What is it with TV stations that can't be bothered showing the entire
series? If
they're so hell-bent on contracts and rights, why don't they make it
compulsory
to show the entire series, and if they can't agree to that, sell it to a
rival
TV station or threaten to remove the TV station's licence? Prisoner fans
around
the world are sick to death of being treated like this!
