Repeating Programmes

[Nikki841973]

These days, especially if you have Sky, Cable or Freeview, we have 3,000,000 channels to choose from, but why is it that some refuse to repeat the new programmes they are showing?!

I am currently watching Jamies Chef on Channel 4, my stupid Sky+ box cut off the recording before the end of the show last night, so I missed the last 10 minutes or so, so I went programmer surfing looking for a repeat on either Channel4, E4, E4+1 or More 4, ....... there are NO repeats!

They repeat all the same old stuff, now don't get me wrong, I love Friends, but DO they have to show it continually?! Give other programmes a chance!

FRIENDS > Its been Repeated far too many times, just so that Channel 4 has a filler for the schedule:mad:

[megamouthmickey]

just on tv to fill up the space that the producers cant fill .. because they have nothing better to put on our screens how dull are they!!

They never repeat the good shows, only the rubbish ones :(

Those so called "rubbish" programs were good maybe the second time, but any more than that and you know that the channels are just trying to save money by recycling Repeats, again and again and again....

Let's form an End "Friends" NOW movement:cool:

nikki i once had sky t.v i got so fedup with the repeats i gave it up. i decided to go broadband instead with the money it,s the best move i have ever made.

i agree, they show the same thing too many times! i have sky and often wonder why bother as most of it ive seen hundreds of times! :rolleyes:

The TV Companies will never get rid of the repeats as they are a money saver -sadly:(

[walfordking]

they are going to repeat Jamies show again. they always do. later in the year they will put it as a repeat.

[kevinfromuk]

they are going to repeat Jamies show again.

Repeating a show with a Recipe isn't so bad -might be a tasty treat:p

what annoys me is programmes that are repeated in the same week. Like Dancing On Ice for example. The main show is on Saturday night, then it gets repeated again the next day!! (The BBC did the same thing with Strictly Come Dancing)
