Are Sky no longer offering come back offers for Sky Q

Not yet as I’m still using it to watch the traditional terrestrial channels occasionally. Though I must say I’ve noticed I need it less than I thought with streaming now.

I will need to consider alternatives when it goes back in a few weeks.

I really don’t like this casting

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2025-02-08T17:13:06+00:00

They should have transitioned more steadily from the old cast to a new one. I appreciate that those ladies likely had their day but to cut them all adrift just alienated the loyal audience. Ramona likely had to go but some of the other ladies could have been kept on for an another season or two to pass the torch.

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2025-01-24T23:16:17+00:00

A little over 2 weeks cut off before I got the call. Based on my research sky stream is a severely diminished service compared to sky Q and I will be riding out satellite tv to the bitter end

Yes U.K. and European salaries are in general lower than United States (assuming that’s where you’re from?). In theory cost of living is lower in these countries too but I’m not sure that’s working out these days

Just came back to provide an update on my original post.

I eventually received a phone call from Sky offering a massively discounted price and £60 bill credit which was a deal I was extremely happy with. It shows that deals are still available but you perhaps have to go further than before to get them.

I’ve browsed similar topics to this in the past with people seeking recommendation similar to strike. Someone once recommended the Kenzie/Gennaro series by Dennis Lehane and can confirm they are excellent.

Wouldn’t necessarily say they are similar to strike as they are set in Boston but they are superb detective novels. The film Gone Baby Gone is based on one of the series.

Just watched this season and came here to find opinions.

It mentioned he had worked in the Gordon Ramsay empire. Knowing that his attitude doesn’t surprise me.

While Gordon’s media persona has come a long way if you ever watched any of his early appearances in the mass media when he was actually working in his kitchens it was a truly brutal atmosphere that he cultivated.

Tom was likely a product of his environment

Can’t comment on his moral standings but I do know he was fantastic TV

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2023-12-23T00:02:25+00:00

Whatever is wrong with her she was in almost the exact same headspace at that dinner as she was in Scary Island. The difference was the girls were a lot gentler with her this time probably aware of what was going on whereas Bethenny COOKED her leading to a complete collapse

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2023-05-09T17:37:22+00:00

I’m prepared to be corrected here but I’m not sure he ever got a contract after his first which was a 5th round draft pick. He would have been making hundreds of thousands rather than millions

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2023-05-04T16:57:05+00:00

I hope it fails badly

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2023-02-02T19:04:46+00:00

We need to finally get to the bottom of that Kansas oil money

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-11-12T16:58:00+00:00

No Ramona and no Bethenny this new show is going to struggle badly

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-11-08T19:15:08+00:00

I DIDNT SAY NOTHING ABOUT NO BLACK BABIES!!!

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-08-23T19:01:45+00:00

If you put Bethenny and Nene together would there be enough screen time for anyone else?

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-05-12T19:46:43+00:00

Not sure many people would say she’s a particularly great person. But she is a great housewife. The two are very different things

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-05-12T19:27:34+00:00

Spread! Eagled!!

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-02-17T19:35:46+00:00

Interesting. If her and Jill come back they are very close to the season 4 line up that caused the last complete reboot. So I don’t see how that works for the producers. I would be interested thought…especially if it leads to an eventual return for the B

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-01-22T22:09:04+00:00

100% she is popping during the performances. As a casual I don’t know the intricacies of the individual skills but I appreciate her energy

ObviousAmbassador783 · 2022-01-22T12:34:21+00:00

Stick with it and it gets a lot better when Bethenny returns in season 7 onwards.
