It says on the Go! website blog that Gossip Girl will return in three weeks (from last Thursday) with double episodes.

Is it any wonder that GO! treats viewers with contempt, after all it is Channel 9 controlling it. The same network which dumped Seinfeld back in early 90’s (thankfully Ch.10 bought the rights) yet, this year have been trying to cash in on the ‘Seinfeld Reunion’ related episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm (CYE) by blatantly misleading viewers by advertising their broadcasts of these episodes as ‘The Seinfeld Reunion’. Unfortunately for those viewers who haven’t watched CYE before, it all seems disjointed and nothing makes sense. Is it any wonder that some people resort to watching their favourite shows by alternate methods

I can’t believe GO! did this. I was Loving it and then it took Weeds off.

For what? Two weeks?

GO! has lost all credibility for me now.

Thanks for that information.

What happened to “The Hills” and “Gossip Girl”… no news on these shows returning. ?

They fit the channel nicely I think.

This season’s Bachelor is Brad Womack, 34, a sincere, sexy, successful, self-made entrepreneur who may be the series’ hottest guy yet. Womack moves to his Malibu bachelor pad and prepares to search for the woman of his dreams while travelling to the mansion via limousine, the ladies get their first good look at their competition.

Bachelorette follows.

Another interesting thing, ABC 2 is now up to Series 2 of the Wire… So I guess people who want a fix of the show can switch there instead.

Abc 1 and 2 are reliable channels for programming,

This is great news, I am pleased they are coming back soon.

I am still pi**ed off that they took them off just for ratings….

The Bachelor is back ???? Only 1 series from 2007 was played out on go! this year in full then they went on to the 2009 Bachelorette, though I do recall when the Bachelorette 2009 series premiered a while back that they put the Bachelor on on Friday afternoon for 1 episode.

Are you sure that you don’t mean the Bachelorette is back 10:30pm Tuesday December 1?

@mikeys – I agree with everything you say and you couldn’t have said it better !

I sometimes wonder whether Channel Nine programmers are subject to a lot more pressure from higher ups than those at 7 and 10. I am well aware of the need of the commercial networks to be ratings conscious. This is why I don’t complain about cancellations and schedule changes of low rating shows, even if I have been watching them. Having said that, I fear that these excessive schedule changes may do more harm than good.

I think they need to realise that it isn’t just TV nerds who notice these things. Regular viewers who have been following these programs will be irate as well, and even though they won’t decide to launch a boycott against the network, they will still associate their negative feelings of disappointment and anguish with the Go! channel. This can only counteract the positive associations Nine are trying to build up through flashy network promos and the like.

Gossip Girl will probably be back the week after as Drop Dead Diva will be finished after the triple episodes.

Good, as it should be.

F*** you GO!, and more so Nine, for screwing around your audience for a measly 2 weeks of end of year ratings.

If you continue to screw ppl around, people will go elsewhere, and rightfully so.

Keep things consistent for 3 month periods; play shows and series’ from start to finish, in order; no exceptions…

Build an audience; build your shows; FFS have a go at the dregs that the Nine channel rejects…
