You Tv should be shut down/Teleshopping

    I realy dont know how You Tv is in the Entertainment section of the EPG. They basically show Shop America Programmes selling you ****e that you would never want, and then intertwine it with the exact same episodes of The Danny Bondaduce show and Insider, every day so they can dodge the ITC who want you to provide some actual programmes.

    I wonder if in a years time they will be showing the same programmes, id say they will, its a disgrace that this made it to the EPG at all. On Top of that, the slimy gob****e Kevin Trudeau is a convicted felon.

    On another note, who else is bloody sick of not just the Shopping Channels, but the way everyones favourite channels like Bravo, Game Network and even E4 now are running the dreaded Teleshopping in their schedules!, its a disgrace.

    Could they be actually selling anything?, i mean really, Are they making money?, Does anyone know?.

    Don't think there's any avoiding Teleshopping. You TV were sneaky indeed but it may only be a matter of time before Sky move it.

    The better channels now carry Teleshopping to fill off-air time and make money at the same time. I do believe Sky Sports Extra has teleshopping too.

    And over the last week or so, attheraces.

    Is there no avoiding it???

    The shopping channels are very profitable, especially the holiday ones.
