i'll be damned!

lets start from the beginning. last monday i picked up tv week (as i always do on monday) and there on thursday 8:30 was jeffrey robertsons hypotheticals, but what do i see being advertised on tv this week none other than within the serpents grasp, so i think oh yeah, this isn't so bad, then i look in the tv guide, SCT Thursday 8:30 Stargate. i continuosly keep on seeing within the serpents grasp being advertised, so this monday i picked up tv week up and there was hypotheticals being scheduled again. so i finally get so confused that i decided to gice southern cross a call and ask what the hell is going on. they tell me a scheduling mistake, and it was episode 3/21 (crystal skull) being shown tonight. and they was showing the dvert for the serpentrs grasp, because they didn't have the promo for crystall skull, so they pulled one out of the archive.
and later in the conversation i find out that there has been a lot of phone calls to the southern cross ofices state wide wondering what the hell is going on. i'm not the only one! and they told me that stargate is a VERY HIGH RATING television show in tasmania, and they arn't just going to 'take it off' so then they tell me that they are continuing with season 4 after nemesis next week! cool. i did and didn't know that stargate is so popular, especially in Tasmania. so eight weeks to go until Tassie catches up with the most of the country. the promo for nemesis is really cool! so next week things get back to normal with:
Tamania: "Nemesis"
NSW, ACT, QLD, WA: "The Enemy Within" - yes they do get repeats until next rating season in feb.
SA, NT, VIC: "Urgo.
there's my 2 cents,

hehe, many problems like that around at the moment!

NT- A Hundred Days (or so the seven website advertises)

i just want to know if double Stargate will come on after this series of JAG finishes? (or maybe we will go into series 6 of JAG?)

 

[JAD]

i dunno if we will get double stargate when jag finishes. i doubt that they will show new episodes of JAG until the ratings season starts again. i'll email seven central (you always get a quick reply) and ask them.

 

[Martouf]

you found their email? I never can when i visit their site, can you post it in here or is it an online form thingo?

 

[JAD]

martouf, i'm talking about Seven Central (not quite sure if you knew that) they arnt owned by the Seven Network (Kerry Stokes) instead by Telecasters. their site is at http://www.sevencentral.com.au do you get channel 7 programs through seven central or central gts/bkn? the email address for seven central is: DarwinPrograms@telecasters.com.au you usually get a response within 5 minutes - 5 hours.
as i live in tassie and because of daylight savings there is a time delay of 1 hour for me.
the email for channel 7 is news@seven.com.au they don't reply unless it is for seven news. but at least your message gets read!

 

[Martouf]

hmm.... okay, i get central gts/bkn....
i'm still quite confused......

 

[JAD]

i see your online now..cool!
Seven central is an affiliate of the seven network like prime, southern cross, gwn, central gts/bkn. these channels are owned by different companies other than the seven network, so they have their own site, and email addresses. i only found out seven central's by looking in the contact us section

 

[Martouf]

hehe, i'm surprised you even know of central gts/bkn, i mean it's out in the middle of nowhere!

 

[Corzafa]

well gts/bkn is owned by the catolic church in our diocese and in another two years it will be all seven...

yeah i agree with martouf that shocks me that u know central... well maybe where we come from isnt that desolate

 

[JAD]

yeah, i know of about every tv station in Australia, i have a website full of station id's, promos etc. http://www.jadnet.net

 

[Corzafa]

Not a bad web site. Good content

 

[Martouf]

i don't quite understand ur site? i went to it last week and got confused.....

 

[JAD]

well my site is about various tv stations in australia, and i 'capture' station id's (the sequence before another program), adverts and all that stuff. my site has been around for about 1 and a half months, and i have had 400 hits! i only have a few stations on there at the moment, but i hope to expand soon. does central gts/bkn show the 'station id' with all the tv personalities (including richard dean anderson in front of the stargate) and the cool 'the one to watch song'? they should because it is totally cool! i hope this helps you understand my site better.

 

[Martouf]

i don't understand what a station id is? Is it the scenes at the start of an add break?

 

[JAD]

no before a tv show starts.
