Default Intrusive DOGS

I'll be glad when MTV's European Music Awards are over so we can lose
that damned huge DOG (or rather, monkey) from the top right of the
screen!

Not only MTV is doing this; it seems that they think we're to think to
remember there something on. Ok if they remind us when a program
starts or near the end not whole through a program.

Quite! Living TV's *Queer Eye - 2 Days to go* is also getting a pain.

I notice during the Ad Breaks they take the dog off,Then in case you
switched over during the ads they advertise the programme again (followed by
the dog appearing again on the programme)
To top that off as *Most Haunted* finishes,We have the next programme being
put up under the LivingTV logo!
Perhaps they just think satellite viewers are forgetful,Thick or both.

BTW, has anyone tried to sue Ch.441 MTV Hits over their 'Non-stop MTV
hits' claim - bearing in mind the frequent advert breaks?

Since when do we tv channels listen to their viewers?

We do not count, all they interested in is thier advertisers.

If enought Sky Digital subscribers cancell thier subs they might just start to
listen.

I could do without SKY, I could do much better things with £19.50.
