someone please explain to me wtf the tv execs are even thinking anymore. ive been seeing these promos lately for a new "reality" game show simply entitled Hurl. the premise is.. contestants are forced to injest things that are going to make them vomit.. the last one to puke, wins 1000 bucks. and its all televised for our viewing "pleasure". seriously WTF?!?!

wow. that is gross. i think they are starting to run out of ideas. but its all about making the money. as stupid and gross as that idea sounds i bet their guy viewers go through the roof lol. and some people will watch it just because they are curious.

well i can guarentee you i wont be tuning in.. fact i change the channel when the commercial promos come on. there is something seriously defective within the human condition that anyone in charge of whats aired actually finds this to be valid entertainment for the masses.

Reality shows are the thing of the future and they get worse and worse as time goes on so as they are running out of ideas.

American Idol has broken off into a million different shows "America's Next Big Band", Who wants to be a Pop Star", etc... Survivor became all sorts of programming, all the "Reality" date shows, etc...etc... etc... Hell even this "Hurl" is a product of FEAR FACTOR. All of this "Reality" show stuff to mee is garbage.

People seriously need to get off of their a$$es and start living life lest this garbage gets much worse.

Have a great day!!!

All I can say is: thank God for books. I'm wondering when they're going to decide to actually deveolp a game like "The Running Man" for TV. Have you ever seen that movie or read the short story? I'm thinking we're just one baby step away from something just like that and, you're right, it's totally ridiculous. Some reality TV is all right but most of it is drek and the problem is that people are so bored with thier lives that they're more than happy to watch what Gene Simmons does with his (Gene Simmons Family Jewels) or what the local exterminator does with his (Verminators) or what traffic cops do with theirs (Speeders).

WTF indeed, seems like anything goes these days ah? And this is what we pay a tv license for. Hey do you have to pay to watch tv? I really would not be watching anything like that, but I guess some "sick" people in the world would be. 1000 bucks, that is not much really, I would want more than that to even consider it.


myLot reputation of 47/100. tessah (2615)   ranked 269 out of 346 in developing the human creature  1 year ago

pay for it? not bloody likely.. they couldnt even pay me to watch this sh|t


myLot reputation of 94/100. gemini_rose (10143)   ranked 147 out of 346 in developing the human creature  1 year ago

Wow, we have to pay about £150 per year to watch the tv, if we dont we can face prison or a massive fine.


myLot reputation of 47/100. tessah (2615)   ranked 269 out of 346 in developing the human creature  1 year ago

i pay for cable connections.. i dont pay for the premium channels. atm i dont HAVE to have cable to watch tv, the picture is just clearer with it.. but come january.. broadcasting will only be done in digital and everyone will have to pay for a converter in order to watch the "free" broadcasts.

Hi Tessah, I was eating dinner and watching TV and the commercial came on for that show and I got so disgusted I had to change the channel. There is no way I am going to watch this. I do not find this entertainment. You know there probably are some people out there that will find this very amusing and watch it.


myLot reputation of 47/100. tessah (2615)   ranked 269 out of 346 in developing the human creature  1 year ago

there has to be a market for it for them to be putting this crap on the air.. sad ain it?

I'm sure everyone is gonna be tuning in for that one.

I think next season will be the new show "Excrement", in which contestants ingest different foods and make bets on what color their stool will be. doh


myLot reputation of 76/100. myklj999 (7262)   ranked 101 out of 346 in developing the human creature  1 year ago

Do you think there'll be a market for putting this "crap" on the air?lol


myLot reputation of 47/100. tessah (2615)   ranked 269 out of 346 in developing the human creature  1 year ago

who knows.. mabe alongside Excrement.. they will have Bleeder in the line-up.. and the chick who hemmorages the most in a month gets a supply of stayfree. sad sad little world we live in

I think that the execs have had one to many hits in the head with a blunt object. I have no idea how a show about someone puking is going to go over no matter how much money is involved you couldn't make me do that grrr. I think that they are scrambling for show ideas maybe they should purchase and translate more anime instead. I know I would definitely rather watch anime over the people puking. Reality t.v. has gone a little too far for my tastes. LOL!!!
