I H8 AUSSIE TEEV!! RAGES!!!

Is it too much to ask that we have consistent TV???

I'm finally able to watch S5 Supernatural because they started it here(I'm trying to be good and actually watch it on TV and weekly so it lasts longer) and there's two weeks of double episodes and I was looking forward to more and now tonight?

NO SPN!

Instead we now have a double episode of Stargate: Universe.

No wonder series television bombs here. It's because our networks can't manage to actually play a series with any kind of consistency or reason.

Aargh!!

Yeah, yasminke and I have been whinging about this all weekend. Hopefully it's just for this week to start SG:U off, but I don't think Network Ten likes us SPN fans at all.

I know!

I would've watched Stargate at any other time but now I really don't feel like watching it at all because it's taking my precious spn time!

Why couldn't they start it at 9.30 and have one ep of spn?? They don't care about scifi fans either so what's the diff if it ends at 11.30. Bah!

Bah indeed.

oh poo bums. they better bring it back next week or I'll storm the network! I mean good on them for trying out Stargate, and I suppose they know how loyal we SPN fans are.

Still sucks tho.

Apparently it's on 8.30 next week so we'll see how long that lasts. /seethes

This is why I download a lot of the stuff I like to watch. It might also be the reason why Australia has one of the highest illegal download rates. find all episodes below.

I was even *trying* to do the right thing and watch it and they *still* screw us. :/

I was erked with constantly running into spoilers on the web so I gave up. Now I download, then watch it on telly, then eventually buy the dvd. They loose no money and I get to enjoy the show without the evils of spoilers. Plus if I miss an epp here or there on the tv if I'm doing other stuff I know I'm not missing out too badly.

If the show is good, then the people behind it have nothing to fear with the loosing of money and such.

Supernatural is back next Monday at 8:30 with SGU at 9:30. This week they're airing the 2 parter opener together as 7 did with SG-1 and SGA.

I'm more peeved they've moved White Collar from 8:30 Tues to 9:30 for repeats of NCIS!

Argh! Why do they do that? It's not like we need the Simpsons on TV eleventy billion times a week either!! Maybe they could release some of the shows they bought and never aired instead!

:( Boo to them!

I'd be less peeved if they hadn't advertised for another SPN ep at the end of last week!

The SGU opener is a two parter (well, it's sort of a three parter... well... it's sort of ongoing up til ep 6, which is where I've seen up to... and if it weren't for the complete fail that I know is coming my way I'd probably grumble but like it, occasionally. *sigh*) so that'd be why. Just... they should've advertised adequately!

INORITE?? Don't say it's going to be on next week if it's NOT GOING TO BE ON NEXT WEEK.

I downloaded this season because I had no idea when (or even if) they would start airing it.

If you give up waiting for 10 to play nice, I'm happy to post you a disc of season 5 avi's

[identity profile] kellifer-fic.livejournal.com 2009-12-14 10:33 am (UTC)(link)
Awww... you're a doll! Apparently it's back next week so I'll see how long before they screw it up, move days or just bury it after midnight so they can air more simpsons and futurama for the 15 hundredth time!
intermezzo: (*meh*)

oh sweetie, I know exactly what you mean. At least, they're airing episodes in order? Here, sometimes they mess series up by a)not promoting them at all, b)promoting them for a certain timeslot only when you tune in that day and time the series somehow has shifted to an unknown time and date, wth? c)switching channels within the same network, of course without telling anyone or d)airing eps out of order. I was SO pissed when S1 of The X-files was aired out of order back then. It made absolutely NO sense.

So yeah, I've been trying to do the right thing myself, but sometimes they just make it impossible, don't they?

[identity profile] sams1ra.livejournal.com 2009-12-14 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Guh, I hate when they do that - when they change the timeslot and not advertise it. I stopped watching so many shows because of that!

[identity profile] kellifer-fic.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
No, they do that here too. They played Farscape all out of sequence and that show just DOES NOT MAKE A LICK OF SENSE out of order. :(

Noooooooo, not Farscape! That's blasphemy!

That really sux.
Me, I gave up on TV. Don't even own one. It's computer only for me. At least then, I get to set my own schedule, ya know?

[identity profile] shescheeky.livejournal.com 2009-12-14 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL! I know how you feel. They aired season 1 here in 2007 and season 2 is coming now. It's not the same but I was still MIFFED. (I was forced into committing criminal acts, for Pete's sake. Criminal acts like downloading the episodes off the internet and shiz. :O)

Wow, that is SUPER lame. And I thought I was deprived. Yeesh!

[identity profile] yasminke.livejournal.com 2009-12-14 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, and Channel 10 wonders why they don't get the viewer numbers they're used to.

Back on next week at 8:30. (Fingers crossed or [livejournal.com profile] charis_kalos will have to come up here and storm their castle.
