So say there is something you'd want to see After Heroes. You flick to the channel at the Advertised Time only to see the Tail End of Heroes. A tricky ploy to try to get you Hooked in the show, as the tail end is always a Cliff Hanger end.

They do it not only on those Major series, but also the dumb soaps. And that means, Neighbours and Home & Away down here. As well as the so-called Current Affair shows - right where they tell you what they have on tomorrow.
