i watched Grey's Anatomy... its superb..
i guess OTV would gain audience if they show this serie...
very entertaining show
from Wikipedia:
"Grey’s Anatomy is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning American primetime television medical drama. It debuted on ABC as a midseason replacement for Boston Legal on March 27, 2005, immediately following Desperate Housewives.

The series revolves around Dr. Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), who began the show as a surgical intern at Seattle Grace Hospital in Seattle.

The title of the show is a reference to the famous medical handbook Gray's Anatomy.

On February 11, 2008, ABC picked up Grey’s Anatomy for the 2008-09 television season.[1] However, there is a possibility that the production of Season 5 of Grey’s Anatomy will be affected by the upcoming Screen Actors Guild strike.[2]"

Why do you want OTV to do that? To distract the viewers from the important things in life? To get them worried about Grey's well-being, Scofield's escape plans, the tensions between Jack Shepperd and John Lock, how superboy became superman, how Hiro Nakamura is going to save the world?

No habibé, OTV must give you the political updates 24/7!

Do you have any idea how much those series costs ? And do you know that most of them are already bought by Showtime which has exclusivity deals for all the region afaik.

Only chance to see these series on OTV is by buying the older seasons and always be 2-3 seasons behind which isn't that interesting frankly.

cmon life isnt abt political updates , some time to time fun on tv wouldnt be bad i m not suggesting like 7 hours of tv series! i would like to see one or 2 series going through the TV but yet maybe the_hitman_9 is right maybe it costs too much so maybe slowly slowly they will tend to introduce them. OTV is a social TV network to all ages and all people afterall

I am someone who supports diversity and openness in general, and I agree that a channel must satisfy the biggest range of audience possible. But given the cost of those sitcoms, and the competition out there, I think it is much wiser if OTV uses this money to promote local talents and local sitcoms and local programs more.

It shouldn't be al 3asifa tahoubbou 20 marra again and again, some new and breakthrough ideas are always there. We have enough talents, already existing and new ones, so we can easily use that money to invest in those.

We need to educate and formate the brains of the Lebanese so that in 2009, they'd think orange! If you want to put some TV series, they need to be political!

lol man didn't you get that I was being sarcastic?

[the_hitman_9]

i always wondered why there are no lebanese comedy series that use live audience. It has proven it success in the states and im sure we dont lack the talent for it. So what's stopping Otv in trying that direction ?
Its a lot cheaper than buying an american sitcom and can be much more entertaining if done properly.
