Like JA Goneaux, I too have my anger with what I'm being sold. The cable is going VERY BASIC and I'm back to renting DVDs of movies and TV series I want to watch. ALL of these stations profess to be about one thing, then pull-out a crappy library of non-sense and charge me for it. <BR/><BR/>I believe with folks tightening their belts, the entertainment industry is not the only one who will feel the heat. Finally, everyone is waking up (myself included) that ANY INDUSTRY providing a service or product is going to have to raise the bar. In other words, old fashion ideas like 'earning you customer' and 'keeping your customer' should be the mindset. If not, good riddance.Trevor B.

Well I gave up cable, and TCM and AMC, but I was told that Showcase Diva and Action and DrivIn and IFC and Scream would have tons of movies.<BR/><BR/>So, lets look at 8PM next Tuesday:<BR/><BR/>IFC: The Rawside of...(i.e., a TV show)<BR/><BR/>Scream: Blackout (at least its a real movie, but its followed by Supernatural, a TV show at 9)<BR/><BR/>DriveIn: Xena. Are you kidding me? Been awhile since I've been to a drive in, but XENA?!?<BR/><BR/>Action Showcase: Earth Final Conflict. Another TV show, and a pretty bad one with pretty bad action. And the movie is "Airplane 2". Action? Huh?<BR/><BR/>Diva Showcase: Blue Murder. Are you SERIOUSLY kidding me?!?! And its followed by Cold Squad.<BR/><BR/>So for 4 channels, 2 hours of prime time, supposedly showing movies, and we get 6 hours of television shows out of 10 hours. Dumb. Just dumb.<BR/><BR/>Gee, what do Xena, Earth:Final Conflict, Blue Murder and Cold Squad all have in common? Oh, yeah, they're re-runs from Global. <BR/><BR/>Doesn't Global already have TWO re-run stations (TVtropolis and DejaView?)<BR/><BR/>And their website has up-to-date news...if your calendar says 2006...<BR/><BR/>So, guys, I would imagine I'm not the only one canceling soon. And that means you won't have to pay Canwest any money from me. Which should REALLY improve their bottom line...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34798599.post-73408202620663042092009-01-16T07:41:00.000-05:002009-01-16T07:41:00.000-05:00Excellent post, Jim.
