Agree and disagree there are also some excellent US shows it's finding a nice mix , the problem I've found with US dramas is they don't know when to end a show , look at Prison break a great show but should have ended after 2 seasons. The wife loves her fix of Desperate Housewives and Greys Anatomy.

Once it moves into the Variety Pack later this year I'm sure the situation will change.
I fully agree with that.
