Taking the risk of 'alienating the core market' is what pioneers and creative individualists do, Bob! If you don't go out on a limb, you never get the chance to be the first to tap into, and cater for, needs that the viewers themselves didn't know they had until you started providing for them. Sometimes it pays to lead, not follow. And then, even if it blows up in your face, at the end of the day, at least you can say: 'We truly tried something different.' Channels not 'alienating the core market' is the reason why we currently have more shows than ever, all serving up the babe show equivalent of ready salted crisps, with only minute differences existing between the crisp bag designs. I know, I know, so easy for me to sit here and say all that, when it's not me putting my arse on the line.

Hmm...I'd agree that Bang Babes and Elite are a little more polished currently, but they have had a decent amount of time to get where they are now to be fair. Considering the newly hatched Club Paradiso has barely existed for two days, taken it's first steps and already has a high quality picture with a nice streamlined graphic, decent webstream, no invasive advertising and a very solid lineup of girls I'll give credit where it's due! Couple that with Bob Esquire not being afraid to communicate with his customers and I think the show has a lot of potential to do well

AMEN! I am bloody sick of plain Ryvita shows masquerading as sex flavoured Kettle Chips

There's no way any unencrypted channel is going to revolutionise phone-in shows and start waving around wizard's sleeves and glass dildos any time soon, but considering the two ends of the spectrum a.) Make as much money as possible by offering the bare minimum b.) Make as much money as possible by having as much fun as is feasible with your pants on...way too many producers sit firmly in the a.) camp polishing their proverbial turds. It's a shame too because there are some great girls who work on these channels that I know are dirty minxtrels dying to be unleashed a little

Of course you've gotta get on the boat before you rock it, but personally I'd like to see a channel inject a little kink back into the mix! It would be nice to see a little spank, tickle and mischief, ice cubes, handcuffs and the return of the bondage rope, a couple of girls focusing on doing some kinky text requests for a slice of the show ...and other such deviant yet mild activities. What's the point in erotica without some proper HP sauce anyway? Get saucy Bob!

Let's see some striptease action!

The Boffins, have had their head in the books for months now and the term they keep using is ‘Roll out…’ whatever that sodding well means. Roll out this feature then roll out that feature. Anyway they say we shouldn’t ‘alienate the core market’ and we have to ‘take our time with the old editorial gambits.’. All gobbledegook to me y’know, the double speaking ginger bastards! All I know is that as long as there are girls on camera I remain a very happy proprietor…

I'm sorry but this to me smacks of trying to keep people watching in the hope something different may happen.

If the "boffins" have been taking any notice of the core market, they would know that the very same core market is a little jaded with the same old format and are gagging for something different.

Elite did it at the beginning and you only have to look at the Elite thread to see the reaction that got in the early days of that channel.

Basically, you come out punching and try to make an impression from the word go.

Having seen bits and pieces from last night, I don't hold out much hope that there will be anything radically different about the channel and while this may sound a bit harsh, I really do fail to see the point of anyone starting yet another babe channel just to follow the same old tired format.

yawn, little to much hype for something we all seen before,

Yes I'll vote for that.

Just put on some good looking, different girls that have not been on other channels before. Then you have a winner as the picture quality is good and on screen graphics are not overly annoying.

So if we're comparing channels to football clubs, this channel would be like spurs, promises much yet mediocre at best.

That's the take on it for now anyway. An average show, not terrible but certainly not great.

Now look here. I'll take an awful lot of flak but calling the old Lilywhites 'mediocre' is beyond the pale, old boy.

Best start in 70 years, playing 2 genuine wingers, 2 strikers and a playmaker in midfield, why it fair takes me back to the glory, glory days of Greaves and Gilzean with old Danny Blanchflower himself with his one legged slide tackles, his 40 yard passes, his brylcreemed hair, soft brogue and erudite wit, push and run, bought the game forward 40 years, pass and move and style and elegance, my first E-Type, old Mrs Paradiso, mini skirts, Stringfellows first club......

...forgive me. I quite forgot myself for a moment. To put it bluntly if I were you I would just leave the Hotspurs right out of it! I'll take a shoeing on your terms if you insist Sir, but insulting a man's football team is beyond reproach. Wouldn't suprise me, Sir, if you, Sir were nothing more than a red-necked Australian.

There. I said it.

Good Evening to you.

and it's Mister Bloody Paradiso to you.

Nobody can say you lack a sense of humor Bob.
