Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

We had to downgrade one package due to money problems, and we really miss the Geographic and History channels as well as a few others. Now that Sky1 along with other Channels have gone, we tend to watch more of the UKTV ones, but they are just repeated all the time? We did have a look at that new "choice" thing that is supposed to be a filler, but quite frankly, they are the pits of programs in the first place?
We really want to stay loyal to Cable as we have been customers for years, but to be honest there is not much scope when you have the "middle rate" T.V. Package?
As for "pay as you view" well we had to drop a package to be able to keep our contract with cable, so there is no way we could afford that. So what does Virgin Media have in the pipeline for folk like us?

Never watched Sky One, but I'm liking the On Demand content. :)

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

Watching the same as I've always done - Just finished BSG S3E17 ;)

Good, wasn't it?

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

I'm just watching less tv at those times I watched Bones,Stargate and the Dresden files.That was my viewing for the week on Sky 1.Though I'm watching Eureka instead on a Thursday night.Then ther's Ugly Betty.

Has anyone seen the Blade series on Bravo?What do you think of it?

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

Only ever watched Sky One between 7 and 9pm. any other time was full of re-runs Voyager, TNG, Stargate... Yawn
Now I'm looking at UK Gold, Para Comedy 1 & 2.

New Simpsons, Stargate/Atlantis, Lost etc can be had at higher quality elsewhere... Before they are on Sky One.

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

Im getting the shows from other sources, Im finishing with VM after 12 years of having cable. There just is not anything now to justify keeping it when I can get freeview for things like e4 etc

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

I wanted to watch the series as i am a big Blade fan, just i heard it got canned after one series so didn't see any point in getting going on it.

I might pick it up later when it eventually hits VoD.

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

I much prefer VoD - watching thinks when I want, and without adverts....

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

Me too when it works! ;)

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

I was watching the football last night.
;)
This thread proves that we can get by without Sky One though.
It's not as big a loss as some people once thought.

Fingers crossed they actually turn up..



I am not missing sky one at all , I watched 11 Episodes of 2 and a half men on vod , and it did not cost me a penny , I am loving the on demand content

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

Means I no longer have the Tuesday night conflict with Holby City and Life on Mars vs SG1 and BSG :tu:

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

I just wish that Sky would update the Sky By Broadband pay per week or whatever thingy so that I can watch the last episodes of Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis.:mad: I did get to see a Zed and Two Noughts (Z00) though! Love that film!

Then I won't miss the missing chanels at all!!

I watched episodes 1 and 2 of Trigger Happy last night! Top stuff! (and free on VOD :) )

Re: What are you watching instead of Sky One ?
 

1. how can you yawn at repeats of sci fi shows and then wonder over to UK GOLD and not yawn? and para comedy is mostly repeats as well.

2. That isnt always the case sg1 and other shows can and have appeared first on sky 1 before any other network (including the US)
