If anyone could plz get any captures of any of these, that would be great.

I think you can get it with a motorised receiver, but it needs to be pointing to those obscure satellites to get it.

Well Coupling is also launching tonight. I saw a slip of it on Liquid and it doesn't look as good as ours but we'll have to wait and see.

I'll have it on NTSC VHS tonight. I can capture some stills when I get back to the UK.

Joey, Rachel and Ross are on the cover of this week's TV Guide. Looks like Joey has lost quite a bit of weight and is looking awfully good. *Woof*

Synopsis of tonghts show:

The 10th and final season begins with Rachel and Joey struggling to tell Ross about their kiss in Barbados, while Monica comes up with a corny fix for her rapidly growing 'fro. Back in New York, Phoebe is forced to dump Mike's girlfriend for him after realizing that she's engaged to another woman's beau.

It doesn't look very good to me either. I'll give it a miss I think. ER also launches tonight and has someone I recognised from 'Bend it Like Beckham' in it.

Yeah, Parminder Nagra from BILB went on to get a part on ER. She was also in that recent thing on Channel 4 about Asian relationships.

i saw NBC's version of Coupling. The show theme was reworked and sounded weird. some of the lines were not well written and critics who saw the 1st episode already think its off to bad a start and this is suppose to be the show that will replace friends.

I thought it was okay and my friend in boston thought it was "cute."

The Coupling remake was rubbish. The theme song was the same..just reworked with shiny images of the stars scenes of Chicago, where the US show is set. Immediately following the US premiere BBCAmerica replayed the UK version. I was amazed at how much was trimmed out of the show. The look and the feel of the show was different. The newspapers have been ripping the show apart. I have a feeling it will be around for a bit. The reason being is because its wedged between ER and Will and Grace. NBC powerhouse "Must See TV" Thursday has ruled ratings for more than 20 years. But if they want to stave off CSI and Survivour on CBS they need to better than a rubbish Coupling remake. The Chicago Tribune called for NBC to just screen the UK version. Not going to happen but I thought it was cool.

For the techies here

NBC is on 15W FTA, don't know frequency, but I know's it FTA, but you need a big dish and the picture format is NTSC, so Sly Digiboxes won't work.

Good luck to anyone who has a go! Wink

Thanks for uploading them!

But slightly OT; but why is the NBC DOG in colour here? I always thought it was transparent or slightly grey.

Plus these titles seem to have far more movement in them than the others.
