Advantages: Tomorrows Hollyoaks, every day at seven!

Disadvantages: Friends, again, and again, and again.

E4 is a part of channel 4. It's one of their 39847 channels. Okay, well it's one of their nine channels. Either the way, it's more channels than they should have, as they can't seem to muster up anything to put on them.
It's a freeview channel. It's free, however, only if you have freeview. If, instead, you are on the basic virgin package you won't recieve it. This pretty much means you're better off buying a freeview box, than having the basic virgin channels, for the record.

Don't get me wrong, I love channel four. I'm watching four for at least three hours a day (or at least, it's on, though I tend to be online at the same time) E4 though, well, the best thing about E4 is that I can watch tomorrows hollyoaks, today! It's on at 7pm, straight after 'todays' hollyoaks on channel 4.
I do have a considerable obsession with Hollyoaks, so E4 does somewhat make my life better.

E4 has improved itself of late, by actually starting to have programmes on in the day time, but....What a load of crap! You have E4 music zone, followed by a ton of scrubs, one tree hill, and friends.

They have been replaying friends for AT LEAST a year....Two episodes a day...series one through to ten, then starting again, series one to ten....
I mean come on! Is that necessary? Not only do we get those two episodes a day, we get to watch them twice! At five pm until 6pm, then we can view them again at 8! Aren't we lucky?

Occasionally E4 will have a decent series, such as Skins, and the new Deadset, which I think looks okay, but generally it's full of re-runs of the same four or five programmes, and it never seems to change.

The good thing about the channel though, is that when there is nothing on TV, there's normally something bearable on E4.

Summary: I used to like friends Y'know...Til I started watching E4
