I've been watching this channel in Oman. It's 24 hour commercial-free catwalks. I'm wondering whether you get it in Saudi. Anybody getting it in Saudi on OrbitNet?

Fashion TV? Yes of course, you can get it on Orbit no probs. It's the closest to (verrrrry) soft porn you can get without paying extra, LOL. I think it's ch 49, but anyway if you look you will find it.

Mrs. B giving me a dirty look here....no, not because I mention the P word, but because I describe FTV in such terms!!!!!!!!

Is this a big concern for Saudi job seekers?

You can get the whole range including Orbit, HotBird etc. Oh yes and there are plenty of "nature" programs available.

I expect it is guy thing...

Personally I think 24 fashion TV would be about as 'fascinating' as the hours of camel racing on Emirates TV.

I was about to say what Bebsi said, only he got there first. For some odd reason, "Fashion TV" seems a lot more interested in the latest fashions in lingerie, than in say, overcoats or cardies.

Maybe this is why it's unavailable during Ramadhan? But if it's not OK in Ramadhan, it shouldn't be OK any time, no?

Your theory sounds correct Cleo, even though I am an avid fashionista with an Orbit business on the side....I think I will speak to Mohammmed Al Orbit bin Ibrahim about that tomorrow.

Here in Oman, FTV Arabia is running a long video of the Rio Carnival. You know, floatloads of lusty, bare-breasted Brazilian babes bumping and grinding in g-strings. Man, I can't believe they wouldn't censor that in Saudi...are you getting it?

One thing about ALPH... when he is wrong - which is most of the time - he is really wrong. But, one does get a good laugh at his ignorance...

Hey boundforsaudi... I can't believe that they don't censor it in Oman... they would in the US. Laughing

Fashion TV and Midnight Hot replaced MTV at my compound in Saudi last year and disappeared a few months later. Midnight Hot was just a repitition of outtakes from topless photoshoots.

Given your palpable excitement at the Omani version of juvenile soft porn, it appears that you might be the one not getting it...
