Yup. With the writers guild thing, Virgin are Laughing at Sky right now, because they have lost everything... and they are scrambling for content now
Thats why your seeing rip offs of programs left right and centre.
I mean "How much smarter than a 10 year old" or whatever it is? Im sure something like thats been on the BBC... as a Kids show.

Just because you don't care doesn't mean that no one does.

The Sky basics arent worth the time, i mean sky one shows movies??? Since when has Sky One become another Sky Movie channel?
They show 4, 5, or even 6 episodes of a show back to back, they have no new stuff to show because they put all of their money into American shows which are not being made currently due to the writers strike!
I can say this till im blue in the face, i do not miss the sky basics, if i they come back they come back, if they dont.. oh well theres other ways to watch the stuff they have on there without lining the murdochs pockets!

Your right. The subscribers went up , and it says a lot.
Also, there is only so much Malcome in the middle re-runs I can take, as well AS tv show marathons, because the lazy people cant be bothered putting content in there?
Give the strike a look in also, they havent got half decent programs... so i dont think itll come back... although, with the problems they are having currently, we might get it cheaply...
