NOT COOL. Glee! Once Upon a Time! The River! Ringer! What THE HELL is M-Net and M-Net Series thinking?? Seriously.


What the @#$&! Here is how it looks: It looks like M-Net doesn't really have any control or actual order when it comes to scheduling, structure and what it actually wantsGlee, Once Upon a Time, The River - how is this for erratic retardation!

Glee is suddenly moving off of Vuzu (DStv 123) and to M-Net Series (DStv 110) for its 3rd season, and immediately, suddenly from this coming Monday 30 January at 19:30, while M-Net is suddenly having the shows Once Upon a Time as well as The River! Oh. And did I mention today is Monday and suddenly Glee is starting this coming Monday. Who does M-Net and M-Net Series think can keep up with this ''a-move-a-minute'' mess? And what professional type of broadcaster (or is it unprofessional??) kind of people programme like this? So ... haphazardly?

By the way: I asked M-Net several times at the end of last year to please let me know whether the pay TV broadcaster had these shows (as well as a list of others). There wasn't a word. Now suddenly M-Net has these new shows (great ones) but are dumping them on M-Net Series instead of actually putting them on M-Net (where they should be in my little humble opinion).

How on earth if you're M-Net do you just suddenly put Ringer on M-Net Series starting 15 February at 21:30, start The River on M-Net Series on 21 February at 19:30 and Once Upon a Time on 25 February at 20:30? What a purely pathetic start to the year.

It's tragic that M-Net (the company) would not actually place great shows where they belong (on the M-Net channel and M-Net HD where great shows are seen in HD and on a premium channel where they belong). Secondly its sub-standard bad how willy-nilly short-notice, seemingly now-here-then-there M-Net shuffles shows around that it possibly got for free - since I really can't see how you can possibly work this way with premium TV content you actually pay for.

Disgusting.
