Default Which Channel Do You Prefer?
I did this a while ago when it was first officially announced that Big Brother would be coming back to C5... Unfortunatly Channel 4 won. Just wondered whether after all the news on BB and after how bitter C4 have been with their snipey comments if people's opinion have changed?

For me I prefer C5, I hardly watch C4 apart from Chatty Man, 8 Out Of 10 Cats and Chris Moyles' Quiz Night, and there are a few good programmes on C5 like The Walking Dead, OK!TV and BB

Channel 5

LOL I remember this being asked in April or May and C4 winning it.

George make this thread again in like 2 weeks and see what people answer depending on how CBB goes.

Weird thinking CBB will be over in 2 Weeks.

Channel 4 because they actually show some decent shows. The only one with potential on Channel 5 is BB and they may well ruin that, we don't know.

Forgetting about Big Brother briefly,

Channel 4 shows good comedy but aside from that its mostly just horribly dreadful documentries and 'real life' ****e. Embarrassing Bodies, dont get me started.

Most of Channel 5s original programming is awful though and the afternoon film...
But they show some good films in primetime slots and I love all the US drama: CSI, The Mentalist, Law and Order, Castle, The Walking Dead etc.

I've voted Channel 4 because I currently watch far more on Channel 4 than 5, but clearly once BB starts I will be tuning into channel 5 much more.

Channel 4 is clearly the better channel even though it's a shadow of it's former self. It's glory days were Brookside, WWF Heat, the filthies after dark, and those weird red triangle movies they showed.

C4 is clearly still the more watched channel (despite some made up figures from some noob last night) but c5 has spent millions and seems to have clawed a little ground back but not much.
Im not arsed really they are both slightly indie channels battling for audience share which produces some good tv for both of them.
Do you think either bbc or itv would play host to seven dwarves or big brother??? no they wouldnt
They are both cool channels.

In terms of BB - Channel 5 because they actually seem to give two sh!ts about the show.

But in general C4. There's so much stuff I watch on there. Simpsons, News, the documentaries they do (usually anyways).

Channel 4. I do like quite a few programmes on Channel 4 but there is hardly anything on Channel 5 that I watch.
