Repeats

[on:]

What's the worst repeated show ever?

For me it's got to be The Osbounbes on MTV.

[Reply #1 on:]

I don't understand the question. And I like the Osbournes. Its funny. You mean the worst show to watch repeats of?

[Reply #2 on:]

I mean where you watched one episode and then the episode been shown agian and agian till you get sick of it.

The Simpsons.  Sky and BBC swamp their schedules with the Simpsons, to the point where I can't be arsed watching it anymore.

[Reply #4 on:]

I dunno... most of the stuff I watch is stuff I can watch over and over again. I'll never get sick of NewsRadio reruns, f'rinstance...

The Simpson's on Sky.I must have seen 'You only move twice' more than twelve times.One of them was on Christmas day when the Simpsons have quite a good amount of Christmas Specials.

Oh and Big Brother.Come to think I about I hate all of Big Brother.Who agree's with me..?

[Reply #6 on:]

You are garunteed to see every episode of every MTV show 42,000 times before the next week's episode, really gets annoying (especially when it's all that's on)

Big Brother is horrible. Family Guy slammed them once when Lois is sick of Peter's jealousy & they see a marriage counselor, who suggests to tape the every day happenings to find what's wrong & Peter says "Hey, it'll be just like big Brother...... except somebody'll be watching"

I also only watch re-runs of shows/ episodes I like.

I agree, I rarely watch it anymore unless they are showing new episodes, it is on far too much.

Every show on every channel on every Australian cable/satellite TV network. Waste of time and money, all of them.

I would hardly say 5 nights a week was swamping their schedule. It's the fact that they show the same 3 or 4 seasons over and over (maybe they're not allowed to show earlier ones...?)

They keep changing the right to the serieses.

Sky has the right to S2-6 and 11 or 12+
BBC has 7-10 or 11
Fuck knows who has the right to series 1.

But Fred is right. BBC show 5 episodes a week. Sky show about 17 episodes a week. 22 episodes of the Simpsons a week is way too much. I don't even think there are that many soap episodes a week. Actually come to think of it... 

Watching Jackass repeats isn't funny any more. Same with Trigger Happy TV, although I think Dom Joly stopped the channels showing it too often because he knew it would get annoying after a while. The stunts just aren't funny when you know what's going to happen.

I agree. there are just too much Simpsons on I only watch if the old episodes are good and watched the new episode on Sundays

I still watch Simpsons on BBC2. I wish they's show more new eps. C4 will show loads of new eps when they start showing it. But they may edit it so much.

[Reply #14 on:]

I wish the BBC would show seasons 2-5 of The Simpsons. I found a tape with loads of them on the other day. 

[Reply #15 on:]

The Simpsons reruns should be run in a staggered order as follows:

1st first season episode, then 1st second season ep, etc. all the way up. Then the second episode of each season. Then continue. When you run out of one season, just leave that one out of rotation. When all (just under) 300 episodes air, start over.

Simpsons rule all and I will enjoy every episode I see until I die, blasphemers!!.

I'm sick of Friends repeats, but they seem to have died down a bit.

[Reply #17 on:]

You guys are lucky.  FOX 55 (worst affiliate in the state) does not show any episodes of The Simpsons except for the new ones.  I used to get it off Green Bay 11 times a week about 3 years ago before our cable company switched to this one.

Also, Full House gets shown way too much.

Never though I'd EVER use a Cubert-Like quote.

Blind Date repeats are terrible too. Why do they show the same episode everyweek? Man picks girl via corny lines. Go on date. Come back and insult each other. Repeat with genders reversed 

[Reply #20 on:]

I think I have to say Friends...I've seen all the episodes maybe 4000000000000 times. At least.

[Reply #21 on:]

That must be Pokemon on FOX KIDS. It's like first ep 01, then ep 02, then ep 03, then ep 04, and then ep 01 again.

[Reply #22 on:]

There is this commercial channel here, and they must have repeated The Simpsons over 16 times.

[Reply #23 on:]

I was suprised to find on my tape Xmas story which I taped 2 years ago on channel 7. Watched it so many times now.

Between them Sky and BBC show around 20 episodes a week.  I'd call that swamping their schedule.

[Reply #25 on:]

Robot Wars on BBC2 is terrible and gets repeated the same night, then again the following day on BBC Choice - then you get the earlier series rerun on a daily basis.  I'm thinking cheap show with great merchandising potential.

Gotta agree with Dadbot.

But if you don't have Sky then you're not swamped. Just think yourself lucky!

I really don't watch TV enough any more to get bored of shows. i just watch stuff I think might me good. That said theyt do play Star Trek TNG allot on BBC2 but I can't be bothered to watch so i put on one of my Futurama DVD's 

[Reply #29 on:]

I don't mind the current episodes of The Simpsons that BBC2 are repeating, as they are quite funny and have some funny lines 

[Reply #30 on:]

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade has been on 3 times in the past week, twice on Sci Fi.  I love the movie, but I mean, come on now, people . . .

And what's with Sci Fi showing Braveheart?

[Reply #31 on:]

Cuz Braveheart's all science-fictiony and stuff. Remember that scene when he flies the spaceship and uses it's photon beams to attack the English castle? I admit, it's been a while since I saw Braveheart last, but...still...

[Reply #32 on:]

Just felt that I should say Braveheart is one of the top 5 movies ever made, it should be showed on every channel possible.

[Reply #33 on:]

You obviously haven't seen many films then!   

[Reply #34 on:]

BBC2 are showing repeats of season 2 of the Simpsons next week. I really cannot remember the story lines 

[Reply #35 on:]

my worst repeat crap has to be old re-runs of the simpsons = annoying 

[Reply #36 on:]

"Armageddon" 3 times within 2 months, on the same channel, as a "movie of the evening" (no early afternoon-repeats). What are they trying to prove? Make us believe it's a good movie? Not in this lifetime.
