The Salon

How bad is the v/o on the new series of The Salon! Is it Brian Dowling? It sounds like he's doing the announcements on Ryanair!

I was rather surprised they used Brian Dowling as voiceover of this series, it does sound quite unusual! The new Salon is very nice though, even though one room looks like a dentist surgery! I still don't know why they didn't just redecorate the old salon!

I can't see the point in discussing this programme at all. It sucks, like all other "reality" TV. Most hairdressers live in their own Coke-fuelled world, and I don't know why anybody outside of that world would want to look at it on TV.

Never fails to amaze me - you open the thread discussing the programme and even reply to it - to say there is no point replying to it.

In your opinion, "reality" TV might suck, but to others it's a TV highlight.

IMO The Salon worked best last year as just a show where people could ring in and make an appointment. When they had the phone vote for sacking midway through it didn't really work.

Apart from being able to be on the show, I think the only other viewer involvement should be for a weekly makeover of one staff member (most of them need it). Each week Paul should select someone to have a makeover and offer three styles to the viewers for them to choose from.

I know that some prefer Pepsi

Here, here!

"The Salon" is nothing more than a completely pointless waste of television airtime. What's the point of a program
that consists of people cutting hair, or people getting their hair cut. Isn't this the show where in it's first series, a
certain former TV personality, by the name of Michael Barrymore, just so happened to wander in one day, in a
feeble attempt to relaunch his TV career, and get a bit of cheap publicity? Or did the "producers" of this utterly
banal and totally useless program, phone up Barrymore's manager, asking if the aforementioned former TV
personality could pop by in a feeble attempt to boost the show's ratings, and get a bit of cheap publicity?
