Where has BBC2 "Comedy Monday" gone?

What's happened to the schedule on BBC2 - for a number of years now there's been 2 or 3 comedy/entertainment shows on a Monday evening - just right to start the week on a night few people go out.

As good and wholesome as "Tribe" might be (although I've not watched it) it doesn't sound like the froth needed on a dark winter Monday night.

Ah well, BBC2 audience share drops still futher (I imagine) as I and how many others turn to DVDs or satellite instead. I think the usual programmes on in the slot have been scattered far and wide over the schedule into isolated and forgetable slots - I wonder how the ratings will fare?

I know there's a repeat of HIGNFY at 10, but so what?!

1 and 2 are showing repeats of comedy tonight, HIGNFY and Men Behaving...

New comedy is now on Sundays on 2, and Friday appears to be the 'new Saturday' on 1.

I think that Never Mind The Buzzcocks on a Sunday night is a stupid idea, I used to like my Monday dose of comedy. BBC2 has really changed since Jane Root left and for the worse too. Viewing figures have proven that.

There was hardly anything I like to watch on BBC2 at Xmas, and it's normally my channel of choice!

To be fair most of the drop in the audience share has probably been due to the loss of the Simpsons.

The lack of the comedy zone (although Friday was superior to Monday) is a shame. I can see why monday wasn't ideal with drama on BBC 1 likely to attract a similar audience, although the lack of a specific slot may lead to a decrease in the ammount of new comedies. At the moment it has actually increased [ish] with an hour and a half on sunday, and half an hour on monday (a repeat, but still) and half an hour on fridays.

It's ironic that BBC2 claim falling viewing figures are because it is offering more public service television - which figures show is servicing less of the public!

...which is the whole idea.
