Is it just me

MaxJoker · February 24th, 2009, 09:40 AM

Thought that`d be a good intro into well anything anyone wants to say really ,as hopefully a way to reduce those killer stress levels .But if it isn`t don`t blame me blame my still half cut brain (I've mistakenly thought it Monday twice today)

, Now then

"Is it just me " or is the new Minder utter and total crap

Bad enough 5 has made such rubbish anyway,what with No-Shame Richie and the like.But to use the same Name of a total televisual classic is unforgivable and on such a weak premise , hell they even bastardized the original theme tune ?.

For those that don`t know what i`m going on about here`s a clue

Proper Minder

Is it just me, or is TV in general absolutly crap, there is not one show on TV that I would make an effort to watch (ok maybe Oz Clarke & James May) I spend more time flicking through 200+ channels of shite trying to find somthing to watch than I do watching stuff.

And antiques+house makeovers+soaps but the absolute worst is REALITY SHOWS !!!

Shit shit and more shit.

I was watching the Channel 4 news today and one of the news items was about the property-crash in Spain and how it's causing financial hardship especially to British pensioners that had retired there.
The cost of living with the Euro nearly doubling in value against Sterling and apparently you cannot give property away on the Costa Del Sol and it's market-value is still falling,but...after the news finished, just before I usually turn the televison off, there followed some house-porn programme about investing in property in Spain!
I don't know when it was filmed, but I think that these house-porn programmes are like heroin (Smack) to the producers, in the fact that they can't stop themselves producing this type of crap.
You would have thought that the controllers at Channel 4 would by now have seen the way the s**t is hitting the fan and pulled these obscene and moronic programmes.

That is a wonderful irony, I would have laughed like a drain at that exept that I have a villa in mijas and the arse has dropped out of the market.
Its true what you say though, its lazy, thoughtless programming.

"Is it just me "

Or do newsreaders and their phony solemnity one second then grinning giggling joy the next really piss you off ?. For me it`s the BBC ones that are worst , but that could maybe be because they seem to have 30 of those apologists for open injustice !.

Also the fact they work for a gangster firm which uses the threat of imprisonment to strong arm cash from people who are the heaviest taxed on the planet !.
Still how else would they get the money together to pay "Talent" like Jonathon Ross £18 million pounds to toss himself off on screen , or Graham Norton to regularly say "ooooooooooooooh, bumholes "

Hey maybe i should just type

"Is it just me "

Or are the BBC now merely a mouthpiece for propaganda and a platform for creators of brain rotting bile ?

I don't advocate being burgled to get rid of yer television, but by God, after 15 years without it, it really is wonderful.
