    TG4
    What about 3e? I don't understand why everyone hates this channel. It has great programmes on like The Office, Chuck, 30 Rock, House, Seinfeld, Heroes and many more. You can't even get 30 Rock, The Office (season 5) or Seinfeld on any English channel, even if you have Sky. I love it! The same can be said for RTE 2. They get the rights to Scrubs, Lost, Prison Break, 24, CSI, The Mentalist and Smallville and loads more, all in the one place without the need to subscribe to any Satellite or cable provider. I know they put a lot of the content on at bad times but there is no other channel that has all of this content. I can't understand all the RTE bashing when IMO it isn't a bad channel at all.

    3e is satellite so we'll leave it out, keep it terrestrial.

    Tough choice there but I will go with tv3 because they showed all the new shows quicker than the uk of course and they buy some pretty good ones, its our best channel!

    Shouldn't RTE be broken into two channels for the poll?

    Definitely... too late now to change it.
    RTÉ1 and RTÉ2 are different enough that they shouldn't be bundled as one.

    Where's the "none of the above" option? TG4 wins by default for me as I very rarely watch it, so therefore I've no negatives towards it.

    If UTV is there then BBC 1 and 2 Northern Ireland should also feature.

    TG4, easily... has the best home grown shows and is responsible for some of the best quality imports, such as The Wire and Oz
