I have always hated cable and will never get it. Didn't have it in Australia (television stations were so much better down there than they are here) and even though I roll my eyes at the number of infomercials that are on broadcast TV, I would rather do something more useful with my time than spend it flicking over channels, which, like you said are just repeats after repeats after repeats..  |

Hey DW!!! Thanks for the support, LOL!! If the number of drug-pusher commerical and political ads are this bad on regular tv, I can't imagine how awful it would be have 40 more ways of selling you bologna, LOL!! I bet in Australia you didn't have all the smear campaigns and magical pill commercials interrupting the peace, did ya? Boy I feel like Sour Sally today with all my gripes, I bet that means Aunt Flo is on her way here :O What kinda shows are popular in Australia and what shows do you enjoy here in the states?  |

LOLOL.. But I swear, sometimes i'll be too tired to change channel and i'll get so sucked in with the infomercials that i want to grab my credit card and order some crap! LOL. Luckily i have good control and if i am too lazy to change the channel then i am definately too lazy to get my credit card and phone! |

Oh and Aussie TV has the same TV shows that are in the US (Not much of an Aussie drama market out there.. i mean there is some but we are more interested in the US than our own! LOL) But we have our own news programs of course and various other shows here and there  |

I agree, it is a rip off. We do have that, but we have to pay alot more to get local channels and ones we actually watch. We would get cable but we can't get it where we live.  |

well im alot late, but sports blows. There isnt really anything thats interesting about sports. I have rabbit ears and am prefectly happy with it. We get WB, FOX, NBC,ABC and CBS plus PBS and a few others that im not sure about. For a one time purchase of $30 bucks for the amplified ears, we get alot of channels, and we have avcr and dvd player and a few local places to rent if we are really that desperate. But 20 bucks for c-r-a-p is sad. ESPN is good for scores and highlights at 7 to 8 am, if it interests you, but otherwise, it itself is a repeat of nonsense.  |
