This whole Paintball on TV has be asked so many times, to be honest... if paintball was to be shown on TV lots more people would be getting into it more, which yes is good news for the shops and sites, but bad news for the sport as it will becoming a popular and be well talked about thing at college's etc... (my view)

I watch it online with a headset. Get good sound through these! :) I've also seen a bit of live paintball from my PC which is'nt half bad.

If anything shows on TV paintball wise its going to be all that woodland crap anyway, they already have a show thats aired or was aired anyway, you can now pick it up on TV on demand with Virgin Media. Its called Xfire. That also gives paintball a bad name! watch it and you'll understand

Indeedy to a certain extent my friend. Its happening at the moment round my way, You can look it at it different sorts of views.

More people getting into paintball, buying the equipment and getting themselfs to the walkon is all good good.

Seeing paintball and wanting a paintball gun is bad bad. I'm not avolving this around Television now, But paintball only wants to attract the same target market as its been achieving in the past years. Paintball on TV can attract new healthy players which is all great, great for the shops.. great as in new players and great for the sites, but the moment it falls into the rong hands. It starts to get tricky.

A few people round my way have paintball guns, and I know for sure they are not paintballers.

I'd disagree. The type of people who are going to misuse a paintball gun aren't going to need to see it on tv to get the idea.
well if its anything like the scrotes my end who misuse guns then they aint going to be watching it on sky as they havnt got the money to pay for sky:D

This has been done so many times now its in a coffin 6ft under with a 1 ton headstone above it, paintball wont be going on telly its boring to watch. I can just about manage to watch half hour to an hour of a dvd and i enjoy the game!!!.
