Why Do TV Stations Have to Continually Recap on Reality Shows?

Friday, 22 June 2012 09:30

Don’t know about you but I’m enjoying watching The Block, also like watching Border Security and other similar shows.. but I’ve gotta say that when you break down shows like The Block and say Border Security one thing really turns me off it’s the amount of recapping they do. The good to an add break them come back with what you’ve just seen or at the start of each program you get a recap of the night before. It’s as though they are trying to spin the time out to fill either the half hour or full hour.

Does it drive you mad?

Have you ever turned the show off because of it?

Is it just me?

Ms Sonja Walker, director of Kids First Children’s Services, said that devices such as computer keyboards and smart phones mean that children are growing up without the strength and stamina to hold a pen for the required period of...

Electricity How Much Will Your Bill Increase?

The last 18 months have been rough on people living on fixed incomes and families struggling to make ends meet. It’s timely that householders can breathe a sigh of relief when it comes to their power bills after the NSW pricing regulator set an average increase in electricity prices of only 1.7%. This means bills could jump by as little as $17 next month, while the most people can expect to pay is an extra $63. The ruling follows years of soaring power prices that saw some families saddled with an 80% increase in their bills over a... Read more
