    Just spotted that this is on RTE.

    What is wrong with them ? Scheduling it at 1am ?

    That's when people watch tv obviously.:pac:

    Better off catching it on rte player if you can, assuming they'll put it on there, or finding some place online to download a divx version.

    There's no point relying on tv anymore it's just an inconvenience.

    Have to say i quite enjoy this show,pretty damn good. But this is typical of RTE scheduling in the past. Sons of Anarchy started at 11.30 - 12 time slot and has gradually been pushed further and further into the night. They have done this with other quality shows in the past, Big Bang Theory comes to mind off the top of my head.

    SOA is fantastic, my favourite show at the moment.


    Then again being a biker I'm slightly biased ;)

    Another ridiculous RTE scheduling shocker. They've done it to so many good programs, most recently is Summer Heights High which was slipped to the post 12/12:30 am time slot.

    Anyway, is this the first or second season ?

    Just watched the second series, part 13 (Don't worry, no spoilers).
    Have to say, this is a brilliantly thought out show and great characters.

    As much as series one is great, season two gets much, much better!
    Can't believe RTE are so stupid to stick in on that that hour for ye.
    ...then again - we ARE talking about RTE! :rolleyes:
