Advantages: Great shows

Disadvantages: A lot of repeats

WHAT IS IT:
It's pretty self explanatory really, Paramount is a comedy channel available via digital satellite and cable. It regularly shows many American sitcoms such as Sex and the City, Frasier and Two and a Half Men as well as repeats of British sitcoms and some standup shows.

GOOD POINTS:
There are 2 Paramount channels so you can almost always find some good comedy to watch at any time during the day. The schedule is quite varied but always features old favourites such as Frasier and Sex and the City. There are often weekends devoted to just one programme such as Frasier which make for great lazy Saturday afternoons. It often has some good standup from the Comedy Store which you don't get on many other channels as well as longer sets from comedians like Chris Rock. It's one of my favourite channels as I really like American sitcoms like M*A*S*H and programmes like this are constantly showing on Paramount.

BAD POINTS:
As the schedule is made up mostly of repeats of old series of sitcoms, there is quite a strong chance that you will have seen the episode before. It can get a bit samey after a while and some of the programmes are not as good as others.

Summary: One of my favourite entertainment channels
