    CSI

    It's the worst braindead drivel thats ever been broadcast on the television. The CGI, the sugar coated graphics, the smugness of the characters are among some of the main reasons the show brings a little bit of sick in my mouth anytime I see it. I cant be in the room when people are watching it AND I'm not very good friends with people who are fans.


    So what is the show that gets your skin crawling ?

    Any of those reality talent shows once they've finished showing all the rubbish people who think they are great.

    I've never seen more than a minute here or there of CSI. It really looks like the most awful trash so I'm amazed so many people watch it? I think perhaps a lot of people just want a bit of mindless garbage to watch after a days work and that that presumably fits the bill.

    good God where to start

    CSI

    NCIS.

    A moronic knock off of the CSI format crossed with a very basic police procedural programme. Terrible format, terrible writing, terrible acting, and colour-by-numbers characters (The "Deep" one, the "Troubled" one, the "quirky" medical examiner, the "Funny" one - He's particularly annoying).

    The only person who attempts any kind of character development is lead actor Mark Harmon (and even that seems to be simply a composite of the behaviour of the leads from the three real CSI programmes) and as a result, when he's onscreen he generally looks like he's accidently wallked onto the set of the wrong programme. Theres a disturbing reliance on "Ay-rab terrorists" to provide the stock bad guys as well.

    Prime time bumgravy from the people who broght you "JAG".

    The over-emoting, overly sentimental with long meaningful looks of most US drama seris -ER, NYPD Blue, CSI...etc does my head in. Get real ffs.

    any and all reality tv shows - only thing i ever watched like that was last comic standing - im not sure if that counts different people go on stage and do stand up - watched 1 season of it, its too american and people who where actually funny didnt get far. You know your a red neck if ... *shudder* i cant stand that sort of ****e comedy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,835 ✭✭✭CamperMan


    soaps...

    I cannot stand Coronation street, Emmerdale, Eastenders...

    OH and all that reality TV sh!t like Big Brother...

    THEN... Strictly come dancing.....

    Game shows...... more rubbish

    Day time TV sucks...

    in fact... the TV these days is so bad, I never turn it on unless there is a really good movie on...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,060 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    +1 for Noel Edmunds, Deal or no Deal was bad but that Noels HQ where he just spews a load of populist sh1t for the first half with an audience full of retards clapping everything he says and then cring-inducing sentimental crap for the rest, he's a real-life Alan Partridge,Charlie Brooker was taking the piss out of him on Screenwipe the other night for it, the man is a joke.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 68 ✭✭Austin 3:16


    Surely Lucy Kennady deserves an honorable mention.

    I wouldnt have a problem with Deal or No Deal if they didnt go on like there was skill involved. They are only a gabble of Brady Bunch wasters who dont wanna work. The game could be over in 20 seconds flat...


    Although, I'd watch if this was the presenter (on teh right):

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    Lost and Grey's Anatomy, due to my severe hatred of the main characters of both shows (Jack and Meredith) Ellen Pompeo has to be one of the worst leading actresses in TV history.

    Sports News on RTE at 9 PM.
    Honestly - if we were nuclear attacked by North Vietnam there would be a three-minute report on this in the news.
    Then the presenter would say - and now here's Joe with the latest Sports news.

    "Good evening - Offaly hurlers are demanding a new manager and are holding a meeting tomorrow morning ..."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    I don't watch things that make me angry.

    They would never start with Irish Sport, I am sure something is happening in English Soccer far more worthwhile :D

    I didn't realise the North Vietnamess were ready to launch an attack, best get my Iodine tablet. :D
