    Why do they not trailer new series of UK shows? :confused:
    It's only by forensically examining the RTE Guide that I ever find out these shows are on! *And* they bury them on RTE2 (mainly) midweek late at night... :rolleyes:
    Spooks, Hustle, No Angels, Bodies, Life On Mars, Shameless, Green Wing (when it was on) all get treated the same (and 24 - but that's a US show).
    I mean, Life On Mars has been one of the most-acclaimed UK shows in the last few years but there was no mention of it at all!

    I guess its because they reckon most people have already watched them on cable or satellite

    As for "burying" them on RTE2, in this day and age is there really a difference whether its on 1 or 2?

    Forensically examine? hmm, i hoped you had gloves on.

    seriously yeh,don't think ireland can handle most of that. by 3098 RTE might be showing Dr. Who.
