I am tired of Rosie....Please just go away quietly. As for Paris Hilton....just throw away the key!

Tell us who you wouldn't care if you never saw in the news again!

Yah, what is it about men? I have seen men who make Jabba the Hut look hot and there they are...getting all picky about fine looking women! Must be that all trolls have no mirrors under their bridge, eh. WTF?!?

OK, from middle England, here's my top ten hate list:

Dick Van Dyke - that accent!

Jerry Springer's audiences.

McDonalds - puke!

American football - what's the point?

G. W. Bush - a total calamity.

Maury - we've tested 24 men and still not found the father!

Penn and Teller - WTF!!

QVC - isn't it just fantastic/superb/wonderful/amazing/freaking expensive?

The Eagles - if I ever hear 'Hotel California' again!!

Walt Disney - there just isn't enough sugar in the entire world.

Amen to the piercing of eardrums when the caroles flood the airwaves! :omg:

I used to bitch and moan constantly about telemarketers and did everything I could to get them to leave me alone. Then came the flood of heavy tree killing envelopes full of solicitations for credit cards. I get a minimum of 5 per week. I send them right back to them postage prepaid, completely empty. I figure the post office may as well benefit from all those dead trees. :paranoid

:clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2: LMFAO but I would like to add:

both of the Beckhams, a truly ghastly couple of creatures

Mister Bean - oh how I hate mister bluddy bean! (but I loved Blackadder)

Princess Diana (and yes, I am prepared to speak ill of the dead)

yobbos, especially football yobbos

pub food

the Spice grrls (who were far, far more offensive than The Eagles)

Kate Moss and the ongoing history of her drug drama life

Marmite

coffee - a beverage which should be avoided whenever vacationing in either Britain or Russia

Amy Winehouse is rapidly drifting into this category.

Oh, for shame, for shame!! I LOVE the Eagles - can't get enough of them. I must admit it's a high school thing. You know when you hear a song and relate it to a really good experience? That's Eagles for me - a hell of a good road trip to Montana, met some awesome people, and came back with an Eagles tape.

I do have say that I have had some excellent sex while listening to Hotel California. Has anyone anywhere had good sex while listening to The Spice Bimbos? Maybe someone oughta make a poll, eh.

Green that cracks me up, when I read Maincats original post bemoaning The Eagles, and Hotel California, I smiled to myself thinking---they must not have done the things to that song that I have! It evokes very fond, vivid memories!!

Can't say the same for, as you put it, the Spice Bimbos--or in agreement with Maincat, for Bush or Springer, or Maury---quite the trio there!!

Ok I admit it, I watch "Dancing with the Stars" even though they use the term "stars" very loosely. But that Scary Spice! It just ain't right. She's been able to dance and had lots of dance instruction as a Spice Girl, and performed dance numbers in concert so how does she compare to people who don't dance for a living? That's right, she doesn't.

She dances really, really well even though I don't care for her partner at all. But I don't think that she deserves to win when she's had such a "leg up" on her competition.

Marie Osmond will probably win which is a joke. I mean it isn't a joke if you're just having a popularity contest, and for who has the cutest personality with the biggest teeth, but at this point if anyone but the race car driver wins, the fix is obviously in. :tired

Marie Osmond should be called Scary Teeth.... They are the size of Chiclets.

Hey, I bet those Chiclets were expensive too!

If Marie wins it will probably be a sympathy win.

The most painful part to watch when Marie was dancing last night were all the lifts. You could almost hear the goan when her partner heaved her over his shoulder. Every lift and drop was a couple of seconds (seemed like minutes) after the beat. It was like they had to think about what was coming, brace themselves, and then wham.. go for it! I actually thought the doll dance was entertaining - but more appropriate for a Carol Burnett skit.

I don't watch the show, I'm not much into dancing. But I've been following the news. I really do believe if Marie wins it will be a sympathy win vs. something she earned.

I must admit that I never watch it either. I never watch any reality shows except for Judge Judy whom I adore. To tell the truth I like da Judge because she is quick to display intellectual and emotional violence towards idiots. I have, however, been stuck watching the arse-end of the Dancing with Boring Stars show when shifting channels in order to watch another carefully crafted non-reality show, you know, the ones with carefully scripted plots, etc.

Up here in Lucky Canucky Land we get lots of American TV on our own channels and then again on your channels which we are also able to receive up here but which are often in different time slots. Sometimes there is a minute or two where the shows north and south of the border seem to be out of sync and this will mean that I will be exposed to something which I would rather not see. Haha. And this is how I have come to see clapped out number Z-list stars dancing their last to horribly sucky music on that dance show.

As for Marie O, isn't she a hundred years old or something? Or close to my advanced age, eh? Well, in my opinion, she oughta win even if it is only in the senior's category.

As for reality teevee, apart from the sainted Judge Judy long may she prosper, I find the genre even worse than Canadian teevee and we all know what that means, do we not?

Oh, BOO!! What about the beloved Anne of Green Gables series! Kidding. Did you ever see Nothing Too Good For a Cowboy? It was on only one year but I did really enjoy that one. I wish they had that series on longer. Oh, and have you ever heard of the Designer Guys on HGTV? I was on the same plane as them once! haha, my brush with Canadian celebrities.

I gotta say that I never miss the Rick Mercer Report and that I kind of did enjoy that gay wedding series, a shallow Canadian reality show which was hosted by Scott Thompson and which aired shortly after same sex marriages were given a legislative blessing by the Canadian parliament. It is also true that I am a serious fan of Corner Gas, a corner where one can find a sweet yet amusing view of life. I also continue to hold out hope for Da Kink in My Hair but I figure that the poor little Mosque on The Prairie oughta be blown up or, um, given some kind of sharper point.......:faint:Politically correct humour inevitably leaves everyone feeling dry and bored.

One of my favourite Canadian shows never did manage to make its way off cable land; I am referring to the splendidly twisted show, Puppets Who Kill. This show was a pretty fun time trip into weirdnessville and yet it managed to maintain some kind of a crazy sense of a moral centre.

And the truth is if you stay up late and happen to be loitering in Canuck teevee cable land you will be able to experience the most offensive and often the most interesting creative efforts of Canuck teevee. These experiences are going to be extremely weird but they are still not going to rival the quality of the work provided by the best of your cable channels. Such shows as The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, Dexter, Big Love,...are absolutely extraordinary! Green is a serious fan.

These are all adult shows, and the intent of such entertainments is that they engage and hold the interest of adults; this is why they discuss adult themes, and why they assume that there is an audience who is sufficiently sophisticated to get it, to find it interesting, and who will not freak out because neither the issues nor the language have been pitched in such a way that it will satisfy the lowest common denominator.

I often feel that it is only in cable land where adults get to pwn teevee.

Long reply from Green, eh.
