[edit] How about a List of ATV programmes
Since there is a list for TVB programmes, how about one for ATV programmes to rival that list as I know of a few imported programmes that has not being mentioned on this page which was shown on the channel, they were Initial D, Macross, Kamen Rider Series. Also when I was young, I was then living in HK, ATV used to show Cantonese dubs of The A Team, Duke of Hazzard and Knight Rider WilliRennen 14.34 1 Mar 2006 (utc)
That is absolutely not needed. ATV hardly has any good programmes (other than that series about the insurance industry recently, and even that has extremely poor ratings), and most of the programmes it makes are forgotten pretty quickly. Wikipedia is not a name storage facility for D-Rated programmes. Let's keep the godawful list that it will turn out to be out of Wikipedia. Arbiteroftruth 21:33, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Very interested to know that AVT dosen't as none of my relatives in Hong Kong watch ATV in the evening :), lets face it, there are too many list pages in Wikipedia! WilliRennen
[edit] Criticism
it's said in Critcism that viewing figures for ATV Home have fallen sharply. I know that ATV's is extremely much smaller than TVB, but i think it's been the case since very very very long time ago. Does it really get even worse than before? Any citation?
I have heard from someone that at one time, ATV's rating fell to 0 pts. for one show (note: in HK, 1 rating point=approx. 65,000 people). But alas, my memory is not a good source of citation here. Can anyone confirm that? Arbiteroftruth 04:31, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Though ATV programmes are usually much less popular than TVB ones, their ratings rarely fell to 0 pts. Usually they are around 15-20 pts, in my memory. - Alexander the Mans 16:29, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Isn't that a bit high, Alex? TVB gets at least 20 pts. even for their crappist programmes. Wouldn't 4-6 pts. be much a much more realistic estimate? I was flipping through some very old magazine and I got that figure. Arbiteroftruth 22:57, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
