I watch more of 10 and then secondly 7. I hardly ever watch channel 9 because they have shows. I watch more of ABC and SBS than 9.

10. So many more shows that I like on that channel then any other. In fact, I don't think I even watch any other channel except for SBS for Top Gear. Everything else I watch is on 10.

As Rove said "If it weren't for The Simpsons, our network would crumble."

And very true that is.

ABC.

I very rarely watch anything on the commercial stations. Brain dead sitcoms, shallow, mindless current affairs programs, and reheated US crime shows. If anything good is actually screened, you spend more time watching ads than the actual program.

Commercial free-to-air TV sucks. If I could afford cable, I would get it.

SBS has a few good programs too.

Highly recommend the old black and whites ABC puts on in the wee hours. Well worth videotaping and watching at your leisure.

Probably SBS. If I have to have the TV on it'll be SBS. Anything that's decent on the commercial networks is available for download months or years before they get around to showing it here (if at all). After watching stuff commercial free for so long its hard to watch 7, 9 or 10.
