If it isn't, I won't buy another Sydney Morning Herald...
ABC2 TV schedule should also be considered for inclusion in the Sunday
newspapers (Sunday Telegraph, Sun-Herald).. but I am unsure about those
as I pour my pesos into the Monday SMH.
Anyone know if they are publishing the TV schedule for ABC2 in the
Sunday glossy TV guides yet?

Nice to see the editor thought again about the "no space" decision and went
with my suggestion of sticking ABC2 listings next to channel 31 :-)

You can also get it for free on the ninemsn site. Has been there for at
least 2-3 weeks.

As it has on YourTV - though with YourTV, I don't have to sit around for
minutes on end (yes, even on broadband) waiting for useless over-the-top
page content to load, which I have to do with NineMSN.

The point is, however, that online listings are useless when you're not
online. I don't want to have to boot my computer up just to check a TV
guide listing. Thankfully the Green Guide has come to the rescue.

there's a number of websites u can get it too.. ABC.. YourTV..

but sometimes a printed guide is easier/more accessible than an online one.

Like when you're sitting on the couch in front of the telly?

Good to see Michael Idato (SMH) watches these groups too. Can't hurt.

Agreed. If the EPG on CH4 in Sydney was in a grid form that'd be much better
too.

Even you should be able to manage to print what is online.

Men".

I agree - at least some sort of listing is bettter than none, as with
Channel 31- but it would be nice to have more detail, for example, to
know exactly which (repeated) episode of 'Studio 22' was going to air,
yes? Is it too much to ask for more detail? Because otherwise, we're
still going to an on-line site to look, so what's the point?

Cheers,

Tim

this might not be the newspapers fault, it depends how much information ABC2
is giving to the press for publication

Yes - the ABC website generally doesn't detail the episodes, so it may
not be surprising that the TGG doesn't get any more.
