I've recently been tuning in to TeleMadrid via the Internet. I must say I'm shocked how biased it is against the socialist government. Every news item seemed to be making some sort of point against the Prime Minister, or strongly criticising government policy. According to TeleMadrid, it seems that under Mr Zapatero the end of Spain as we know it is nigh!

Hi Bricamb! Sorry, but we have a "NO POLITICS" policy here. I nearly had to shut down the message board at one time because of the hostility it yields, nearly turning our travel board into a political venting post. Please refrain. Thanks for understanding.
Saludos, MadridMan

Yes! I like that program too! It's called Taxi, Taxi . It's a good way to learn or test your knowledge of Madrid (and Spain, I think) while testing your level of Spanish. It's very entertaining. Saludos, MadridMan

Sorry I missed Taxi, Taxi while I was there but I did enjoy Metro a Metro. Great way to not only learn more Spainsh but get to know the city and some history as well. I've been trying to fing it on the net but no luck yet.

I love Telemadrid. The programs they have are in my opinion the best of all public TV stations in Spain. MADRID DIRECTO for example has been so good that even TVE1 has adapted its own version ESPAÑA DIRECTO.

Bfffff...for me it is REALLY HARD not to complain about what Telemadrid has become in the last four years, but I have to respect what MadridMan says about politics in this forum. But yes, TeleMadrid is unique, not only in Spain but also in Europe.It is not very easy to find din Europe channels with characters like Sanchez Dragó, and...

And every morning - like RIGHT NOW - I try to watch the morning program from 9:30 to about 11:30am. When I say watch I mean I have it on the TV behind me while I work and I'll spin my head around when something sounds interesting.

Bricamb, right now TeleMadrid's union employees have been on strike on and off for the last week, leaving merely a black screen on the channel and with a lower streaming banner and an explanation that the channel is "offline" because of the strike. I'm not sure what the workers want but probably the usual things, better salaries, better working conditions, etcetera. This morning, instead of watching my favorite 9:30am - noon TeleMadrid news I'm watching TVE1 with an all politics debate and information. (yawn!) I like the TVE Spanish news but not so much their morning show. I like to see what's happening in Madrid, construction projects, the people, and all Madrid news on TV. It's funny to me that (normally!) immediately after the 9:30am - noon TeleMadrid news they show an episode of "WALKER: Texas Ranger" (starring Chuck Norris karate kicking everyone into submission - when he's not using his pistol, that is). Saludos, MadridMan

I've just discovered, while updating/modernizing the MadridMan's Spain TV, Music, & Movies Page, that Telemadrid is now broadcasting BOTH the TeleMadrid SAT channel as well as the local, normal, Telemadrid TV station ONLINE via their website. UPDATE: Sorry, folks. I just discovered that Telemadrid (local) only broadcasts certain programs and not 24 hours. Sorry about that! Saludos, MadridMan
