The state of TV Shows

Is it me, or is TV just complete shit these days.

Yes a few good dramas are leaking through the cracks of the recession like Eutopia and In the Flesh, but most TV shows these days are really, really pointless. Especially when it comes to ITV, which is considered one of the two biggest programmes on British TV around.

Over the past like month, two shows have appeared on TV that have got slated by audiences and wondered just why it got made. Those are Your Face Sounds Familiar and You Saw Them Here First. Two shows which I don't watch but I know about because people complain about how bad they really are.

And it's starting to effect all genres. Comedies like Vicious, that was not even funny, or Tipping Poing in the game show world. Even kids programmes like In The Night Garden. All are rubbish and a complete waste of time. What happened to the good old days with shows like Fawlty Towers or Play Your Cards Right. Shows that you could enjoy with your family, that were just a hell of a lot of good crazy fun, that you could genuinely have a laugh at. Nowhere, because they think we want to watch idiots make even bigger idiots out of themselves, and we give it to them.

Things like Paddy Mcguiness try to be funny, or Simon Cowell's smug face in every reality show ever going. Speaking of reality, why is it every Saturday night of every month practically something reality has to be on? This is what is bring the TV state down, they are thinking of anything they can, just to earn money. Which idiot thought. Hey I know, lets make a programme that has people dressing up as singing and singing songs. Yeah, that was called Stars in Their Eyes mate, and it was a dam sight better then the piece of shit you made.

Yes I know we are in a recession, but come on. There's got to be a line or a bar or something to make people think. This is no good at all. I don't want to watch this. And yet they still do. That's what pisses me off the most. They watch it and then complain about it. Here's a hint. If you don't want it to be on. Don't fucking watch it. Then they'll cancel it.  

Seriously with everything that's coming on. You can probably walk up to a TV producer and say Hey, How about a show where we dress someone up in some shitty outfit and then we get them to do stupid tasks to people of the public. Knowing TV these days. You'll get it commissioned.

Until next time.
Stay Frosty.
