In Brazil, free-to-air television channels are despicable. So, if you don't want to kill yourself while you're watching TV, you'll have to pay.
However, brazilian pay-TV leaves a lot to be desired. It's inflexible and kinda expensive (mainly if you consider the average wage of brazilian workers). Even being a badly paid civil servant, I'm a subscriber. Then you may ask me: And what about the shows, programs, movies? Are they satisfactory at least?
Well... Let's only talk about movies, right? (Doing so, I guess I'm gonna be able to stay calm...).
Last week, for instance, Paranormal activity: The marked ones and Kick-Ass were scheduled in three channels! Both flicks are fine, but they - like lots of others - have been repeated excessively! Of course, it's just a nasty way to force us to purchase another TV package (with HBO included, for instance, that will cost us more), or to buy on-demand contents (like NOW). That's why pay-TV companies hate Netflix!
In other hand - and speaking of overly repeated movies -, why, why, WHY those channels adore Adam Sandler so much???
Whenever you turn on the TV you see a Sandler's stuff on the air. And some of his films - pardon my French - are a gigantic amount of crap. Do you disagree? Fine. But, please, answer me: Who can put up with things like Jack and Jill, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Little Nick or (for Zeus' sake!) You don't mess with the Zohan?
Hey, pay-TV companies, since you're not gonna stop repeating movies, could you choose comedies truly funny at least?
