Where are the figures saying Ellen is popular at 10am? Any shows on before midday are just place holders on RTE 1, It's the only time of day that Virgin Media One beats RTE1 hands down, with This Morning. Morning Progammes up to One O Clock have been regularly dropped for Dail Coverage or News Coverage in the past and that policy looks like continuing. I have seen people complain that Shortland Street and Doctors have been Deferred. I have never seen any comment about the cheap US shows shown before 12.
Putting Old episodes of Ellen on at 5pm on RTE 2 shows how out of touch Management are in RTE. The new schedule is an improvement of sorts.
If RTE are not airing it at 5.00pm, then the reason is that the edition did not do well in the ratings - do you understand the concept of it? RTE would not dump the show from 5.00pm if it were not performing reasonably well.
Please remember unlike the BBC, RTE does have to attract advertising too as well as their licence fee, so commercial reasons effects where and when a show is placed on RTE channels.
Yes, I do understand the concept of it... That's why I said that Management were out of touch... The point being that anyone with any knowledge of the Broadcast environment would know beforehand that Ellen was Never going to do well in the ratings at that time, especially as that time has been aimed at kids for the last 30 or so years.
If you're going to criticise comments you could read them first. You still haven't provided numbers to show Ellen is popular in the morning. Possibly because they don't exist. If you can provide the numbers that's great. If not, don't worry about it as I won't be responding to your posts again Mr King.
Ellen continues to air shortly after 10.00am each day on RTE 1, it appears the early evening re-run did not do well in the ratings and it has been dropped, and the morning broadcast will remain, as it is popular, up against This Morning on Virgin Media One (ITV).
