Maybe the title is a bit extreme but the channel Im talking about is the Fox Movie Channel. I was watching "10 Things I hate about You" and they are now taking commerical breaks during the movies. They are also cutting scenes out and yes, have cut out pretty much all the swearing.

Basically, Fox Movie Channel, which is another name by the way, is no longer like HBO or Starz or Encore. Now, its like every other channel that shows movies. There no different than USA, Bravo or FX.

They ruined their channel a few months ago.They used to be quite good,now they're just another channel I avoid.

Didn't they rename themselves "FXM"?

MTV2 is the same way. I try watching Saved by the Bell and Boy Meets World but they edit parts of episodes out and I think they air them out of order. When are networks going to stop that??!!! NOBODY LIKES IT!!!

I occasionally watch Boy Meets World on MTV2, never thought I'd be watching one of the MTV networks!

Its gotten worse with MTV2. Not only do they air episodes out of order but they edit the hell out of the episodes. Cut scenes out and air commericals at different times of the episodes.
