Spot on OnSong!

Does this mean 7Mate will show the friday night game live in SA while the women can watch better homes and gardens on the regular 7?

Judging by the trailer on that site it seems the target demographic will be pimply-faced 15 year old boys. Dumb ones.

Have noticed today (not sure when it happened) but channel 90 is now labelled GEM and plays different shows to channel 9. Anyone heard anything on that?

7Mate wins immediate kudos for, after around 20 years off TV, finally bringing "The Rockford Files"
and "The A Team" back each day :D
