Showtime Showseries 1 Suspiciously Similar to MBC Action


Showseries 1 vs. MBC Action

Has anyone else noticed how similar showtime's new layout is to MBC's, especially their Showseries. Well Showseries 1 is practically an exact copy of MBC Action which launched about a month ago. It shows the same programs for goodness sake, I'm just surprised they haven’t called it Showtime Action!

I understand how Showtime might be in desperate need for ideas, especially with so much competition in the market, but who would be (stupid) enough to actually PAY for exactly the same shows on Showtime when they can watch it on the 'original' channel MBC- free to air!

I just hope this is a sign of desperation on Showtime's part and not the good TV-viewing people.

    Actually, it's the other way around, Showtime Showseries 1 was Previously named 'Tv Land' (they switched to the new name on April 1st)& it has been avalible for a number of years now, since showtime first started.

    The article writer is 100% correct. Showtime has newer episodes but it costs a fortune. The entire mbc group is FREE. If you subscribe for showime your wasting your money on something you can get for free
