OK, check out this.
Then come back and talk about what utter shit these people want us to watch. I don’t care if family-friendlyness is your big thing – but to try to claim Billy-Ray Cyrus vehicle, Lifetime-watcher masturbation fodder syrup crapfest “Doc” is a better show then the notoriously well shot and written James Caan-helmed ensamble piece Las Vegas? Come on. And I don’t even want to get into “Reba”
Some of their pan picks are dead on, tho. Fear factor may well be the devil.
————————————
As a young man, I plug into the tube, but the stench of all that pretense I cannot muddle through.
I lay on my back and scan the radio all that comes out my speakers is a steady syrup flow.
I suck information through the holes in my skull as my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full.
I stood by watching and I seen ’em come and go. I seen ’em make that million then vanish in the snow.
They come upon you like a pack of rabid hounds as they slobber in your ears and purge you with their sounds.
Pushing misinformation through the holes in my skull my belly gurgles nauseous and still my mouth is full.
I am Antipop; I’ll run against the grain till the day I drop. I am the Antipop; the man you cannot stop.
Yeah, man…yeah…….
basically they’re promoting “bury your head in the sand” t.v. honestly, most of the shows, whether “good” or “bad” are crap.
don’t ask me, I’m the one who lets her 5 y/o watch CSI — but in my defense, we watch it together, and talk about it, so does that make it “family fare?”
heh. as far as their “best” goes, I can’t stand any of them other than Bernie Mac.
but, yes… I do think that Fear Factor may have been a deal negotiated by the devil.
Phase 1: Process pablum for the masses.
Phase 2:
Phase 3: Profit.
Jesus Christ! American Idol is about as far from good family viewing as I am from being a hot-bodied celebrity 2 seconds away from taking on Ashlee Simpson and Estelle Getty in a bizarre (too hot for TV) three way checkers tourney.
TV is wretched. Fleener bought one and now I feel like not watching it is a sin.
That 70’s Show is funny! I detest that it made the “worst” list. Damn them! And Reba? Over That 70’s Show? *shakes fist of anger*
Been guilty of watchin’ the Surreal Life a few times, especially when Ron Jeremy was on, LOL! TOO funny! 🙂
How about the 25 Million Dollar Hoax. That was a hoax of a show.
hey. miss ya, bro. yeah. i’m slidin again. pretty badly, too. i was real good for awhile, and now…not so much. that’s all. just sharin. shits and giggles, yo.
I didn’t go to Casper…I didn’t have time. Instead I hung at home. 2 hours away from C-town.
Hope you had a good T-day!
My fucking lord. The “best” shows are downright frightening, and the “worst” shows are for the most part, not quite as bad.
The people who decided this…were they alive?
I think that your analysis is dead on….
