Look, TV producer-bots. Let’s just cut to the chase: Gladiatorial combat. To the death. None of this “voted off the island” shit. Stop pussyfooting around. You know you want to do it.
I want to watch Scrubs, because I like the likable characters.
But when the nasty guys come on screen I change the channel.
I have no time for bullies like the janitor and the mean head doctor.
I’m 23 and I actually have seen the show. I love Ashley Tisdale, and (I’m not going to consult imdb before I say this because I think she is over 18) Brenda Song is really hot too, IMO. That said, the plot is horrible. I think the producer’s are aiming that Brenda plays a hotel heiress named London Tipton (London Tipton, get it? GET IT?1?!? ) is witty enough to produce endless laughs.
It doesn’t.
I really messed up the final sentence in my above post. You catch my drift, though.
I’ve wandered past this show a few times over the years, and as a musician all I can think is, Who the hell wants to watch people audition for a mediocre wedding band all day long?
Three shows in 100 words exactly (starting after this parenthese):
Larry King- If his guest was Jesus Christ he’d ask him “Would you consider yourself a spiritual person?” and “What do your parents think of your career?”
Carson Daly- Who decided this guy needed a career that didn’t require a hair net? He can’t interview, he’s ignorant, stupid, and he takes up oxygen and kidneys that other people could use.
**Tyler Perry’s ** House of Payne- Every episode is warmed over SMALL WONDER/CARTER COUNTRY quality jokes and “But seriously folks, crack is a problem that affects everybody…" self righteous PSAs, plus M’dea was funny for twelve minutes five years ago.
“It was then that I realized why I hate Kyle XY, and why I don’t watch shows on the Family Channel.”
I don’t watch much TV. But I’m glad others do, because reading this thread has given me several minutes of pleasure and for that, I’m truly thankful.
My husband watches CSI. I can endure maybe 5 minutes of the one with William Peterson. But if David Caruso enters the picture, I go all spasmodic and start shooting. Why does David Caruso get to be on TV? Is the world being punished?
She’s 20. You’re in the clear.
Wow. For Mr Bus Guy to advocate bus-busting … wow.
Law & Order (+ associated spinoffs). There isn’t an ounce of compassion in any of the regular characters (c.f. an ep with a conniving 13 year old, and all everyone wants to do is expose his lies and nail him, and NOBODY speaks up with concern for his future, no talk of redemption, nothing). The characters are all static and develop nary a smidgen over the course of the show, and the plots all gratuitiously predictable in their banality. Never has a more pat, boring, and one dimensional drama made it to the small screen, yet millions watch it every week.
[And before someone chimes in with the “Well don’t watch it!” My roommate has it on all the time, as compensation for the times I’ve had the likes of Buffy on.]
Bill O’Reilly, please attempt self-fellatio, succeed, and choke to death.

I salute you.
In addition L&O, baby, I’m gonna tell you this 'cause I love(d) ya. Either shape up the “ripped from the headlines” angle or ship out.
Episode 2’s RFTHs “Lawman-Sues-Over-Pants/Big-Box-Store-Plays-Big-Brother/Also-Sells-Poisoned-Toothpaste was bad enough. But last week’s “Don’t Snitch/Rich-White-Mom-Drives-Kids-To-Confrontation/Black-Queens-Man-Kills-White-Boy/We’ll-Throw-In-A-Noose-Incident/Wait-Not-Enough-Little-Girl-Is-Innocent-Bystander/We’re-Dealing-With-Gentrification/Convict-Both-Rich-Mom-And-Black-Dad-In- Equal-Justice-Angle was, shall we say, gilding the done turkey. WTH! RFTHs is like fine perfume, honey; it don’t take much.
NBC moved you to Friday night, trying to kill you. Because I love you, I wish they had.

I do not know what the HELL you’re talking about. Everybody knows L & O was cancelled years ago, two years after Claire Kincaid was killed in the automobile accident. Jerry Orbach, Sam Waterston, S. Epatha Merkerson, Stephen Hill, Benjamin Bratt, and Carey Lowell simultaneously decided they had told all the stories they had to tell, and Dick Wolf decided to take the rest of his career off.

(Microsoft Word says that’s 100 words. And I don’t really hate her that much. Her show was just the only thing that came to mind at the moment.)
