Yes. Yes it is.

I thought so.

let's just say, I have psychic powers.

And you know the really sad bit about this. The kids involved in it think they're going to get respect and admired - where the television producers know it's just a freak show for people to jeer at. It's "look at those fcuking dickheads" television.

I'd like to do a follow up fly on the wall - where I follow the girls down, right down to the end of that yellow **** brick road their on. Despair, drugs, destitution, and death. (of course I would be a very moral documentary maker and would not introduce the girls to heroin as the solution to all their little problems - that would be immoral - but it would make great fcuking television. )

And what exactly do you know about the end if you have never been there and back? Well? Create your own destiny or at least allow others to do so.

You sound like you do have a beef with mindless TV but if you didn't care for it you wouldn't be bothered having too much of an opinion on the matter, you seem like you are putting down those of us who enjoy this type of thing. I watched the hills and I am not ashamed to say I did, what am I not cool enough, is my IQ so low that I am not worthy to be loved and respected because every now and then I dip my fingers into trash? I'm too tired to try and keep up with 'Lost' episode 77 (still in the jungle with mysterious bald guy) that's as rubbish and as predictable as the next thing.

In fact your response is as predictable as Fade Street, someone on this forum will have defended or given their commercial taste and integrity based on their righteous opinion the same way Fade Street has cliche characters. You are not of a better pedigree than any other human on this planet based on your taste for television and music. Your perception might very well change one day and believe this or not you may just find yourself enjoying things you used to sneer at.

I watch documentaries on Space, I find it fascinating and on the other end of my spectrum I watch sluts bang it out on porn tube, and that's tacky trash right?

Humans watch everything and some like and dislike it and have your say but you have said some hurtful things in your post. The part about 'bottom of the barrel' is really uncalled for. Why would you say something like that?

Do you not eat trash now and again? Does your genital pipe smell good all day long? Because I can predict that you are going to say I am missing your point and try an justify yourself? Do you know why? Because you are going to feel like you have to defend yourself? And do you know why you are feeling like that because you know you have brought a bull **** cocky approach to the discussion along with all the other morons who think they are 'the ****' for having their commercial tastes so well refined. You can have an opinion but please remain positive otherwise it comes across as immature.

J90 are real players, respect that they got on the show and big up the lads.

I was going to thank this because it was so great. It was like it used one of those free web translators to go from english to spanish and then back to english. Briliant! Gential Pipe! You Porn! Trash! Destiny!

But then I thought that if I thanked it people might think I endorsed it. I can't in all good faith endorse because I haven't a clue what you're saying.

you know there was a follow up made by TV3 on the diary of a debutante thingy?
Needless to say that gimp Mica had gone through some well expressed opinions of her by the public and had clearly been knocked down a peg or two.
Which is what should happen in a society where free speech is like, a right or something.

If you do something and it's put in the public domain (and you don't get much more public domain that national bloody television), well then you have to take the bad with the good. And with this particular series, I can't imagine any compliments coming the way of those vacuous tossers anytime soon.

seannash · 12-11-2010 2:33am

Kind of related but does anyone know what the follow up is with Marcus Fearon?
That show must have seriously harmed him socially and i guess you could say musically

jtsuited · 12-11-2010 2:33am

speaking of great porn sites, if you're feeling man enough for it, I thoroughly recommend er, the project of the stile on their international domain (I am NOT getting a ban for posting a porn link so use your brains if you're curious - i'll take a ban for anything but shilling or porn)

edit: just to clarify by 'thoroughly recommend' I mean if you think you've seen it all, and our looking to challenge your concepts of what constitutes good taste. If you end up traumatised it's not my fault right.

Last thing I heard of him he was workin with Mikey Graham from Boyzone. I know the documentary was some epic lulz but I wouldn't wish that fate upon anyone.

You need a shrink mate get yourself one quick, your a bitter hater, stop trying to make yourself out to be mr happy pants who has it all sussed. If I put you in a shuttle and blasted you deep into space you would be missing your couch and TV. Your far too concerned about what some mythical entity thinks about you, you overly self conscious liar. Stop fooling yourself, the fact that you have a laptop means you crack off all night to 'you porn' trash. Don't be embarrassed man I love ya it's all good in the hood.

Dave,

Dave, you've been drinking or at the glue again.

Dave, no one here cares about something being commercial or not. And "daddy got me on television" isn't particularly commercial.

Dave, you've tied yourself up in this, not us. So, you want to turn your bitterness and self hatred on us. If you like, go ahead - doesn't change anything.

