Hi everyone, well its almost Christmas... im not sure whether i laugh or cry at this point?
Anyway, what entertainment will be put on for us this Christmas? Repeats of everything we saw last Christmas i expect??
I dont object to things like Morcambe & Wise, the classic British comedies being shown, afterall we just dont make shows like that anymore.
All we have to look forward to these days are Reality TV, on nearly every station at some stage in the year, many which have run their course and need to disappear. Im a Celebrity? No you're not mate, thats why you`re on this show!
We are all brainwashed into voting, i did only twice ever, and the shows makers rake in fat profits whilst we are left to pay for our voting on top of everything else.
I just think TV has got worse, we dont make TV like we used to in this Country. No more Leonard Rossiter, Ronnie Barker, Morcambe & Wise, Tommy Cooper, Benny Hill... they will never be replaced and this is the unfortunate thing. Unfortunate as it has meant the demise of TV.
There are no moe Gameshows - Strike it Lucky/Rich, Family Fortunes (not celebrities), The Generation Game - WHY???? I see Play your Cards right is now on in the afternoons.
Its high time the public shouted very loud at Broadcasters to sort their programming out.

You're so right.I remember when at Christmas there was so much to look forward to on TV - all the good old shows you mentioned. Now, what's trotted out is utter crap. I can't abide Reality shows (most of which I believe are fixed anyway) and the lack of good programming at Christmas is really sad. I got Sky partly because of that. I live in Canada now, and we get BBC Canada as well as hundreds of other channels.But we don't bother with the telly at Christmas... we have many DVD's - including lots of Christmas ones - and we have so much fun simply watching those. And if we tire of them, we have several T.V. shows on DVD just waiting for us to dive in!
Now, that's a plan :-)
