What do you watch in Ramadan?

I am just wondering what are you guys watching during the month of Ramadan. I found that most Arab channels have the same shows exept Algerian TV, Tunisia TV and Sudan TV.
Personally I moved my dish to Hispasat 1 C becuase I can watch Arab stations in addition to the Spanish stations, Few Brazilian Stations and an Argentian channel. I also find Kuwait TV intersting to watch.
The Tv stations from Spain have very good programming but you need to understand Spanish and they have all kind of good shows from Soccer to live music and vey good documentaries.
Somtimes like to wtach what on Telstar 12 like Leonardo World and BVN TV from Holland.

In Ramadan, I am watching Yemen tv for the Attariq serie whitch is a nice serie talking about first islamic foutouhat in north africa and Andalousia (spain) ...

Otherwise little bit from dubai and abu dabi and syria jordan for other stuff ...

Hey bakshish, i have a question for u. can you get atlantic bird 1 and 2 in maryland ??

I can get only Atlantic Bird 1. I used to watch The Iraqui TV there along with a Rusiian station. A house close to me blocks the view to Atlantic bird2.

It is hard to get those birds
actualy in estaern canada, you have to have 8~9 degrees as elevation which is very hard to obtain ....

actualy atlantic bird 2 has interesting french stations TF1 Antenne2 ...

Drac2000, do you receive these Frensh Stations??
Please tell me you do and where are you located.
Thank you

Unfortumately i'm not able to get them
i am in montreal, and atlantic bird 2 requires elevation around 8 degree which is to hard for me to have (I think even impossible).

where are you located ?
If you are located in eastern cost (and more to south) you will have more chances :

Thank you Bakshish for not letting me go crazy with my dish to locate those frech stations....May be one day like what is happening right now with Great Maghreb Stations. Let's enjoy them. Now we have them all.

Drac.

Atlantic Bird 2 has 3 dishes to send satellite signals. one or Europe, one for the Middle East and one for the Americas. Canal + is beamed using the dish aimed toward Europe:

When I lived in Bahrain, I enjoyed the locally-produced serial titled 'Suroor'. It was terrific!
