QTN's a great network. The programs are well thought out and both informative and a lot of fun to watch. Honey Labrador is another equivalent 'gay games' grab for Frank. She knows her stuff when it comes to fashion and the entertainment and she is an excellent interviewer. That's not only BRUNCH but also Xcess/Acces. Steve Kmetko QTN World News is an excellent gay slant newscaster. He knows his stuff and is a great interviewer. He's drawn a lot of well known GLBT folks across the country to his shows for interviews. You can see the clips of Steve's news shows on Planet Out. Chrisanne does an outstanding job with On topic. Chrisanne is a brilliant woman who knows her stuff and researches her topics very well before the show. She's attracts some really good and very interesting interviews. I'm expecting Chrisanne's show to go to an hour. Reichen's show as it turns out is a very good show. He has 2 co-hosts who sit on either side of him and they have varying opinions on the topic of the night from agreeing to disagreeing. The show is based on callers questions and comments and I've found it interesting to listen to all week. Q live is a lot of fun, a lot of fun. Robbie, being Honey's travelling companion in many media events, has also drawn a lot of good interviews for this show and he equally knows his stuff. There's something very interesting about Robbie's presentation. Saskia is well read in sports and I expect to see her role with the Gay Games increase even more than the increase we're seeing right now. Queer Edge, is "queer edge".....the folks on this show have really met the criteria, fascinating, way out there in many cases, very interesting subjects and Jack E Jett is one of the funniest people I've ever seen on tv.....Nick Oram is finally getting his material out there, last night the LA special was really informative and easily could be put out on main stream tv as an interesting travel magazine.....when Wenda Watch's show hits she will also be well received I bet. She is a riot...Steve Oldfield is the entertainment review person, they also have a porn review person on frequently and on the QTN World News a legal analyst frequently shows up as a guest (same one in many cases)...

QTN to me presents an interesting slant to information being put out in the media. Much of it's focus is obviously gay related but like any other group in history following this group, the styles, history, issues, events, politics, economics is nothing less than fascinating to me. This year is going to be the breakthrough year for the GLBT community business wise. With the launch of gay media, tied in with Planet Out's reach to national and international levels (their international reach is 150 countries) the GLBT styles, history, issues, events, politics, economics will now be found in consolidated vehicles and therefore the awareness created from these consolidated vehicles will serve to increase the strength of the march forward to equality of the GLBT community. I am most interested in the business aspect of this effort (the equality effort I think I heard will take 10 years)....but the business effort should show major advances in 2006 with QTN and it's competitors leading the way. Along with the newly introduced TWIST Gay Radio recently announced....QTN is positioned so well in this Gay Corporate effort as the vehicle that is going to help get the info out there.....and of course sticking to a 24/7 business plan they have plenty of slots to put these information programs....

HBO plays a lot of "repeat movies"....all dam month they play the same handful of movies over and over until the next month and then it starts again, with a sprinkling of original programming and specials here and there......and they charge me $12/ month to have HBO. What a crazy idea to pay for programming like that. lol

gees. Have you checked HBO lately?...
At least, in Asia all we get on HBO are repeats. Probably the same in the US I would imagine. At least QTN provides 5-6 hours of new, original programing each day which is more than most channels.
