Worst days/times of the week on TV?
 
I personally find Saturday morning/afternoon and Sunday TV the entire day repugnant..

Saturday morning/afternoon consists entirely of cooking shows, or football shows, or repeats of unfunny American 90s comedy

It only improves in the evening with game shows, chat shows, dramas , and music shows.

Meanwhile Sunday’s schedule consists entirely of OAP targeted programming - David Attenborough documentaries, Countryfile, and hymns. The only highlight is the odd film on ITV/2, but this is mostly targeted towards kids.

I mean does anyone actually enjoy country file ?!? Im sure David the farmer in Cornwall’s story about how his sheep once escaped because the fence was made from wood not metal is INPSIRING.

I would expect better programming for the time of the week when people are most watching! Monday morning daytime tv is better than this.

The news and soaps are highlights of the week. Not a fan of the One Show though.

no worst day of the week on TV for me

because if there is nothing on one of the days in the week i always have netflix, disney+ or some illegally downloaded films (yes we still do that, we're pirates :joker:)

Nicky91 22-01-2022 12:34 PM

currently my tv schedule

Mondays: 24Kitchen, basically Ainsley Harriott: The Food we Love, and James Martin from islands to highlands, later on evening watching back Big Brother ep, and then before bedtime bit of deal or no deal

Tuesdays: one ep of Legends of Tomorrow, big brother ep, bit of deal or no deal

Wednesdays: SnackMasters!!!!! :dance: :dance: Big Brother ep

Thursdays: depends wether there is europa league football or not, otherwise a movie

Fridays: usually movie night for now, until 18th February for me because then lets dance germany

Saturdays: as of tonight DSDS :dance2: later on watching back Big Brother liveshow

Sundays: watching back the ep of The Mole, and no BB on this day so i can watch an ep of my fave series (either Power Rangers Dino Fury or Dynasty at the moment)

Depends what you're interested in , I have found myself browsing YouTube or seeing what's on catch-up or Netflix.

TV has alot of repeats , even the same movies are constantly put on over and over again.

Nothing is wrong with that. On streaming. At a time to suit your own convenience! I'm not going to be told by some rich elites WHEN I must sit down and watch a show, I won't be controlled like that. Time for people to wake up!
