I've just about given up with the C4 forum. On another note, C4 have lost ANOTHER programme to five. On top of Alias and Dawsons Creek (both of which were messed about with) five now have Angel. What C4 did to Angel is, IMHO, worse than the way they treated The West Wing. Here is the article: media.guardian.co.uk/broadcast/story/0,7493,955235,00.html

I find myself visiting the channel 4 forums less and less now and the reasons are twofold. 1) All those third watch people who are on it 24/7. I honestly don't even know what third watch is, apart from the west wing and football i don't actually watch that much tv, although from the title i would guess third watch is possibly about a lighthouse keeper? 2)I tried quite a few times to put up a post with this forum's address on it but every time channel 4 have deleted it. I am furious with them. In fact, i might well go and post one up again right now, just coz i'm a bit of a rebel!! d

;D I did post a message about Third Watch spam and this the alternative. Clearly the immature and those with too much time on their hands read it and interpreted it as a battle cry. That message isn't up on those boards anymore. That's to be expected, because you've a 50/50 chance of having your posts put into a queue to be inspected before posted, by a 'moderator'. Channel 4 don't know how to please. They can't schedule, they can't maintain a decent forum. I like Graham Norton but even I can see five nights a week, 30+ weeks a year is stretching all those elements that made his Friday night show so good. Indeed let's rebel

I tried to rebel but every time i put a post up it was deleted a few minutes later. Thats if it even got past the bloody moderator thing, so i ended up just putting up a post saying that channel 4 suck. I feel my simple civil rights are being removed from me by the tyrannical oppression that channel four appear to think is democracy. The regime here is far more fair-minded ;D d

Can someone please tell me what the attraction of Third Watch is ? Given the amount of postings on the C4 forum, I thought that it must be halfway decent.
Boy did I get that wrong..........
Then again, having seen the "quality" of the show, it explains the level of postings on the C4 forum right know.
We have the moral and intellectual high ground. Let's stay there.

More basic than that, can anyone tell me what Third Watch is? Obviously it's some sort of TV show, but I've never come across it.

Okay it's occurring to me in the wee small hours of this morning. If Third Watch fans want a forum, why doesn't one of them just make one so the rest of the fans can shut the f**k up? Honestly. I noticed a niche in the market and made this place. I'll keep promoting it and hopefully more people will join and actually stay to post.

Hurrah to that!
I don't know what Third Watch is either, but I joined this forum and C4's on the same day and soon made a decision as to where my loyalties should lie. C4 was a good read initially, but only because it had been going for a while. From everything I've heard since about them, and from the quality of material on this site, I think it's much better that people offer their support to The West Wing Forum UK.

I keep trying to post stuff up on C#####L #, but they keep deleting it! I'm just getting fed up with it. I'm trying to promote this place but C#####L # must have a tab on me because just about every second word i write seems to have to be checked by a moderator, another way of saying that they're not going to post my post! I'm sorry mr president, i didn't realise that my use of the name of the channel of which we must not speak was offending people. I will try to tone down my somewhat colourful language from now on!!!! d

You may say channel 4, channel four, C4.... anything really, free speech for all. That said, if anybody alleges something that is not true - such as they have vile pictures of the vice president giving a goat a blowjob, then that's different. But only when they've failed to show the evidence (because we all like to have a laugh).... Christ, I've eaten a whole packet of Haribo sweets within an hour

I've decided to give up with the C4 forum - I like it here. By the way love the ticker thing across the bottom of the screen. Sums it up to perfection

I am also loving the ticker: only spotted it today!
They (C4) don't have any jurisdiction here at all, do they?

With all the Channel 4 battering that goes on I wouldn't have thought so
