Barbara Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I thought I would start a thread on Belgian television seeing that I didn't find one. So Belgians, what TV shows (whether they are Belgian or foreign) do you watch? Do you sometimes watch French channels too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicky2 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I thought I would start a thread on Belgian television seeing that I didn't find one. So Belgians, what TV shows (whether they are Belgian or foreign) do you watch? Do you sometimes watch French channels too? I don't often watch the French channels, I really hate it how they dub everything so I only watch them when there is a French movie on that I like. The only real Belgian show that I watch are still FC de Kampioenen but I don't like it as much as I used too. Where the foreign shows are concerned I like Home and Away, obviously, and also Smallville, Supernatural, Bones, 24, Prison Break, Without a Trace, According to Jim and sometimes The Simpsons. What about you ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Silly me, I forgot to answer my own question! I don't often watch the French channels, I really hate it how they dub everything so I only watch them when there is a French movie on that I like. I watch both French and Belgian channels. I always went to a French school. So, when I was little, I watched French channels most of the time because I couldn't follow the Dutch subtitles. I could read in Dutch but I didn't have time to read the subtitles, they changed so fast. But since I'm 10, I watch Dutch channels more often. I still watch French channels. I like the French TV shows Sous le soleil and RIS, Police scientifique, the TV movies Julie Lescaut and Joséphine, ange gardien and the talk show La méthode Cauet. I'm not a big fan of dubbed shows either. But sometimes French channels air new American shows or new episodes before Dutch ones (TF1 aired One Tree Hill a year before Kanaaltwee did and Club RTL aired new episodes of Gilmore Girls before Kanaaltwee did). Then, I watch it in French. Sometimes French channels air several episodes of one TV show at night (e.g. 3 episodes of CSI, 2 of Desperate Housewives) then I like watching it too. The only real Belgian show that I watch are still FC de Kampioenen but I don't like it as much as I used too. Where the foreign shows are concerned I like Home and Away, obviously, and also Smallville, Supernatural, Bones, 24, Prison Break, Without a Trace, According to Jim and sometimes The Simpsons. What about you ? Me too. I liked the old seasons with Jacques Vermeire better. DDT is so much better than Fernand or BTW (he was horrible). I also watch Witse. Otherwise, I watch Home & Away, Gilmore Girls, One Tree Hill, Friends, CSI, Charmed, Supernatural, The O.C., Desperate Housewives, Las Vegas, Full House...

superman's girlfriend Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 ^Aha! The muscles from Brussels! I watched French cartoons when i was little but i went to Flemish schools > ages ago! Much has improved like for example the internet. The thing is, French channels delete the original voices and use their own multiple voices.it's kinda boring but funny somehow?? I used to watch House M.D. but they're showing us recaps over and over again so why bother? My most hated channel would be vtm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 VRT will stop airing FC De Kampioenen in 2011. We'll have to say goodbye to Carmen, Xavier, Pascale, Boma etc. Here is the article: click me. There's also a video with bloopers. I really like watching the show. I'll miss it. But I can still look forward to the next two seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Known as FKAJ Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Does The Adventures of Tintin count? Even if he had a Canadian accent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Sure. I loved watching Tintin (Kuifje in Dutch) when I was younger. I've never watched it in English though so I wouldn't know about the accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
