Interesting MoM this morning.

Still no return of the full titles Sad

Then that dog, it was drawing me too it! It was nice & a change, but was too bright on screen and moved constantly.
I felt as though they'd received complaints and then froze it, and then someone from CiTV Birmingham told them that they were using the old dog and so return to the current one.

I wouldn't mind if it was white and opaque or even coloured and opaque; then swap every twenty seconds or so to show the other (CiTV or MoM logo, rather than constantly spinning!).

To the show itself. As has been said. It is getting repetitive and scripted.
As has been proven they can handle live situations well (such as bits that go wrong). For me the only scripted bits should be introducing guests performances (when they go through past songs and such), and sketches, you can't get three presenters to adlib a sketch, though it may be interesting!

Dunno, I always fund Chums adlibbed to some extent. Well, they were always making mistakes and laughing anyway, it was just part of the show. MoM should try and make their mistakes a part of the show like that rather than try and avoid them, rather than make it seem so scripted.

I liked the bit at the end of yesterdays show where they sang along to the title music, have they been doing this every week or was it just for yesterday?.

Also, their title theme sound like busted have sung it, i may be wrong.

Well there isn't one yet. It was just an idea from that was quoted from Charles Allen in an interview. He said an itv kids channel and an itv gold channel are idea that they were looking into. And as we have yet to see any sign of an itv gold/3/plus channel, a childrens channel wont be coming yet. I expect one day it will, but not yet. They're still no where near ready, and need a substancial budget increase and increase in commissioned productions as opposed to ones that they have bought the rights too (basically the majority of the current schedule).

They've a new tots opening, just as I was ready to sing. It uses the animation from the Sept Toybox sting (with inserts of current running shows), and a new version (with new lyrics) of the song used from January.

Apparantly MoM's ratings took a bit of a slump last saturday after almost catching up with D&D the week before.

Shame really cause I think it's turning into quite a good show. Rolling Eyes

Did a search on google. And got the information that she was 17 in 1986 (when her page 3 career started), which by my calculations makes her 35 this year.

I had to go through a lot of nude pictures of Gail to find that info, it was a hard job, but someone had to do it!

I don't know how many people are intersted, but There's the MoM Guide at TV Tome: http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-24452/ adn your's truly is the editor. (And if anyone here is willing to contribute, feel free. I especially would like to know who the producers are, as well as who plays The Twins, Ray & The Doctor). BTW, I did make that cheesy graphic myself.

I have applied for the SM:TV & CD:UK guides as well, though they haven't got back to me yet (though I haven't the tapes of some old editions from fanoftv yet (hopefully I'll get them soon), I'll be able to fill in the final 3 SM:TVs as I taped them, along with me now taping CD:UK every fortnight, along with the airdates as long as I find out irregular airdates- Saturdays when there weren't on, and when they were on a day other than Sat.).
