Default A disgrace.. Two & a Half Men GONE!!

If it's not bad enough having Top Gear taken off for 2 weeks due to SBS thinking we'd rather watch Kazakhstan Vs Tajikistan in Syncronised beach friggin Polo-Soccer.... Now Channel 9 has committed the ultimate traversty by taking Two and A Half Men off!..... What in the hell are they thinking??? : :

I don't watch TV really but when I see it, this show is by far the best on the air.

My whole family is going to be very disappointed.

I must be honest and say I have barely been past the theme tune that I would rather gnaw my arm off than listen too. But yes I too think it's absolute rubbish.

I've got all the season on my comp. Great show.

Even made better that it's based loosely on Charlie Sheen's real life and his "ladies man" ways. (5000 women rumoured to have slept with).

No - with programs like this on it is no surprise that sources such as *Channel Bit Torrent* are becoming more popular. Choose what you watch and when - with a little forward planning. Pay TV is paying for the privilege of watching 10 times the amount of rubbish that is on free to air - and you still get ads!.

I come home from work and the only stuff that is on is ACA, Today tonight, Neighbours or Home and Away in the early evening timeslot. Then there's channel 10 flogging reruns of the dead horse that is Friends. The Simpsons is about the only thing worth watching at that time. People ask me why I don't get a big screen LCD TV - probably because I don't want to spend $1000+ on a TV I hardly watch for 5 days a week. I suppose if I switch my brain off and not think about what I'm watching I could manage.

The Olympics is watchable in portions, there's no way I'd sit down for the whole night to watch.

Channel BT or Usenet FTW!.

Don't have to put up with dodgy programming decisions by the networks. Then there is the dodgy choice of timeslots in many cases as well.

It's time some people started plugging into Channel BT.

Top Gear and 2 and a Half Men?! Full Top Gear episode and addless 2 and a Half Men FTW! Available for download only a couple of hours after airing in the US.

Lab Rats and Big Bang Theory are great ~25 minute time wasters as well.
