If you could run your own television station, what kind of shows would you air?
- Thread starter J Storm
- Start date
The second coming of Techtv. I'll bring up all the hosts, all the shows, and tell them to do it again. The screen savers, call for help, fresh gear, I still youtube old eps. There is no channel out here dedicated strictly for technology ... and please don't count G4. That channel ain't nothing but Spike Jr.
the CSI Bgol true Ock-tales
was bout to say the same thing..
id do the same for SCIFI(not SyFy)..show movies that arent those wack"monster/nature run amok" films with ps2/xbox/N64 quality CGI that they show every weekend
would also show anime as well..maybe also try to do some miniseries based off some favorite books i have read,like

I would run one 24 hour show on a livefeed where a crew of highly skilled mercenaries would track down white collar criminals (bankers, financial analyst,Fortune 500 executives, every other person who worked on Wall Street 2000-2009, ANY PUBLIC OFFICALS) who ruined the lives of millions and got off with slaps on the wrist and execute their ass in front of the Lincoln Memorial....
The show's name....AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.
FUCK EM'
*two cents*

all the great 80's sitcoms, gameshows, and movies. I'd bring Saturday morning cartoons back with a vengeance. I'd call the channel "throwback."
I'd have a poll on the website where viewers can vote for new shows.
I'd try to bring old school music videos back as well.

After launching Techtv again, this would be my next channel. Agreed, an all 80's channel even with 80's commercials. The closest channel to this idea is Boomerang, TV Land went to pot.
could also add a "where are they now" type show as well
Ancient African History
African History
African American History
History of Slavery
Business classes
Home Improvement classes
Community organization classes
GED Classes
Children Education Classes
Math English Science classes
Alcohol and Drug prevention discussions
Chess Lessons
Chess competitions
Information is power
FINALLY - THIS IS ONE OF THE ANSWERS I WAS LOOKING FOR.
But to most people, this channel would be Boring and not watch.
But when COON-TV is on, people complain about not having anything Good to watch.
Better be a PUBLIC TV station (or one in a school) because that programming wouldn't survive a day on commercial air. You'd be out of business and broke before you could say "Jackie Robinson."
You are right about that. But to be real. If I owned the station then that means that chances are I am trying to make money. You can say what you would put on but in the end ratings really dictate what will be put on the air. Ratings = advertising $$$.
Not sure if my idea is even possible. 
But if I were running a TV station, like Bob Johnson...
I would try to set-it up like this...
Offer TV programming in 2 'modes' ...
1. A Traditional mode. (pre-programmed)
2. An 'On Demand' mode. (customizable, like TiVO)
The Traditional mode would feature a 'balanced' line-up of...
- Current News
- New Dramatic Series (TBD)
- New Comedy Sitcoms (TBD)
- New Sports Programming (TBD)
- New 'Movies of the Week'. (TBD)
- New Movies, or Talk Shows for Women (TBD)
- New Independent Films and/or Documentaries (TBD)
Didn't put much thought into the exact shows.
I would leave that for another day.
--------------------
But the 'on-demand' mode is where the difference lives.
On my TV station, the "On-Demand' option would be similar to a Pandora app.
Viewers can customize their very own weekly 'line-ups', based on Categories.
Say Harold from Detroit likes....
- Sports, Classic Hip-Hop, Documentaries & Technology.
Each day / week, the station would build a 'playlist' of syndicated content, mixed with NEW shows that 'fit' his categories... then just 'randomize' the timing of TV schedule.
Sample Playlist...
- Harold's Music Shows include:
Yo! MTV Raps re-runs, [insert New 2010 Video Countdown show], BET Rap City re-runs, Video Music Box re-runs, etc.
- Harold's Sports Shows include:
Pardon The Interruption, Black College Football, [insert New 2010 NBA games] , Boxing Classics, etc.
- Harold's Documentaries include:
How it's Made re-runs, [insert new 2010 Discovery Channel episode] , Old Nova re-runs, Old PBS re-runs, etc.
- Harold's Technology shows include:
'How it's Made' re-runs, [insert new 2010 G4 Show] , Old Nova re-runs, Tech TV re-runs, etc.
Harold can further tailor the 'suggested' shows to serve-up exactly what he wants.
However, All advertising Commercials would be New.
Audiences would be tracked more like 'YouTube Views'
So when Harold turns on my channel today... he sees a semi-customized line-up....

8-9 am: Yo!MTV Raps (syndicated / on-demand)
-------
9-9:30 am: Tech TV: The Screensavers (syndicated / on-demand)

24 hour youtube, USG, and dailymotion ass shaking videos
Very successful no?
Not according to this board.
Would you take business advice from this forum?
I would have a channel dedicated to action, sci fi, and tech. On Friday nights, I would have uncut martial arts films and on Saturdays, uncut action films. I would have old sci fi series throughout the day. On saturday mornings, I would have cartoon blocks dedicated to comic books and on Sundays, mature anime. Sunday Nights would be sci fi movies. I would also run television shows from all over the world dedicated to action or scifi..like British television.

I'd run a global black history (including documentaries and short films on black history) segment during the evening.
In the morning a news segment with black businessmen/women in communities around the country and new technology.
Followed by a cooking show around 8:00am by 11:00 a recap of news with updates
By miday I'd have a sports followd
By 2:00pm I'd have cartoons & anime
By 5:00pm Rehash of news and updates
By 7:00pm Comedy and Alexyss K Tylor V-power.
By 9:00pm Movies & Film
By 12:00am Talk Show Host
By 1:00am More movies

have a cable channel devoted to "grindhouse" type films,b-movies,blaxploitation,etc..maybe let quentin tarantino and robert rodriguez show their favorite films every now and again,and get joe bob briggs to do a show similar to the one he did for TNT
would also bring back these shows
save them for late nights on saturdays and do a "Jay-walking" type thing before the commercial breaks

The only thing missing from the list is music (Rnb, Neo-Soul, Conscious Hip-Hop [Roots, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, Little Brother], Jazz, Black Soul [Sam Cooke, Otis Redding]). Other than that, that's all the stuff I would air.
that was my show on the weekends, rhonda shear and them big ass titties
they used to play all the dope movies like wildstyle, hardbodies, porkys
