RE: Naked Babestation review
As a general point, I like the channel and indeed watch it probably more than any other adult channel I subscribe to.
Some personal observations on the channel...
Pro
- proper live shows every night. Either as Naked Babestation, or at weekend/special dates they have live sex shows
- good selection of talent that we've seen on their main channels and elsewhere
- good at bringing new beauties to the screen
- never shy of a close up camera angle
- they've largely scraped showing that awful US soft porn shite
Con
- as with all adult channels, suffers from massive repeat syndrome
- recent trend of far too much b/g content (it's just personally not what I want to watch)
- shame they never kept up the strength of the early 2010 content
- too quick to change tact - e.g. the XXX Cam was a good experiment that they didn't give enough time to
- advertise the crap out of the show or it's content on the main channels
- some of the european g/g stuff is the very tame edit editions, but also they invariably show this at the wrong screen ratio

I agree with most of that . . . however - I now only watch for the live shows because the strength and quality of the rest of their output is nowhere near as goos as it was. I also tend to disagree with "never shy of a close up camera angle" - I watched the first live show last night and it was very clear that whenever there was a bit of girl-girl rubbing going on the cameraman was quick to find an angle that didn't show this, ending up showing the standard side-on you can see that something is being rubbed but not what it is shot.
Now maybe this depends on the cameraman for the evening, or the producer for the evening, but certainly last night any stronger content was moved quickly away from.
I also find myself increasingly more and more annoyed by the constant over-hyped and misleading adverts, to the point where I have been cross enough to not bother watching of an evening cos I'm turning into a grumpy old man!! The reasoning goes along the lines of why should I support a channel that blatantly lies to it's customers. As an example, I may have missed her but they have been relentlessly plugging the appearance on the live show this bank holiday weekend of Megan Coxx, but as far as I can tell it never happened. No reason provided. And she was still being plugged during last nights show. Where was she?
Bit rambly that. Sorry!
(Of course, if she's on tonight I'll be eating humble pie!!!)

RE: Naked Babestation review
Clarification points...
- close up camera angle is only relevant in solo naked babestation shows. Accept it's very rare when it's 2 or more girls or the live sex shows.
- I wasn't attempting to gloss over the constant hype/advertising, I just felt a review of the actual content was more the intent of this thread. Although I did make mention of it in the con list. But if I'm wrong, then my apologies.
Megan Coxxx didn't appear as scheduled for her girl/girl show, although sexy Sasha was a very welcome substitute in my book. Things do change from time to time and we're not always going to be aware too far in advance. They did post in the relevant thread on this forum that it was Sasha not Megan.
PS. If all us grumpy old men didn't watch or call in to these channels, they'd likely go out of business. I'm proud to be slowly evolving my level of grumpiness at the whole world and not just these babe channels

RE: Naked Babestation review
Things they could do better musings....
- Bring back XXX Cam, every night, for say 2 x 20min shows.
- Move to regular multiple Naked Babestation shows - they're showing 2 x 20min and 1 x 30 min usually, but every so often they show 5 x 27min. They should do more of these nights, say at least 2 a week.
- Theme nights for particular babes - they've done these to some degree, but not so it's very apparent.
- Series nights - where there's enough content, show all of a series - e.g. Karina's Class of Arse, back to back.
- Vary the set for Naked Babestation shows, but avoid dark sets (or at least light the shower cubicle properly)
- Offer linked subscription between TV channel and website so you can watch harder web-only content
- Expand their strategic partnerships to other channels/suppliers - e.g. Relish, Playboy, etc.
I'm sure others here have many things they can suggest to help the channel re-think some of it's current output and get back onto a more solid foundation that will please more of the viewers more of the time...

Sorry to harp on but two simple things they could do that would transform most people's opinion of BSX
1) Stop lying in their promoting of shows (eg Geri "you'll get to see me naked, no hands hiding anything"). I suppose technically its not a LIE cos she does get naked and the hands don't hide any interesting shots, but that is ONLY because she sits there side-on with her legs firmly closed. So I guess what I mean is be aware of the SPIRIT of the law, as well as the LETTER of the law.
And
2) I accept that sometimes things happen to change schedules, but when they do they should a) inform people on ALL their platforms (here and TV especially) and b) STOP ADVERTISING THE THING THAT ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!! eg the Megan thing this past weekend, and the Porscha / Demetri boy/girl show that never happened.
