Currently they have replaced All Saints with Brothers and Sisters and get this while Packed to the Rafters is off the air they now have Greys Anatomy.No offence to fans of the latter but lt is the start of the working week and for those of us who work in a hospital or the medical profession how many of us actually want to watch what we do on Tuesday Nights.It is too heavy compared to a feel good family friendly drama.

I would rather Seven Show a 1990 to 1999 or 2000 to 2009 sitcom of some sort at 5pm weekdays.
Even How I met your Mother would be a huge improvement.Anyone got any better ideas please send them to your local Channel 7 Studio in your home state/city.

Hi. It’s just passed 5.00pm and dismay and the feeling of being robbed has overtaken my thoughts to the point that tears have entered the fray. During the week, my thoughts have used 5.00pm as a light at the end of each torturous day, as I am housebound due to severe depression, anxiety and the physical impairments from a workcover accident. I literally hang on to this time each day, as evening brings respite and with it, tv shows that are of a quality high enough to distract me from my worries and lift my spirits with laughter. So, imagine the sadness and sense of loss I felt when tonight, the brilliant, funny and heartwarming M.A.S.H didn’t appear before me to take me away from the mostly miserable existance that is my lot in life, hopefully not for the rest of it. This unique and classic show has been ripped from our screens without care or consultation, leaving a void that certainly cannot be filled, especially by Another cooking show. Aren’t there enough of these already? Earlier today, I was dealt the first blow, by finding out chanel 9 has replaced Two and A Half Men with the masochistic show ridiculously named Funniest Home Videos. It still escapes me how humanity can find humour in small children falling over and people hurting themselves. I consoled myself with the fact that I have several seasons on dvd to fullfill my need to laugh and forget. Then, I had to suffer a bigger blow by losing M.A.S.H, chanel 7 being my only source of this wonderfully funny show, along with my 5.00pm relief time. Why? Bring back M.A.S.H. in the same timeslot.

There are so many classic UK and US shows that aren’t available on DVD and/or that haven’t been on TV for years and years. I’m not a big fan of M*A*S*H* but I think it’s wearing a bit thin (maybe even on fans) because it’s just been on for so long. There’s even lots of great classic Aussie shows they could screen. Aussie TV was much better then.

M*A*S*H you can never get rid of- its timeless in its comedy.

Any chance one of the networks could appoint a programmer for the midnight to 4am slot?

Some of us out here are just a teeeeensy bit over Proactiv Solution.

Ta.

Oh, and agreed with those above about MASH. But then, I never got what was meant to be funny about that show. The theme tune, to me, has always been a change-the-channel alarm.

Can’t Seven just think of a new game show for the 5pm slot. I remember watching decent shows such as All Star Squares and Hot Streak years ago. Also one called Concerntration.Would be nice to have something else at 5 that isn’t Mash.

Time to kill MASH.

Someone has to mash MASH. But seriously it’s been in that slot for far too long and although it’s a classic comedy, it stopped being funny a long time ago.

It’s like hearing a song that you like on radio and then growing to hate it because it’s been overplayed a million times.

mash has been on pretty much non stop since late 2004 in the slot (save for 6 months of wheel)… please let it finish soon!

The first smart thing that 7 should do is fix up 5:30, in Queensland. Deal can be shafted to 5. It often gets beaten by local programming. People these days are either tuning into Extra and then watch 7 News or tuning into Extra and watching Nine News. If 7 puts a alternative, it may aid their ratings, it may crash and burn, but at least it is a attempt at fighting the knight with a dragon.
