Pet Peeve #8. TV Chanels that alter programmes at the last minute from the one advertised.

I am not very clever when it comes to remembering the programmes I have hilighted in my TV guide, that I would like to watch in the day time. One reason is that I do not watch day time TV. The other is, I am usually on the internet, playing games or on Face Book.Usually the latter.

My computer has become my lifeline, and I enjoy doing things online.  I had hilighted a movie on Ch 7 called, 'Eloise' It is based on the children's story of a six year old girl, who lives at The Plaza Hotel in New York. She is VERY precocious and gives the staff, and her unfortunate nanny, a terrible time. My brother obtained a copy of the book a few years ago, but was not able to obtain one for me. I thought, I would tape it and, if, the film  was true to the story, I would give it to him to watch.

BUT, once again the bleep chanel put another movie on instead!!!!! They broardcast, Uptown Girls" Phooey! I am NOT impressed, but they can do this without compunction and to heck with the viewers, who, like me, had been looking forward all week to watching the movie.
