I've reported this to Asa now. It's really annoying and other members agree with me.

It's not 'his fault' or 'his fault' either. You're all to blame for constantly bringing up this laughable discussion. Forget about it, as you are all providing an irritation to the rest of the forum. ALL OF YOU.


has it ever occured to you that the holier than thou preaching you constantly do on this board may be classed as an irritant aswell?

This is not about me. If people find me irritating, they should tell me, and if I don't try and improve my posting style I should get a warning from the moderators.

I find the whole Xroads thing annoying. Other members have also expressed this feeling, so surely common sense would tell you to help stop it from resurfacing again?

And if I hadn't mentioned it, the Crossroads debate would have disappeared for all eternity? Not ruddy likely.

You can argue back for all your hearts content, but I won't be replying as this thread is not for this type of discussion, and it's not fair on others who want to continue with the original topic.

Well James Martin's hatred of Crossroads was worse than mine, thats why im trying to say - he was the one who put a pic of the producer in his sig with SCUM written there.

Infact I actually liked Crossroads at one point - just dont think they need to bring it back, thats all im saying!


aww bless. You are partly forgiven but it is National Scott Day today so you are not allowed to say anything that could be considered anti-Crossroads.

Back onto evil TV shows


Clearly the original sin (insulting XR on National Scott Day) has just been forgiven and I have started talking about the topic itself.

Now the only thing that could have happened would be for Jez to reply with a non-evil responce. He is not JM after all.

Now I'm going to shut up now. It's an interesting topic this one. Nearly as interesting as XR Wink

It's the crap that you keep spouting out about Scott Hardcastle or whatever his name is that makes you irritating. Rolling Eyes

Can I deviate just a 'little bit' and request that Jim Rosenthal not return to presenting ITV's F1 coverage? there must surely be someone more charismatic tham him..... Matt Lorenzo was/is much better......

I may have dreamt it, but I heard Knightmare was returning. This is one that should be left to memory. They ruined it in the later series by scrapping the computer generated graphics and using that "eye shield" to watch funky coloured video of a castle ruin. There was none of that step left, step right stuff, as the eye shield took over movement. The castle ruins just wern't the same as those computer generated rooms with gaps in the floor and huge scorpians.

I believe this is still on, may be some details at http://www.knightmare.com for updates and things on it.

Neither you or Freddy will be network controller anytime soon.

The point since you ask is ratings . Its neither here nor there if the winners of these shows have any success afterwards. You may not like that type of show, but the contollers do because they get big audiences.[/quote]

You are unfortunately correct. There are two facts that I have found to be universal. 1. The masses are asses 2. The most popular of everything is usually awful. I stopped watching TV altogether by February this year, I just couldn’t find anything to watch from one week to the next and when my television finally broke I simply didn’t get it fixed. Then in August I moved permanently to Canada and things are even worse over here. If you think pop idol, big brother and IACGMOH are bad you should see Paradise Hotel and The Bachelor!

Thank god for internet radio.

LoveTV!!
These are the shows that I think shouldn't return:

- Fort Boyard (RUBBISH)
- The Mole (BORING!!)
- Popstars (NOT POP IDOL!!)
- The Vault (NOT WITH MEL!)

Anyone else agree????
