Geoff   10 #1 Posted March 12, 2003 Is it just me, or has ITV become unwatchable? Every night I look in vain for something to watch, but nothing appeals to me. The only thing I've watched recently was Midsommer Murders but even that is becoming "samey". The other night, at primetime (8-9 i think) they showed an hour documentary on Magaret Thatcher. Surely this is BBC 2's or C4's domain?  Any other views on ITV's current output? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Sidla   10 #2 Posted March 13, 2003 Yeah, I know the feeling. There's hardly ever anything worth watching on ITV. There's another programme at 9pm tonight about Margret Thatcher. It's a good job I've got a Video or I'd be bored stiff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

mojo1 Â Â 10 #8 Posted July 21, 2009 We bought Sky to record terrestrial programmes.... Â But do you watch them? Â I watch films but I'm just not interested in anything particularly that's on at the moment. Â I can't stand soaps, the news is mostly scare stories and media hype. Bring back Bremner, Bird and Fortune oh and of course Dr Who... but then they're both terrestrial, aren't they? Â ITV1 is and has been for a while rubbish, although they have shown some excellent crime dramas over the last few years, Wire in the Blood for instance, but even that's got repetative and dull. Â ITV2, 3 and 4... what on earth was the point in creating them if they can't even fill one channel with anything worth watching?

willman   10 #9 Posted July 21, 2009 I watch terrestrial news channels and life wouldn't be complete without JK. I watch the occasional movie on terrestrial but prefer sky movies tbh. Especially as every movie i watch appears to be super edited on terrestrial tv. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
