Hello all and welcome to another of my opinions. I've been browsing DooYoo categories for hours now cos I just know theres a new opinion bursting to come out of me, I've made several attempts at starting new opinions on new subjects (mostly in the Television section) but have gotten nowhere too far yet. Well, I've gotten this far I may aswell try to carry on.

Before I get to the core of this opinion, I must tell you, I am addicted to the internet, anytime the internet is free and I'm awake I'll be on the internet, but unfortunately I have a rather rubbish internet provider, in 'Tiscali' formerly known as 'Lineone'. We pay a lump sum of £13.99 a month for the internet to be free after 6.00 pm and before 7.00 AM and it's always free at weekends, which is just not good enough for me, what am I supposed to do on those boring summer holidays when the internet costs money all day, or when I come from school and have to wait 2 whole hours until the internet is free? Well, that's where 'Trouble' comes in, the saviour of my boredom. Great shows like That 70's Show (my favourite show), One On One, Two Guys and a Girl and The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air have kept me from those deadly boring times. In this opinion, I will give you both, the pro's and con's of Trouble TV and a small review for a few of it's main shows (or maybe my personal favourites) So here we go...

=============================================
That 70's Show
=============================================
The best American comedy going today, in my opinion, sure Friends is good, even great, but since series 4/5 the novelty has worn off, and is not the show it once was. On the other hand, That 70's Show is relatively new to the world of comedy and has had a very nice welcoming. The show is about 6 high school kids living in Point Place, Wisconsin, USA in the mid 1970's. The main star is Eric whose friends in
clude Hyde, Kelso, Fez, Jackie and his girlfriend Donna. This is a must see if only for a few moments of brief nostalgia, or just to see what your parents were talking about. (I have done a separate opinion on this show so check it out if you want to know more)
=============================================

=============================================
One On One
=============================================
The newest comedy to air on trouble tv, about a New York native, Flex Washington bringing up his 15 year old daughter Breanna. Breanna recently moved from Georgia Atlanta from living with her Mum to living with her Dad in New York. Flex is overly protective of Breanna and has as hard a job leaving her to get along with her life than he does keeping his focus on his job as a TV reported for the local news team. This is a nice combination of both The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air and Hanging with Mr Cooper and always provides a laugh.
=============================================

=============================================
Two Guys And A Girl
=============================================
About three twenty somethings living in Boston, Masachusetts, USA, just graduated from College, Sharon is married to Jonny, a slow but good hearted man, Berg is highly reminding of Chandler Bing of friends (a good thing) he works as a Doctor but was put on probation for nearly killing someone, Pete (Bergs roommate) is a make-up salesman who has a secret crush on Sharon but is unsure of what to do. This show is one of the funniest I've seen and Berg is definitely the funniest dude I've seen in a comedy series.
=============================================

============================================
The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air
=============================================
About a college kid named Will always puts his 'Hot Mommas' before schoolwork and is always in Trouble with his uncle Phil, he
has a cousin Carlton who he makes midget jokes at, a cousin Ahsley, his favourite cousin, another cousin Hilary, a woman obcessed with herself, and yet ANOTHER cousin in Nick the youngest of the bunch at only 5 years old. Will is a Philly native but lives with his Auntie and Uncle in Bel Air and doned the name 'Fresh Prince Of Bel Air'
=============================================

Well, that?s a few of them reviewed, I know there are many, many more than that, but in my views those are the best going right now and the ones I both prefer and recommend to anyone.

I fully admit this is aimed towards the 'kids' and as I am a kid I watch it, simple, it has some shows for the more adult viewers and the majority are for the kids. It starts at 6.00 AM in the morning and plays straight through until 12.00 PM and it is Channel 607 on Sky Digital.

=============================================
Good Points:
It has many re-runs of old shows like Saved By The Bell and Sweet Valley High.

Many comedies that can have you in tears.
=============================================

=============================================
Bad Points:
How they insist on using 'Txt Tlk' (Text Talk) before, in between and after shows.

Them replaying some Garage MC idiots doing some silly songs over and over again.
=============================================

Overall it's a great channel and my favourite sky channel. With the good points outweighing the bad I give it a thumbs up.

PS. I once said "this was my worst opinion ever" I?ve outdone myself :)
