    TV3 is gettin better, not that its ever any good. But it has some decent sitcoms now like Seinfeld, emm...Will & Grace (thump)...okay thats not so good. Just shoot me made me laugh sometimes and dont they rerun Cheers? It also shows the sick joke of a show that is "Nicky". Anyone seen that?
    N2 is probably my choice.

    my choice is TV3. i only ever really watch Irish telly for the Champions League and news (which i watch on RTÉ1)

    None of the above, so ... erm I ain't voting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 857 ✭✭✭davros


    For current affairs and documentaries of Irish interest, mostly RTE1 (though I think there is plenty of room for improvement).

    I also occasionally watch Agenda on TV3. Somehow they manage to interview the main movers and shakers that RTE never gets unless they come to Ireland to plug a book on the Late Late.

    Network 2, especialy on a Monday night. Like tinight!
    From 8 onwards, nothing but great comedy, except for Fergus's Wedding.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭SantaHoe


    Oh alright, if I have to chose the best of a bad lot, I'll take Network2... it's always been the better of the two through out the years, and still makes the effort to show genuinely entertaining programming.
    Best new-commer award goes to TV3 though, some good shows on sometimes and films usualy stay intact (unlike UTV's butchering jobs).

    And while I'm talking about it... why in Gods name do UTV show one half of the film, then break for an hour for the news, before showing the second half?
    Or are they still doing that? I haven't watched a film on UTV in years due to their compulsion for 'creative editing' ... I don't need swear-words bl33ped out for me, thanks all the same UTV.

    i occasionaly watch n2 on a monday night. sometimes the news on rte1 and then occasionall tg4 show something really good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,641 ✭✭✭✭Elmo


    tv3 is just ITV so it's not relly anything new

    N2 gets most of the best us sitcoms

    RTE 1 have the best news coverage, TV3 news tries so hard to be tabloid but fails, N2 News 2 is the real tabloid news.

    TG4 has some very good programmes like Imu San... with Hector O hEOCHAGAIN.

    If I watch anything on TV3 that on Sky One I'll watch it first on Sky One as they show just as many adds however will wait for shows to be on RTE instead of watching them first on Sky.

    RTE tend to have them first anyway. (And show less adds)

    Never watch films on TV3 unless i record them to many f u c k i n g adds.

    TV3 shows the same ol muck has the odd good film.

    Whos sinester Pete?

    He's a DJ on Phantom FM 91.6
    (phantom message board is under Free Radio
    in the top right hand corner of your screen)

    He should be on tonight at about 10 with Pete Reed on

    Check out 'Digby Chix' on Network 2,
    its on the Den during the week.

    Really well produced :)
