Does anyone else want to see better weekend programming on MSNBC?

[Just One Woman]

Is anyone else tired of seeing continual "Lockups" programming and looking for additional news sources and political analysts every weekend? I know I am. Come on MSNBC. Your viewers are going to other sources on the weekends. Be the "progressive" news source we need, all the time.

1. Absolutely!

Nothing makes me tune out faster than seeing Lockup starting on Friday night, and I don't come back until Monday afternoon. That's a lot of lost time, as far as they're concerned, advertising, etc.

2. They should just replay Keith, Rachel and Ed all weekend.

But then again, General Electric has huge contracts with private prisons.

4. Hell yes, 10 times better than watching prison shows!

5. Amen to that!

3. Yes I do

I really have no patience for the whole "crime as entertainment" trend.

I think Nancy Grace and the judges that allow cameras in the courtroom should be locked up, metaphorically speaking.

I would work as a news anchor for MSNBC for free if the would just replace Lockdown with something relevant to a news channel.

6. Not really. Weekends are times for watching movies

and being entertained. If they had decent weekend programming, I'd probably tune in sometimes, but that isn't necessarily a good thing.