Go ahead Dave. I doesn't change anything and you know it doesn't change anything.

Yeah i think that was in the documentary at the end.It was very weird to be honest(not the Mikey Graham thing)

Seems like he got a nice studio setup out of it though so not all bad.
I know ill probably end up spotting him at some stage in the Spirit Store

I guess that was reality tv to an extent

I've sort of met a good few people like him before. Tony Quinn and his educo codswallop has really fcuked up a lot of lives.

it was in his ma's attic if I remember correctly. The guy and the accountant bankrolling him had lost a bloody fortune.

dav nagle, I do know what you do and do wish you all the success in the world. Ireland is seriously short of pop producers. Keep doing what you're at - hopefully, you'll eventually hit on something.

If you want respect and admiration, there are no short cuts. Make a great pop record.

RTE is like an embarrassing village newspaper - even all our newspapers are like embarrassing village newspapers.

tbf, there are a few radio programmes that are of a decent quality (and fulflill it's roles as a state broadcaster) but as far as television goes, I actually think Nationwide is one of their better offerings. Yes folks, Nationwide is probably the current pinnacle of our state broadcaster's public service.

Cheers again to Dav, stepping out of this I would say....

Free speech etc... we're to busy to get into the show as serious as the 4 girls and im happy to have been given the chance to do it and as a band just having MCD at your gig without having to ask was a blessing.

Good Luck to the show hopw it does well for them, I guess we could all just watch more stuff about recession etc.. and moan about everything rather than just getting off your ass and doing something positive

To be honest the discussion seemed to have come to an end but your last line will no doubt make it rage on for a few more pages.:D

PMI, loose 200 credibility points. Do not pass go, do not collect 200 credibility points. Go straight to jail - credibility jail.

Explain, in what way Fade Street is positive?

I agree with you. But that radio and nationwide happen because they're not sexy enough for the big wigs to get their paws in to ruin them.

The big mistake RTE always makes is trying to compete with foreign and satellite channels - if we want to watch the hills we can switch to MTV. We're a small country - RTE should focus on local stuff and cultivating local producers. For a country the size of Ireland they have a massive budget - but that money never ends up on the screen.

RTE itself is like a little village. Like Bus Eireann - everyone is related to each other. It's like a family farm.

I can absolutely see no way in which Fade Street is doing something positive.

Seziertisch · 12-11-2010 9:15am

Just up, after reading the thread, well done lads, some great performances.

KRD, in particular, you really delivered the goods. Bit of a late entry into the game, but you really represented, like a young Ray Houghton.

JT, solid performance as always, throughout the entire 90 minutes, like Paul McGrath at the back.

I take issue with Fade Street because I regularly have great ideas for TV shows which go unappreciated by the world at large. I mean, I came up with series which followed the exact same format as Fade Street a couple of years ago, except instead of one of the girls, I would have cast a middle-aged rapist. Any bad stuff he did, we could have just said that it was scripted and didn't "really" happen.

Sorry Einstein, Jtsuited is right. And I am afraid he's got something that your well connected daddy can not buy you; street credibility and coolness.

Oh dear...well my 3 lettered named friend, any of the "coolness" or "Street Cred" I have was well earned by generating my own chart Success and making a living from pretty much playing music.

And in response to how Fade Street was doing anything "positive"...the reason this thread existed was because the lads from j90 had an opportunity to get their name on TV. If one person goes to their site/fb page...it's been positive for them. If one boards member reads this thread and sees their name...it's positive for them...

Obviously if the production company approached jtsuited to use some of his dj music, he would have said "No way, this is embarrassing, I don't want any of my music exposed in that way..."

For the record, I never once said that I thought the TV show was good, but I'm open minded enough to see that if someone offers you an opportunity you take it.

You know putting the words coolness and Street Cred in inverted commas is really uncool and could create a feedback loop of uncoolness that could destroy the universe!

Chart success? "Pretty Much" playing music? Please, elaborate...

I don't think you are quite getting the fact that even to be associated with that show is an embarrassment. What is more, why on earth would you want to attract the attention of people who watch that show is beyond me: they are either a) people in shock and disgust, vowing to never see it again b) mindless idiots, much like the characters on it.

Even more baffling is how on earth you think that THIS thread is a positive thing for them...

"DJ Music" - just priceless.

I hate to repeat myself but here goes: even to be associated with that abomination of a show is an embarrassment. The only opportunity I can see them having is getting some quick cash while it lasts and be forever associated with what I'm pretty sure is RTE's worst show to date.

Lads....Thurs Night!
