So, what am I missing round about now? Are there any good programmes at night? The Discovery Channel forensic detective shows get a bit boring

Late night DSTV

DSTV is getting quite boring actually... end of story..
So many channels , but nothing good to watch..
They took away our Sci-fi channel. wich was all that was keeping DSTV alive.
When it comes to movies, they keep repeating 20-30movies over 4 channels (Mnet, Movie magic 1 , Movie magic 2, and ActionX.) and even of that 20-30 movies at least 10-15 movies are repeats of the previous month. *only different time slots, and different channels*
Sports... hmmm we don't even want to go into the rugby talks... and the cricket... well.. we are trying to make something of it...
The rest is just cartoons, history channels, and cooking channels.. and then MTV.
That basically sums up DSTV on a Half A4 page.... maybe less

Yep the biggest mistake and the greatest loss, it was definitely the best channel.
I remember them doing a poll about which channel was the most popular, and the sci fi channel was no1, then 3 - 6 months later, they can the channel, what the f....?
The reason given at the time was "it was not financially viable" , read between the lines and you get, "we are to cheap to pay for the viewing rights to the new programs".
A..holes!

Well on Movie Magic it is Notting Hills from 8 til 10, then if you want to watch it again you can. You dont even need an PVR to record it or rewind you just go to Movie Magic 2, its on from 10 til 12. 
Oh on Mnet its the 30min local productions...
Only thing I can find is on 54 - Leno and Conan
