I caught a couple of eps of Parks and Recreation whilst in the US for a few weeks, and for me personally I was very disappointed. it rips off the Office in almost every respect (which may not be a bad thing if pulled off ok) but the whole thing just feels a bit awkward. I’m crossin gmy fingers it improves. Great to see 30 Rock as the lead in though.

Gee – what an incredible vote of confidence in Parks and Rec! 11pm

Deal’s a dead duck in Queensland. I’m expecting summer will hurt Deal’s ratings, especially if Hot Seat intends to run new eps.

David, what do you know about ‘Bones’ over summer?

Hey Andy,
You appear to imply that it’s unusual for a show to be funded.
Way to make an outlandish statement dude.

I hope Ch. 7 will show season 3 of the UK crime show Lewis sometime.

It’s been MIA this year – or perhaps they’re waiting for Season 4 to start so they can show series 3 & 4 back to back like they did with Series 1 & 2?

Louis is fab, but they only have limited eps, and some have been quite old.

Oh and Louis is back, but at 11.30pm. Seven you drongos this would rate well earlier! Nothing is better than people taking the micky out of yanks without them even noticing.

11.30pm? Might as well not even put it on. At least my favourite show The First 48 is back. They should however put it on at 9.30pm as it’s a terrific show and could probably build an audience.

If you have not watched it catch an episode of The First 48.

Community would fit 7 so well. I can’t wait to see that! P&R should be great!

I don’t think the problem is the lack of content its the timeslot some of the comedies have been given and considering they have a 2nd channel they could have been given a decent timeslot.

Also im expecting a lot of repeats from seven.

I could have sworn I noted that there are more titles to come.

I know what channel I wont be watching over summer! too bad Ive seen all the Sunny in Philly eps, which btw they could at least give that a chance at like 9:30 or 10pm; its hilarious!

Did 7 get the rights to Community? that’s another funny show.. why cant they put that on?

Also how about a FTA station picking up Chelsea Lately for weeknights!

30 Rock is a great show. Why you wouldnt use one of your 2 channels to build an audience over summer is beyond me.

30 Rock and Parks & Rec from 10:30? While Gary Unmarried is on at 7:30? Pfft. Make that Gary Unwatched.
