Why Today Doesn't Suck.
- 11 April 2002
Since Evo-Web has many members from all sorts of countries, I thought there would be no place better to learn about what the hell everyone is watching around the world. Just give the show name a short description if you don't mind.
Here in the USA, its the offseason for television. The normally most popular shows (CSI, House, American Idol, Without a Trace) are all showing repeats... leaving the door open for America to find new shows to watch. The top two shows of the summer have been:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. America's Got Talent - This show is essentially, a freak/talent show. It is pretty much a copy of American Idol, except besides just singers, there are jugglers, sword swallowers, contortionists, magicians, people who play music from bodily instruments, etc. It appeals to the lowest common denominator, but since there is very little else on... people seem to watch.
HOWEVER, there is a pretty great reason to watch despite the general crapiness, and that is David Hasselholf. Never have I seen a man more in love with himself, and he has allowed this dillusion to pierce him to his core. I swear he wakes up every morning, grabs his penis, rips it off with both hands, and sticks it up his ass to fuck himself. He truly is a television miracle.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2. So You Think You Can Dance? - This is another "talent" show, but with the exact format as American Idol (or any other, you think you are a pop star program) except instead of individual artists, its dancers, or groups of dancers. My wife watched this for about a half an hour before I realized what was going on so I have now sadly contributed to the viewing audience.
So, what the hell are people watching in your country?
