Great we will get the Late Show
again .
ITV2 had it it years ago.

Great... The Late Show, Dr Phill and Star Trek! WHAT FUN.

I hope they will air The Early Show, Big Brother and Survivor and other GOOD CBS shows.

Hopefully this could mean we get some good american shows earlier then usual.

Hopefully we'll get the American Big Brother on CBS Reality. I really like their show but I don't have the will power to download every episode and watch on computer

I hope we get usa bb too:D

They better not cut Cops. :nono:

Please have BBUSA

I WANT JULIE!

i.e. The Early Show, Big Brother USA.

yes,
bb u.s !
all we need now is for vh1 to air in the u.k

Oh great more American **** being shoved down our throats that no one cares about!

Yet do we see BB UK, X Factor and other UK Shows being aired in America?

NO!

Why?

Because they know our shows are far better so their scared of Americans loving our versions and not their shows!


CBS will be an epic fail in the UK they always do this, show us American shows that hardly anyone watches, when will they get the message NO ONE IN THE UK COULD GIVE A ****!

BB USA Will be an epic fail in the UK Too...

If the UK version which is loved and knowen more than any show in the UK is getting 1 Million, imagine what the **** USA Version will get!

God I cant wait to see the ****ing Americans faces when they see that all these shows are failures in our country!

We have Brilliant shows like Corrie,Eastenders,X Factor,Big Brother,Im a Celeb, the list could go on....

So why do we need ****ing cheesy, OTT Shows by Americans!

This Is a Not a Main Channel
Not Forced on you.


I miss the Letterman show
and am pleased it will return.
The UK does not try that.

God what did usa tv ever do to you bitch

That unpopular with American Idol and America's Got Talent pull in close to 1m viewers for ITV2

All I see is xenophobic bile here. You don't know what you're talking about really as US shows do very well here, Flashfoward is getting Channel 5 it's best ratings since The Mentalist which coincidently is another american show.

Half of E4's shows are american imports, they do extremely well. The likes of Gossip Girl is one of ITV2's most publicised shows ETC. Sky One's a selling point of getting a Sky Box, why you ask? because of it's american imports. The Simpsons always rates well and has done for years. All these are just recent examples, I could go on for paragraphs about all the successful US shows there is on UK TV.

They're all far from failures, as far as I'm concerned the only failure here is you.

Oh and UK programs do get shown in America, there is a BBC US Channel which airs BBC programs and programs from other uk broadcasters (The US audience was a large part of what brought Primeval back). The likes of Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval and others are successful on BBC America.

Come back when you know a little bit more about the crap you spout.

Survivor and Big Brother ROCK !!

Bravo! :joker:

I'll be intrigued to see what shows these channels will carry, though I don't think we'll see Big Brother on there until C4's deal runs out next September. I reckon they'll bring The Amazing Race to the UK before BB and Survivor.

:O

I agree. Very much.

Hopefully they'll air the US Big Brother. Would save me having to download torrents all the time. The Late Show will be handy when guests that I want to see are on there.

I agree completely, I bet if you thought about it you probably love some american tv shows aswell. The Americans scared of our tv shows being better, haha what a load of bollocks.

Haha I love how many of you replied to my Message and tried to defend Americans but failed

We aint defending Americans, why the fucck would we do that, we're British. We're simply pointing out the bullshit that you post. & failed ey?

I think you'll find Dezzy won...

ALSO there's UK programs shown on other channels in America too. Secret Diary of a Call Girl and Shameless are shown on the Showtime Channel (Which is an otherwise pure american channel). Henceforth another hole punched through your argument Patrick.
