leannenufc 0 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 1. The West Wing (by a good few miles) 2. The Simpsons (first 10-12 seasons. I can barely watch the newer ones) 3. Sex and the City 4. Friends 5. Entourage The Wire, Sopranos, South Park, Grey's Anatomy, Peep Show, The Office and so many more could easily have sneaked into the five though.

NJS 4047 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Why did C4 fuck around with the programming of it so much?Cracking show mind. Don't get me started on the levels of fuckwittery at channel 4 on programming - they completely messed up Babylon 5 first time around - not showing it for weeks, sometimes out of order and then showed the final 5 eps of a meticulously plotted arc which had been building for 5 years at 9:30am as part of "the bigger breakfast" one xmas holidays - complete with the bigger breakfast logo on the screen and moronic voiceovers around all the ad breaks. I honestly came the closest I ever have to contemplating murder which says something as I harbour a lot of dark thoughts as a rule. Another shout out goes to Andi Peters who some fuckwit gave a job to at channel 4 and he proceeded to buy Angel and thinking it was just like Buffy scheduled it a 6pm hacked to ribbons. Cunts the lot of them. PS I forgot how much they messed around with The West Wing as well showing they haven't improved.

Cid_MCDP 0 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) It's a bit sad seeing stuff like the A-Team and The Dukes of Hazzard on Dave or whatever and realising they were actually gash. Knightrider is still watchable in all its camp glory though, strangely. As for me... 1. Twin Peaks 2. Space Ghost: Coast 2 Coast 3. Mystery Science Theater 3000 4. Arrested Development 5. Rescue Me 6. Damages Edited July 28, 2009 by Cid_MCDP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its amazing how people struggle with the concept of a programme that needs to be on after 9pm so they stick it on at 6pm and take half of it out! Mind the BBC did the same with Buffy at 6pm, editting alot out back in the day. If you can't show a programme as it is then its not on at the right time.

Same as Top Gear on Dave tbh, to fit in the adverts they cut out bits-mainly my favourite 'sit round and discuss the news bit' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be arsed with thinking of more. Never even heard of the bolded one. Dude! Sunny is hilarious. ROCK FLAG AND EEEEEEAGLE! http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/sunny/#/home/ If you go in the Video section, there are 5 full episodes from season 1 and a bunch of the "Fail" commericals.

luckyluke 1 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I remember the cretins at Channel 4 frequently missing off the crucial last half hour of play of the cricket so they could show Friends/Hollyoaks/Big Brother/some other programme for subhuman pond life.

Guest Stevie Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Dynasty. Dallas was actually canny good. Pure cheese but hilarious with it. Larry Hagman man I quite admired Victoria Principal, JR was a proper Texan twat, Cliff Barnes did nothing apart from slag JR off and order Chinese take-aways with his lass. Canny wabs too.

sammynb 2934 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) The ShieldPrison Break (Season 1) Entourage The West Wing The Tudors Blackadder Close but no cigar. Entourage The Shield Carnival Rome Weeds The Young ones/Bottom. Special mentions have to go to Tudors, Rescue Me, Boston Legal, the English series where three teams have to build a vehicle from scrap to compete in a race on a specially built track - forget what it is called and Jonathan Ross's Americana. Also make a special trip to see Naked and Funny if you like titties (the program is shite but there are some great baps in it).
