Shows and Additional Details
- As well as British and American programming, the channel has aired a number of international programmes. These include Last Man Standing and The Nominees from Australia; Charlie Jade, a co-production between Canada and South Africa; and the Flemish series Matrioshki, which was shown with subtitles.
- For several weeks starting on the 5 December 2005, FX carried a strand of programming from the Fox-owned American channel FUEL TV. The strand was identified as "FX Presents FUEL TV", and made use of FUEL TV's US branding graphics. The strand ran for an hour from 10am, and was repeated in the early hours of the following morning.
- The channel's 2 hour timeshift service, FX +, was joined on Sky by FX +1 on 10 December 2007. The branding of sister timeshift channel FX + had not been changed to reflect this, causing confusion due to the two being very similar in name (FX +, FX +1), with viewers assuming a mistake or a double-over of the channel. On Monday 28 April 2008, FX +1 ceased broadcasting and its slot was replaced with FX HD.
- On 1 September 2008, to coincide with Sky's EPG reshuffle, FX + became a 1 hour timeshift.
- In February 2009, FX launched their first original program entitled 'No Signal'. The show is similar to the Channel 4 show The Kevin Bishop Show. This is because the layout is set out as a SKY TV system.
- D-Smart on FX HD broadcast will begin on 11 November

Famous quotes containing the words shows, additional and/or details:
“Depression moods lead, almost invariably, to accidents. But, when they occur, our mood changes again, since the accident shows we can draw the world in our wake, and that we still retain some degree of power even when our spirits are low. A series of accidents creates a positively light-hearted state, out of consideration for this strange power.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“The world will never be long without some good reason to hate the unhappy; their real faults are immediately detected, and if those are not sufficient to sink them into infamy, an additional weight of calumny will be superadded.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“If my sons are to become the kind of men our daughters would be pleased to live among, attention to domestic details is critical. The hostilities that arise over housework...are crushing the daughters of my generation....Change takes time, but men’s continued obliviousness to home responsibilities is causing women everywhere to expire of trivialities.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
