I think TV pretty much sucks all the time, personally.

Well, it's only 2 am here, so I wouldn't know.

The music channels actually seem to play good music at 5AM.

I think it's supposed to suck. That's how you're supposed to know it's time to go to bed. I'm nursing a render.

Well, if I owned a TV broadcasting station, I don't think I'd be putting my most expensive programs in the 5 am slot, but that's just me. :p

Hey, it works fine for me. OK, TV might suck, but it does anyway. Radio improves a hundredfold. You actually hear songs you haven't heard before. *nods* It's true. Hey, where are you going? :p

Hey, I agree, I've got FM hooked up to my PC right now. :p

TV sucks in the wee hours which is a shame because if you had something decent on you would pretty much have a monopoly of all the viewers, I'm sure truck drivers an shift workers buy stuff they see on adverts too...

Just not enough I guess...

Here's an idea, the fishtank show! It's all you need TV for anyway, something to occupy the eyes.

Nope. It's not just you. And it seems to start earlier than 5 AM! Heh!

It's 11:42pm now and the only thing that was watchable today was the simpsons but that was at 6pm.

But as a night owl, I think Australian tv execs, nay, tv execs everywhere need to be catering for the insomniacs of the world.
Some nights I go into a trance watching informercials and snap out at the time that Kenneth Copeland is on and that's when I think that bed is a good option...and was probably a good option many hours ago.

Where I live, at about 4 o'clock there is Infomercials on the 3 main channels. There are two other commercial free channels, one has nothing on, they just show a weather map and play shit music, and the last channel has really shit music clips running all night.
