Up With the Birds?!? Up With the C*ck?!? What next . . . Morning Wood?!?

How about combining the three, and have . . . "The BIG Smut-fest".

In France on the M6 channel they have (had? - I haven't checked this year!) a programme (Morning Live) that was a bit like the B4 idea, mixing music videos with news and comedy sketches (a bit like the Big Breakfast but more so).



Morning Live is actually based on The Big Breakfast.

Channel 4 has obviously calmed down a bit in recent years - there was a time when you couldn't really tell the difference between the 2... Wink

I've always thought that one of the terrestrial channels should play music videos overnight instead of news, text or repeats. Maybe a breakfast slot would just be as suitable.

Up until a few years ago Sky One (and Sky 2 for this matter) used to show music videos through the night, which was a good idea. It would be nice to see this at breakfast but not for 2 hours straight maybe a bit of News or comedy (as said) in between.

Though I assume it'll be likely that they'll show back to back repeats of Friends, The Simpsons (When they get it), Futurama, The Salon, Scrubs etc. I didn't mind the schedule they had when RI:SE was on hiaitus in January, a mix of Futurama, Music and a couple of shows would be good and more ideal for Channel 4.
