI, Benidorm (albeit not on at the moment) ...

Mock The Week is lo-quality in my opinion, some of the comedians are a bit out of touch, except frankie boyle and dera'o'breha'o'dera, the boss-eyed kid from brizzle is alright too but the bald one with the underbite, not good.

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

how not to live your life - bbc three

 

[Badger]

I spend most of my time watching Dave these days because there really isn't much else.

Mock the Week is quite entertaining although Frankie Boyle is starting to get on my nerves, he seems to just make outrageous jokes for the sake of it now.

Dragons Den is the only other thing I've been watching recently but that has now finished so I may be forced to go out and socialise with people (or increase my DVD collection).
