Current Television Programs....

I don't watch Packed to the Rafters, but saw the ad for it. I think it was on tonight? Did the toddler fall down the hole or did they stop the episode as a cliffhanger?

It was actually quite 'subdued' FF.
Only a few minutes was dedicated to that actual story line.

They managed to save her - the 'long lost brother' became the hero.

I didn't even need a box of tissues like I thought I might...lol.

But realistic enough - I mean that's what toddlers are capable of - running off within the blink of an eye.

Did anyone see MKR last night?
Dr Evil's face when the girls didn't win the challenge was priceless. I think he and Gary make the show!!

Don't really watch much tv ....so sometimes stick to old series on DVD box sets like at the moment just ordered series 4 of kings wood country!!

Oh of course sanfl footy on abc ... No matter what game I still tape it to hard drive and watch it love looking at how other teams are playing ... Not just south

There's hardly any shows on channels 7,9 and 10 that i religiously watch these days. Apart from the footy, cricket, and news.

I find my favourite shows are on GO and 11. Family Ties, Happy Days, Married With Children, etc.

on DVD over the last 3 or 4 months i've watched (using the young fella as the excuse & he enjoyed them

the whole series of the following

Lost In Space

Batman

Catweazle


ps, with how the electricity prices are soaring at the moment i'd say Catweazle was right it is 'ELECTRICKERY'

MKR tonight - hope we are going to be saying bye bye to Thomas and Carla !!

Too right. Missed the end of last nights episode because it overlapped with Alcatraz (another pet hate of mine, what ever happed to things starting and finishing on the half hour? Grrrrr).

I've noticed that MKR is generally very accurate on when people get eliminated vs their cooking skill. Rare that a really good cooking team makes a surprise early exit.

I ended up actually prefering Peter and Gary over Thomas and Carla - at least they were honest about it - Thomas is so sly.

But once they've gone - I like all the others that are left so then I won't want to see anyone go...lol.

I suppose when it comes down to it my loyalties will have to be with the SA teams

Last night was ridiculous - it went close to 40 minutes over time, which meant I missed the start of Sports Fever before I quickly set the iQ on it (and Series Linked it to prevent a repeat)

Channel 7 is notorious for things running over - The Amazing Race is supposed to start at 9:30pm but the earliest it's actually started is 9:50pm!

Ridiculous really, it's not like these shows are live.

Problem is MKR is a ratings winner Personally it bores the crap out of me. We have gone from Big Brother to Idol, to Dance, to Kitchens, what is next in the world of reality TV? I am fed up with all this Reality B.S.

Easy and cheap to make, that's why we're getting a lot of it!

Got to say here I enjoy reality tv like pawn stars auction hunters storage wars etc .
Can not be bothered with free to air tv .The kitchen show that was on 10 in no way resembled the show from the uk it was modled on(masterchef i think) .They even brought a judge out from the uk who said the same thing !!!
IMHO WE aussies just stuff shows up.
Ready steady cook was a good show from the uk on fox .Can not stand the aussie one.

Honestly I like pawn stars, American Pickers, American Restoration and shows like that. I am not a fan of the idols and stuff like that. BTW who got married in Rafters last night

It was tonight Stawb - and basically it was 'carbos' mum and dad renewing their vows - sort of. Well declaring their love for each other anyway...lol.

Thanks I missed it. Most appreciated.

Watched "my big fat gypsy wedding" for the 1st time tonight. Geez it's a different world

Talking about being sly - the ads for tonights MKR hint at a team sabotaging another over the use of an oven

That whole episode was a farce. Dave actually said in the opening scene "she's safe now" and they referred to it happening '2 days ago' so it was actually a look back. Also (and I know this going back a week now, have been ill for the last week), at one stage during another scene (not the Ruby stuff), Carbo mentioned the gig "the night before" (long last brother playing that they were all at) so that storyline was the next day thus making the Ruby incident the day before the gig. Errrr bit suss maybe?

A little off topic but one of the actors in the Walking dead looked like we as a family had watched him before .Daughter googled him and sure enough in one of her favourite shows SVU.
Watching lady gaga's song Judas the same guy was playing Judis .Also the guy playing Jesus was in SVU. In her paparatzi (spelling sorry ) film clip is a guy from True Blood lmao .
While on the Walking dead guy playing CDC scientist was also in White Collar and SVU.And the main guy of walking dead is in a british show damn lost the name of it former SAS guy now MI 6 on uktv.
Small world hey most yanks have been in SVU .While guy who plays Munch has played him in a lot of cop shows .The same character I mean .While the actor appeared in a Pat Benetar film clip.
TV Trivia lmao

Heard last week that they are going to remake prisoner and Bea Smith will actually have a part in it.

Not AS Bea Smith, I hope, which would require rewriting past Prisoner history to happen.
