TS: CBBC vs. CITV

when I used to have a rear projection television 20 years ago, the Cbeebies logo was permanently image-burned onto the screen. It's fucking shit really because not everyone has internet access.

my theory is that there will be an outcry over this, and a successful campaign, then everyone will be so pleased with themselves that they won't mind so much that they are still getting rid of BBC4, Radio 4 Extra, etc. not sure if this strategy has a name, but seem to see it a lot.

it's a mixed bag is R4 Extra, but I do like it when they put old stuff on like the Vincent Price of Fear series from the 70's. But often when you put it on it's some tepid drama or NPR shite. But I still would miss it tbh.

Yes, I can't see CBBC going without a fight.

xp it's much like BBC4 in terms of massively missed potential, given the incredible archive they apparently can't be bothered to dig into

yes it's too much of the same popular comedy hits in rotation or just shit radio plays that no-one really cared much for in the first place. Like you say with such a deep and rich archive, it could have been beautiful and they still could have fitted in some of the "popular" stuff that seemingly not enough people are listening to anyway.
