Probably mainly of interest to Brits.

Channel 5 has Buffy Season 1 episode 1 scheduled for Saturday at 6.40 PM, after Charmed. Presumably they're going to run the whole season and/or all 7 seasons. Nice to introduce the series to people who were too young first time round, I suppose, but Buffy with advertising breaks - blechhh...

C4 has a "T4 Special" about Constantine on Sunday at 1.30 PM - given that it's in the kids slot I suspect it won't be very good, but might be worth taking a look.

But ad breaks are part of the timing of shocks in Buffy. If you loose those you get those weird repititions around missing breaks.

Desperate Housewives is even more desperate in this respect. Channel 4 seem to have adopted US ad breaks so that whilst the programme lasts 42 minutes it takes 65 to show on TV. Most of my friends tape it and watch it later. Oh for Tivo!
