Slow rotation of TV shows on V:Port

Ok, I fly quite a bit on VS and a lot of V:Port routes, but isn't it about time that they got around to changing the TV shows about a bit? I'm especially looking at the US comedy in that Simpsons, Friends and Will & Grace have all been the same for a very long time, to the point where I think I've watched all of the simpsons several times and all of Friends and Will & Grace at least once! The same goes for Father Ted.

They put Lost on which was good, but only two episodes and that's now gone (I was hoping for the full season to be put on), CSI is gone too (again they only had a couple of episodes).

So is anyone else noticing this? They don't seem to put the effort into the TV shows that they do into the movies (I know most people watch them but I've seen all the ones I want to on V:Port and they are quite slow at putting new ones one there too!).

Still, V:Port is far superior to the other IFE's around so am still happy to be getting the selection we do get :D

Yep - I have to say when I was doing a monthly VS routine I soon found I had got through all the TV programme options.

As luck would have it, I can watch Father Ted time and time again, and still laugh as much as the first time.[:p] I know other members also enjoy repete viewings of other comedy programmes - particularly AlanA who is a huge fan of Little Britain.;)

:D Luckily I rarely fly out of LGW/MAN so don't get subjuected to Nova.

I think it will be more Father Ted on my return flight, "Speed" is such a funny episode it can be watched over and over!
