Favourite Sky One Show
 
Whats your favourite shows on Sky One ?

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
My favourite has to be Hawaai Five O as it is action packed but it also has excellent storylines to it.

Voted.

However, the vote is somewhat limited - there are a lot more shows on Sky One that I like, Futurama being one.

You should have included "Other" and "None" and then I could have voted.

Seriously I cannot remember the last time I tuned to that Channel.

I love an Idiot Abroad and can't wait for the second series to start this Friday.

Whilst I enjoy The Simpsons and Futurama I never watch them on SKY. I got into a habit a few years ago, when SKY 1 was removed, of downloading The Simpsons, Futurama and then Family Guy and American Dad from an unauthorised source. I know it's wrong but I just can't wait until the new episodes are screened here in the UK.

It's crazy. I'm paying for Premium TV but don't actually watch my favourite shows when they receive their UK premier. It's the same for True Blood and The Walking Dead. In fact the delay between True Blood being screened in America on HBO and then here in the UK is ridiculous.

I can`t believe you just said that! The writing on the show is superb. I love the fact that there`s jokes in it for adults and children equaly. Still everyones entitled to opinions whether we agree with them or not. Many people think Ricky Gervaise is funny,for me he`s one of the least funny men on tv. The Simpsons episode he wrote was poor in my opinion.

Mick Fisher 28-09-2011 17:35

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
I don't like The Simpsons at all and regard Ricky Gervaise as beyond awful.

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
The Simpsons and Futurama are probably the only thing I watch on Sky One on a regular basis but that being said both are 9/10 useless on Sky One HD due to them mostly being repeated past episodes with the exception of a few newer HD ones.

Not into the whole American series of shows they have on Sky One like House etc.

Do watch the odd repeat of Road Wars but thats on more often on Pick TV nowadays :)

I've never thought about why I don't like it.

I guess it's like caulieflower cheese or maceroni cheese, just the smell of it makes me heave. I don't know why, it just does.

It's the same with The Simpsons, Futurama and many other TV shows too numerous to mention. I just don't like them.

I can't say as I like it either although I used to a while back.

Well if Fox get their own way The Simpsons will be removed from Sky 1, and moved to their own channel.

Can I third both these. The Simpsons has become tired and is just rehashing old jokes & Ricky Gervaise is just NOT funny.

i recon 'the simpsons' is the best show ever!! well,apart from the new HD shows.they are rubbish..the old ones are very funny..i been watching it since 93

telegramsam 11-03-2012 11:06

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
Must disagree entirely regarding the comments about the simpsons. I think it`s just as funny and original now as it ever was,funnier in fact. Each to their own of course. I do agree about Ricky Gervaise being very unfunny. I never got the humour in the office at all.

Well you'd be vastly wrong never ever watch it , shows watched on Sky One in our house are as follows Strike Back , Hawaii Five O , NCIS LA , Stella , Mad Dogs etc.

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
I'm really looking forward to watching Touch when it starts, the adverts definitely do their job of selling the show to me. Just waiting for my never miss email to arrive any day now. :)

colin25 11-03-2012 13:02

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
Can't you set up a recording when the advert comes on?..it is 20 March..8 pm (oops, hope I didn't spoil the surprise :D)

:p:

No, I'm fairly sure that adverts only give you the option to set a reminder using the green button. I do agree though that setting a show to record straight from the advert would be very neat. :)

No you can set a reminder or series link from the green button , press green then highlight show and press R then select record once or series.

The current Simpsons are variable - some of them are excellent, some are just pants.

I also agree about Ricky Gervaise, I found the office just stupid and boring, and gave it up after a couple of eps.

Doz007 11-03-2012 13:44

Re: Favourite Sky One Show
 
I can't believe the amount of people in this thread who don't find Ricky Gervais funny. Judging by the amount of awards he's won, I thought I was the only one!

Great to be amongst like minded folks! :p:

l have to agree with you on both counts as to me Ricky Gervais is vastly over-rated and compared to the old comedians he is definitely non league material when matched against the great comedians of old.

I did enjoy Mad Dogs. :)

Sadly it is the only Sky1 show I have watched on a regular basis since IIRC Time Gentlemen Please.

Just set a series link via green button on advert for Touch so if you see it you can set it.

Good stuff, I wasn't aware it worked like that. So even though the prompt on screen says 'remind me' it's really acts like a series link?
