Advantages: Some available on Demand to watch whenever, and great programming.
Disadvantages: Once 10/11pm comes, and you have a Mrs. turn it OFF!
My favourite channel by a mile. Bravo offers Pro Wrestling, alternative to the Sky Sports offering of WWE on a subscription.
Bravo is available to Virgin Media customers, as it is a Virgin Media Television owned channel, and is available to Sky.
Oringinally, it was thought that Bravo could have been pulled off the Sky network as a caridge deal was said to have been undercut by Sky, who offered a laughable amount to carry the channel, along with its sister channels, Living, Challenge, fTN (Now Virgin 1) however, the channels were kept on the Sky network as VMTV realised that the loss of Advertising revenue would seriously hurt the company.
The offering on Bravo is for your Typical young male to Middle Aged male. Shows such as Walker - Texas Ranger, Nightrider, TNA iMPACT, Hulk Hogans Celebrity Championship Wrestling, Dog the Bounty Hunter, High Speed Pursuits, Playr (a console and computer gaming show) and, of course, the late night offerings of Porn Week and other erotically tantalizing stuff for the male sex, makes this channel the regular favourite with many men across the United Kingdom.
The web portal at www.Bravo.co.uk is well layed out, and contains TV Listings, details on the shows being shown, a forum to discuss with fellow Bravo-ites, as well as links to other Virgin Media TV channels, and a dedicated section to the Bravo Babes.
Along with Star Trek and Walker - Texas Ranger, TNA iMPACT! is heavily advertised on the channel, but currently, the most popular have been Dog the Bounty Hunter, anything remotely involving Danny Dyer and Hulk Hogans Celebrity Championship Wrestling.
Summary: Brilliant shows, some nostalgia and something for all blokes.
