Hi SBS Two – Welcome to Television
Posted on Monday, 1st June, 2009 by Dan Barrett
SBS tonight launched its multi-channel: SBS2.
This should be a fairly exciting event. A new channel. New branding. And then there is SBS’s renewed commitment to airing some great foreign films.
Unfortunately, SBS2 seems to have launched with the dullest selection of programing possible. It couldn’t be any more uninspired.
At least the revised watermarks on SBS/SBS Two have a bit of style to them.

Hi Andy Miller,
Did you bother reading the post? Or did you just cut/paste in the same posting you no doubt made on numerous blogs last night?
I was hardly complimentary to your new schedule. I believe that, had you read it, you would have noticed that I referred to it as dull and uninspired.
What you posted on behalf of SBS is tantamount to spam. I know you’re new to the job at SBS. Heck, it’s a great gig that you’ve scored and an exciting opportunity. But please, in future, be a bit more considerate about posting messages like that.
Social media provides a great opportunity to develop a genuine dialogue between content creators and consumers. A generic post like that just doesn’t help establish a conversation.
That said, please do swing by again and have an actual online chat with us. We are big fans of SBS, and while the SBS2 schedule seems to be a bit of a mis-step, it’s a step in the right direction.
Cheers
Dan

i love the new sbs2. ive been watching it every night, catching up on all the films ive missed seeing the last few years. keep up the excellent work sbs2 and dont listen to whingers, frankly if you find online chats more interesting, then your taste is probably more suited towards one of the networks that promote shows like ‘the whinger wants a wife, to listen to his boring rants..’ etc. if you want to point out the irony that someone is giving their opinion about how pretentious it is for other people to think someone cares about their opinion, then too bad, you already read this far, so you asked for it.

Is it possible for sbs 2 to show Bulgarian News on television. There is news from many european countries but not from Bulgaria. Thanks for allowing me to e-mail you on this matter. Would like very much to hear from you.
Kind regards.
