Title: American Idol is really starting to piss me off...
Post by: makenzie71 on February 21, 2007, 07:10:14 PM
Ok so I'm not an American Idol fan...but there are a lot of things I'm not a fan of and they don't piss me off, be they're not shoved in my face everytime I turn around.  Plus they keep bumping real shows just to play hours worth of this bullshit.  Another episode of house won't be out until March...same with Bones...this is so that they can play 50 hours a week of American Idol.  Fun shaZam!.

Don't watch it then. :laugh: :laugh:

Just Kidding.Actually I think That shaZam! should have been Pulledoff of the Air a long time Ago.Along with Survivor,Fear Factor and Now that Damn show with Howie Mandel.They should have One Channel for all of that stuff and Golf,Football,Basketball,Baseball,Sycronized Swimming,the Olympics when it comes Time for it and Shark Week. :thumb: Sorry if I piss someone off but I just have Basic Cable and Pretty well just watch TCM,PBS,NBC when My name is Earl is on,Fox only when the Simpsons and King of the Hill is on and only a few other Misc. things.The rest is Just Trash to me.I think I could stand Jerry Springer making fun of White Trash before I coud watch Anything Pertaining to Reality TV. :mad:

OK Rant Over.Next?

basic cable?  I don't even have that.  When American Idol is on it's like the president is making a speech.

Worse than the idol crap is the anna nicole smith bullshit.

I'd rather see the President make a Speech. :laugh: :laugh: Basic Cable Here isn't much more than Rabbit Ears by the time you erase all of the Unwanted Channels 2-4 Jesus Channels,The Ghey Boy Channel (Bravo),The Piss and Moan Channel (Lifetime),The Monk Rerun Channel (USA),The Deer Urine Soaked Sweaty Teddy Praying to the Turkey Gods Channel (Outdoor Channel),The Nascar/POS Chopper Show Channel (Speed),Crap Sports Network (FSN),,One Public Bulletin Board that Plays Elevator Music and Gives you Ads for Spegetti Suppers from 2 Months Ago,The Cops Rerun Channel (Court TV) there's a Few More that I have Completely Deleted.Turner Classic movies is Pretty much it but the 31 Days off Oscar isn't coming up with too many Westerns.That leaves North Carolina PBS and they are Running a Marathon.Damn i'm ready to shoot myself. :laugh: :2guns: :2guns:

When I'm at home I only watch TNT between 3am and 7am...X-Files and Angel.  Nothing on in the daytime except on TMC (they had the pink submarine on yesterday...so awesome).

I usually try to catch the X Files on the Horrible worse than B Rated Horror movie Channel(Sci Fi) Around 2 AM.Most days If nothings going on I go to my Uncles house and Catch Gunsmoke,Bonanza and Green Acres on TV land during the Evening. :thumb:they should have a Channel Strictly for Gunsmoke and Bonanza. :laugh: :laugh: Hell I'd even like to watch Little House on the Prarie again.I used to Look Forward to that when I was Growing up when it was on TBS back in the late 80's and Early 90's.I still remember watching it on Antenna and black and White tv before the reruns. :thumb:

Does Anyone remember Captain USA on USA back in the late 80's.He used to Host Horror/Sci Fi Movies Every Saturday around 1PM.I always went to my Grandmaw's house and Watch him.I believe that was before Gilbert Godfries Up all night.Damn I feel Old. :cry:

Edit Done a Search and I know I'm old Now it was Commander USA. :thumb:

I had just about forgot Grandpa Munster on TBS. :thumb: I believe he was Around until about the same time as Commander USA.I'd even like to see some of those 1 900 Commercials that they used to have on TV where you could Call and Listen to your Favorite TV Show Host Talk. :cookoo: :cookoo: Which Gave way to the 900 numbers for Phone Sex. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Geez things were simple back then. :laugh: :laugh:

I don't get to see Maverick or Have Gun will Travel.Wild Wild West was a Good one but the reruns didn't last too long for it.They  don't Show the Old Black and White Gunsmokes with Chester in them either. :dunno_white: I'd like to know Why? :dunno_white:

Guess what, there is a BONANZA channel on Astra digital satelite !  :cookoo:

There are about 300 other channels as well most of it is pure drivel, absolute crap. I subsribe mainly for Soccer & Cricket around the globe. When Sat first became widely available in the 80s there was a big debate one side saying more choice, more competition, better TV and the other saying there would be a dilution of quality dumbing down to "Tabloid-TV"

Well we know who was right. having said that, last night i watched my Soccer team playing away in the European Champions league, one of many such games and i had the choice which I doubt I would have had. So better "event" coverage but much poorer general entertainment programmes, especially all this reality crap. What frightens me is next time some city wants to employ a park-keeper, or a firm wants to hire a plumber/baker/whatever we will have a TV show about it.

I can see it now, Parisien Park-Keeper, Baker for Bakersville or Barber for Seville, ooooops sorry already been done........

You know what really pisses me off about "reality" TV?  It's not real.  Not one reality show is actually realistic.  Except for fear factor...

House is good, Bones is so bad that I might actually rather watch American Idol.
I mostly watch TV on Mondays this season:
24 and Heroes... on at the same time. :2guns:


...thank god for DVR :thumb:

*Bonus fact: In a recent survey it was discovered the 94% of American women lost their virginity to Jack Bauer. The other 6% were incredibly fat or ugly.

Am idol = POS, so is survivor, apperentice, amazing race, Big brother pretty much all reality crap.
Somehow some idiot thought it was a great idea and now there is a 1000 of them and none of them have anything to do with reality.
BTW the spilled over reality into bikes and sheite is BS too. monster garage was OK but rest is all BS.
Cool.
