I never said you had to like it, just why complain? Its HUGELY popular and fun for us. It also brings in a ton of money which why no other channel will run programming against it. Thats called capitalism!

But it isn't the be all, and if channels did offer competition, they wouldn't all lose out....at the mo, of course there gonna lose out if there offering shite and repeats.
It ain't the end of the world, but it is annoying.

It's just the same Bob when a TV network doesn't put up a popular show next to a huge show like Survivor or why Eastenders and Coronation street don't clash. It's not like basketball has wiped out the entire month of march for you Bob. They only re-run a show on thursday as far as I am aware.

You do not understand the reasons I give karma. I'm more a quality over quantity kind of person. So what if DCMark has been a member for a long time? Big deal.

PS: You've blown your chances of getting Karma for a while now. The quality of your posts has slipped recently too (at least the ones I've read).

reruns...Lost, csi, numbers, ER....pretty much anything half decent are re-runs, only new thing that ain't is that jake in progress.

something not competing against one show is one thing, but it does appear that nearly everything has been changed just for march....fair enough if the channels want to do that, nothing to watch, so I won't bother watch it, no great loss at the end of the day, but it is still annoying.

Thankfully you know more than the executives of the American TV channels. Whew! They really should bring you on as a consultant. After all, you have such experience in watching TV!

Bob

no, but it is an opinion, and the last time I checked, we were allowed them in this country.

But about march madness, uconn getting drop kicked this early was a bit of a surprise.

Phew! At least one of the local teams has been knocked out (Wake Forest Univ. which is not in Wake Forest but Winston Salem. I do know the story why but that's another thread).

So, that leaves UNC, Duke and NC State still in the running.
