sorry

Complete with adverts!!! Yeah, that sounds reel good doesn't it?
But each episode would be an hour long instead of 40 minutes - real time ;o) Would it? With Five's dismal record of editing (i.e. butchering)? If Five show it, it will be on at 8:00 pm for about 15 weeks before vanishing without trace. Channel 4 would edit it for a tea time audience, show 3 episodes and then broadcast the rest in the prestigous 2 am slot in three years time. I hate to think what they will do with episode 5 then - in the states they put the warning message "Due to some graphic violence, viewer discrection is advised" during the ad breaks :o) |

Nah, keeping Pure ****e even though they've lost the rights to 24 would be another example of Stuart Murphy "thinking out of his box". Still, not long before his self-imposed departure from BBC Free materialises - with a track record like his, it can only be onwards and upwards for the muppet. And there's a ready made replacement, eager for a whole channel to **** up instead of just a single programme.

Personally, I would love to see "24" on FIVE. http://logofreetv.org/ XML Newsfeeds: http://forum.logofreetv.org/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=865 Not much of a loss, by all accounts. Fox wanted to charge OTT for the 3rd series that wasn't doing that well in the US - the broadcasting to Europe bit was a smokescreen, IMHO. In any event, the second series was pretty poor after the first, so I don't see this as a big loss. I gave up on series 2 half way through - way too boring and formulaic. That's the trouble with US shows - they're flogged to death. I find it hard to believe anyone who loves good drama could find season two of 24 'boring and formulaic.' Its the most gripping thing Ive ever seen on television. So yes, a lot of people will consider it a great loss not to have 24 on BBC2. |

So yes, a lot of people will consider it a great loss not to have 24 on BBC2. Quite. 24 floats my boat. It has to be one of great TV events for me of the year: Plus CSI, Law and Order and The Shield. It is a matter of taste of course. The scene where the nuke goes off was one of those profound TV moments, at least in my mind. -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

I've only read a few episode synopses in TV Zone, but Carnivale sounds pretty damn interesting.
