| 1294259 | 2012-08-12 23:03:00 | I think their coverage has been pretty good for Free-To-Air IMO. Yeah there is adds but you still get to see the WHOLE thing. Like the Opening - I checked the list of countries coming in and when they returned from the adds it was the next alphabetic country as per list found online. | lordnoddy (3645) | ||
| 1294260 | 2012-08-13 07:57:00 | I recorded it so i can watch it tonite and skip thru the ads. Besides, why aren't you at work like real people at that time?? Not everyone has work commitments 9-5 monday to Friday especially when you work is tourism based and Farming. ;) | coldfront (15814) | ||
| 1294261 | 2012-08-13 08:04:00 | But you forget the BBC don't have ads Not so much the fact that there was ads just more the fact the ad breaks so long and so frequent. One thing that I have always found annoying about TV in this country is how the adverts are timed for the interesting parts of a fillm for example and how a good film can end up being twice as long because of them. |

| 1294263 | 2012-08-13 08:50:00 | Yea, the coverage is pretty sucky . No time spent focusing on the NZ athletes . So you think a live TV coverage broadcast to billions should focus on our Kiwi athletes? Get real . I am not a George Michael fan, I thought you would like to know . The queer git . No, I don't care about your opinion or what his sexual orientation is (as long as I'm not directly implicated) . Like him or not, his was a class act . Well done London 2012! Good to know, neither am I a George fan Homophobia and bigotry is starting to become too prevalent in this forum . I think their coverage has been pretty good for Free-To-Air IMO . Yeah there is adds but you still get to see the WHOLE thing . Like the Opening - I checked the list of countries coming in and when they returned from the adds it was the next alphabetic country as per list found online . Heh! Some objective opinion! Thanks lordnoddy! Not so much the fact that there was ads just more the fact the ad breaks so long and so frequent . One thing that I have always found annoying about TV in this country is how the adverts are timed for the interesting parts of a fillm for example and how a good film can end up being twice as long because of them . I initially thought the same as you, coldfront . But giving Sky / Prime their due, the number of intrusions became more infrequent as we got into the meatier part of the show . All in all, a good show and Prime was up to it . I'm reminded of the adage, "there's no such thing as a free lunch . " If the price was but a few intrusions, then that was fair enough in my opinion . |

He is good if you are into a racket with about as much melody as my stomach . |

Well done London 2012! . Meh, Ignoring his sexuality ( having said that, perhaps more singers should suck on the salami, it seems that being gay enhances the abilities of frontmen, supergays if you will) he is a lowlife in every sense of the word . Fame and talent aside, he is drug ****ed and always up to dodgy crap . |
