Television coverage bitch thread

[RussellEbertHandball]

The coverage of the x-country in equestrian was terrible by the end, what happened to showing the Aussies??? The last two they should hardly any of

And the commentary wasnt too crash hot either.

Wilko keeping to his gold medal best standards then.

 

[Isandula]

Going by the commentary I don't think they had a choice of the feed they got and they were expecting more coverage than what they got as well.

Wast really meaning that, its the things they said, laughable at times. Im sure whether they knew much or where trying to appease the spectators that didnt know much. Im hoping its the former.

Well I dont know a lot but the conflicting opinions of the commentators didn't enlighten me one bit so you're probably right.

So back to Handball I go, which is lucky because it was bloody good game.

I am getting sick of all of the TV news stations saying that an Aussie is "going for gold" today/tonight. It is really boring - of course they want gold, along with every other athlete. It is starting to annoy me.

Channel Seven: Stay tuned, after the break we go to the beach volleyball.

Switch to SBS: This is Beijing 2008, and next up... beach volleyball.

Why does it have to involve Australians? I dont get that, I want to watch the world compete. I want to see the best from around the world, not just watch Australians win and then not see the sports Australia are no good in.

The Brazil vs Hungry women's Handball game was epic this arvo.

yea..all well n good but if you put it on CH7 now they are ****ing showing the swimming finals & heats again...

 

[Drummond]

Would be nice to see some live action for once instead of showing repeats AGAIN.

Hewitt is playing, it's 4-4, at least finish off the set maybe instead of showing and discussing repeats.

 

[legend166]

Wait, Hewitt is playing? WHAT? 7 have been showing swimming repeats for the last 45 minutes. WHAT THE HELL?

 

[ManWithNoName]

Are we allowed to offer honest opinions in this thread again yet?

What is 7s obsession of repeating things 8000 times rather than showing sports that're on right now?

I KNOW, i'd rather watch sailboarding or whatever it is !

 

[ManWithNoName]

Or, say, the tennis in which Lletyon Hewitt's currently playing?

 

[richmond fanatic]

Ahhh SBS's first blunder. They're showing boxing. Not cool

Although they've spanked 7 in the coverage so far with their unbiased coverage.

OMG, 7 showed the relay again! !!!!!!!!!! Whats their obsession??!?!!?!?

 

[Bombers_Forever]

7 . Enough with the replays - the highlights in the news are good enough. We don't need to see the same race 5000 times. There is plenty of live sport going on now, even if there are no Aussies.

And Griggs

 

[Drummond]

Ohhh another Channel 7 Olympic update! And better yet, it's REPEAT of the Olympic update!

 

[richmond fanatic]

Are there any other sports apart from Equestrian you imbeciles!!!!!!!!

 

[richmond fanatic]

Anyone enjoy the water polo? Tune into sbs.

 

[ManWithNoName]

And now they're showing the athletes song. AGAIN.

Just when you think they can't get any worse...

 

[Alpha1]

This is disgraceful by CH 7, they have ****ed up the footy and now they are ****ing up the Olympics. Well done CH 7 you have ruined it for us all.

 

[legend166]

Oh look, the swim team song again. No one cares.

Lleyton won the first set.

We should march on the Channel 7 offices.

 

[Bombers_Forever]

And now 7 are showing that stupid Olympic song again. The water polo is more interesting!

 

[Juddism]

1300737507 is the C7 hotline for the Olympics, ring and complain loudly! this is a ****ing joke.

Wasnt for long and wasnt a bad match.

Probably just a fill in before this water polo starts which is probably the sport I least enjoy but better than the promos (read extra ads) and replays that 7 wont stop running.

 

[richmond fanatic]

The diving is O.......K......i guess
