Wallace offers the Best Seat in the House
VETERAN playwright Ed Wallace has introduced the ultimate Jamaican cable channel with the programmes viewers have been waiting for. That is because he invites viewers to the Best Seat in the House (BSH) where they can watch what they want, when they want.
Best Seat In The House is a totally Jamaican channel operating exclusively on the Internet. Most of the content displayed on the site is free. However, a few special features and events will be offered as Pay-Per-View programmes.
All programmes are available on demand, so subscribers control their viewing schedule.
In the field of sports, current BSH original series include the Sprint Factory — a daily feature highlighting Jamaica’s track and field prowess through interviews with past, present and future athletes; the leading coaches, and capsules of recent events. The programme is hosted by Hubert Lawrence.
‘The Sports Table’, meanwhile, is a discussion programme on topical issues and events with special guests and experts. In Champs 100, BSH chronologically documents one of the outstanding aspects of Jamaican sporting history.
Then there is ‘Reggaerobics’, an exclusive feature which provides an exciting aerobics workout with a party vibe, driven by popular Jamaican rhythms and dance moves.
‘The Music Makers’ is an informal chat with someone who has made, is still making or is expected to make a major contribution to the vibrant Jamaican music scene.
‘4-Teenz’ is is a weekly half-hour programme for teens, hosted by teens. Here, teenagers have a platform to address their concerns, personal, societal and political issues while focusing on matters that affect them directly.
Also, coming soon on the channell is the original series called ‘Trippin’ & Sippin’, where the host takes a celebrity guest on an island tour, stopping at the guest’s favourite “hang-outs”, popular attractions and hotels to sip the sponsor’s products and interact with people they meet.
‘Eat Jamaican Brief’ is an encounter with Jamaican cooks, chefs, popular and not-so-popular eateries to sample and expose exciting menus to the viewing audience.
Other programmes include ‘Newsmakers’ with host Carol Narcisse who talks to persons who are currently in the headlines; ‘My Jamaican Girl/My Jamaican Guy’ where the cameras are everywhere spotting Jamaican girls and guys with that “special look”.
‘Comedy Clash’ is a popular programme featuring Jamaican comedians in head-to-head confrontations, while ‘Jammin’ is a weekly jam session featuring some of the island’s leading musicians.
‘The Funny Side’ is a half-hour sitcom showing life in Jamaica as only we can live it — sometimes serious, but funny.
