Gotta love Go!

For those who haven’t already noticed yet, but there is the new channel 99 on your digital tellies and it is fabulous! Launched a couple of weeks ago, it is effectively the Australian version of the CW network, where the Nine Network signed a $500 million dollar deal with Warner Bros. (who owns CW) for five years for access to a majority of their shows.



Targeted at the younger audience, I love that they are finally airing shows at prime time like Gossip Girl, TMZ, ET and reality shows like True Beauty and The Bachelor/Bachelorette. Free to air TV, has filled the TV void that otherwise could only be filled by Foxtel!

They ‘soft launched’ the channel with many of the shows which are a few seasons old, like the Bachelor and Bachelorette (airs on Thursday nights) that went to air in the US in 2007. Most people that love the shows would probably follow them over the net instead (as there is no other avail.), but that is set to change especially for brand new shows.

With the full launch set for 9/9/09, here to looking forward to some great shows, in line with the US when they come back from their summer hiatus, other shows on the channel will include:

- Weeds
- Curb Your Enthusiasm
- The Hills
- Moonlight
- Privileged
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
- The Vampire Diaries

I’m personally looking forward to The Vampire Diaries (and not it’s not because of Twilight), it’s one of CW’s most anticipated new TV shows that bumped many other pilots including a Gossip Girl spin off and is likely to hook you to the screen each week.

GTG, I’ll be on my own (study) hiatus and will be back after the 22 September with some exciting reviews installed.
Lots of love, Little J.
