Finally, House is aired in France. Well, it was already aired on the cable, but I don't have it, and I waited to see it. I was worried because TF1 bought it, and series have bad luck on this channel.
Once, in their ongoing competition against M6, who already bought X-Files and Buffy, and became an important adversary in the channel war thanks to them, they were faster than them, and bough Angel.
The first season was aired very late, during the new Buffy's episodes. The next season saw many episode cut, to hide the violent scenes and aired in the afternoon. Episodes were shuffled, when they were aired. We never saw the rest. I missed Angel, the Puppet Man.
(Another channel, France 2, bought Veronica Mars two/three years ago, and never diffused it, they couldn't find a slot which could actually take Friends place, one of their best good choice in TV show-buy. They have Derrick. They didn't think it'll really work, no matter the time slot. Anyways, they sold VM to M6, and it's already on TV. They also sold all the Friends. See, the peoples dubbing the 9 past season wanted a raise. They were fired, and other people did the dubbing for the last season, and the news voiced didn't please the fans, who stopped watching, therefor, not enough money for the channel. So not useful anymore. I'm sure M6 will thanks them.)
So, to get back to TF1, when they have a new big serie, I'm worried. But they had Lost, and it was in prime time, with all the scenes, and all the episodes, so, I thought, maybe...
And now, I saw House. I liked it. I like House, he's funny. And with the flist talking about it, I could see the Wilson/House. And, hmm, did something important or interesting happen in the two first episodes? Apparently, we don't need them, and can begin the serie with the third and fourth episode. Yeah. Not like if a pilot was useful or something.
And they bought Heroes. Ouch.
I can still hope, I guess. A good thing, they don't have Supernatural, it's owned by M6 (who have Charmed, Smallville, Medium, Stargate and the others, so it was a little expected. But not Ghost Whisperer. Someone else has it. Guess who.).
