Talent shows, I like how they are (usually) family friendly and light-hearted. I can watch them without using too many braincells. Like a Flavor of Love marathon.Quote:

They are valid for crushing the human spirit and hopefully upping the suicide rate among angsty, talentless teenagers and young adults.
Sure, if you like gathering a bunch of talentless people and letting the world vote on the most talented out of them. :monster:
OOC: You don't use brain cells watching Flavor of Love or any of its just-as-god-awful spinoffs. You lose brain cells watching them.
I HATE THEM WITH A BURNING PASSION
Haters to the mothersmurfing left.
I love talent shows. I love seeing people do extraordinary things.
May 22, So You Think You Can Dance is back, bitches! I'm so excited. :excited:

Not a fan of them.
I can see the appeal, but they aren't simply aren't my kind of show. I must admit, that I've become somewhat further disillusioned by them since I watched Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe and have been made more aware of some of the techniques that such shows utilise.
And I certainly cannot stomach any of the 'Got Talent' shows because Piers Morgan is pretty much up there on my list of "slimy, horrid TV personalities." I hate how someone who has been such an unrepentant git in the past is now really popular as a judge on these kinds of shows.
Hah I love these freakin shows
They can keep me entertained for hours
Sure some things are rigged, you forget about some of the winners and america can make some dumb choices.
But its the "moment'' that matters. Where someone becomes a star or when somone/or group recieves a standing ovation, seeing somone achieve that is somewhat inspiring at times.
So you think you can dance is straight up the beez kneez though O_o bias aside that show rules.
Label me excited for the new season.
It depends if any of the contestants are talented, and if so how many.
But if it's just a bunch of really awful people, nothx.
The only reason I turn on any of the big television stations is to watch the daily/local news.
I only like watching them to watch talentless people fail
I watch So You Think You Can Dance. It's cute enough and all. And if you make it onto the actual show, you have some real talent in you. I skip over the audition :bou::bou::bou::bou:, though. The majority of it is basically making fun of people. I know a lot of viewers love the car crashes, but I can't watch them without feeling bad for the contestants. :aimblush: Plus it's just boring.
As for everything else, watch it if you want. They don't bother me.
