    I just flicked on to sky one to see something truly shocking.

    Huey Morgan of Fun Lovin Criminals fame presenting a daytime tv show about pets ? Petnation. Now maybe the guy loves animals, fair enough. So make a show about him looking at rock start tigers and crocodiles and ****. But this is more like middle aged women complaining about their terrier barking at the neighbours. Seriously WHAT is the world coming too ? From rock and roll to.....to...... Loose Women with Pets ????

    I am truly perplexed :confused:

    The guy is a total loser and only "famous" in Ireland. Wish he'd f*ck off back to NY or wherever he's from.

    Loose Women with Pets ????

    There's your answer.

    I personally don't think daytime TV on Sky is representative of the state of the entire world.

    Well as long as theirs loads of stupid people watching daytime tv their will always be a market for stupid tv programmes! some sad people really do have nothing better to do with their time

    Exactly. Big fish in a small pond comes to mind. Shite band that got lapped up here for some reason. The music tries to hard to be 'cool', maybe that's why.

    He's probably so stoned, he thinks he's on Kerrang, and the dogs are a figment of his crack-head imagination.

    I don't even know who Fun Lovin Criminals are.:confused:

    He was a presenter on "Something for the Weekend" on BBC2 a few weeks ago. Maybe he is hoping for a career change from music to tv.

    If he is so famous in Ireland he should relate his music to Irish society. I'd love to hear his musical masterpiece adapted to:" Skobey Shnacks" :pac:

    I preferred the Fun Loving Cardinals tbh.
