Jeremy Kyle show for the unemployed

Posted : 1 year ago on 4 November 2008 01:22 (A review of The Jeremy Kyle Show)

The Jeremy Kyle Show is a weekday daytime program which starts just after GMTV at 9:25am on ITV. The show is a talk show and was placed on ITV after Trisha living ITV so then this show came to fill in the slot.

The Jeremy Kyle show I got to say when I first seen this I thought it was pretty good but then it just gets boring. The show is full of people on the dole, people who just can't be bothered to get a job, chavs, and people who have one night stands and go off with anyone, drugs users, alcoholics, etc. A thing about this show is embarrassment why would you want to share your personal life over the TV and then there on the TV saying there on drugs like there happy about it. Sometimes the show makes me think they have actors I have no idea why I just think they do sometimes. Jeremy Kyle is alright I guess I don't personally think he could help the situations at all as the guests on the show never seem to listen.

A typical thing on this show that appears a lot is who's the father of the baby which once you have seen it really it gets boring. Thankfully this show is only shown in the morning so if you have school, college, work you will miss it so not much to worry about then. But when I have seen this show I got to laugh at some of the idiots on the show because really they make me laugh just how pathetic they are I'm not been nasty anyway.

Zombies taking over Big Brother and the UK

Posted : 1 year ago on 31 October 2008 06:32 (A review of Dead Set)

Dead set was shown on E4 during October 27 until October 31 2008 and is also set to be released on DVD November 3rd. Dead Set is based around Big Brother and in the house you have the type of people you would see in the house common people, weird people, normal people. The show has a twist as zombies take over and the rest of the Big Brother Housemates also Big Brother production runner Kelly, Kelly's boyfriend Riq, Patrick the producer, and Alex all try and escape and survive.

The cast are good in the show there is a few people who just didn't act so well the women Pippa was annoying but that's a typical Big Brother housemate. The show is entertaining it's crazy and very bloody. Adam Deacon who plays Space and Kelly who plays Jamie Winstone it was great seeing those 2 together as they were both in Kidulthood. Even the Big Brother stars are in this including Brian who you get to see as a zombie and for his part he does a good job. I did feel bad for Davina Mccall turning into a zombie but I had to admit she was funny.

The series is entertaining and in my opinion it's a British classic and it really has a good idea basing it from Big Brother and putting this sort of situation with it as it did make it interesting. I will be buying this on DVD and if you haven't seen this yet I recommend it.

TNA is getting better

Posted : 1 year, 1 month ago on 20 September 2008 06:17 (A review of TNA Impact! Wrestling)

Well I am starting at like TNA and to be honest I still think WWE is the best but I am getting sick of the toilet humor on WWE it is getting me annoyed (I am talking about Jesse and Festus and another boring tag team by the name of priceless WWE does need Edge back). I am starting to like TNA after playing the game well TNA does have fast pace wrestling and great talent on the show. My favorites on TNA AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, Christian Cage, Booker T and Awesome Kong as well as more. The TNA knockouts is something that is great because TNA's women are not all eye candy it is based on wrestling skill which TNA have some women with great skill ones like Awesome Kong, Roxxi, ODB. The show reminds me very much of WCW which I was a big fan of that show while that was airing.

This is not a song contest it's political

Posted : 1 year, 2 months ago on 6 September 2008 06:50 (A review of The Eurovision Song Contest)

The Eurovision Song Contest honestly this show is a waste of time not only does it have terrible music but it is also fixed. Something though I admit I did like Ukraine with Verka Serduchka - Danzing from 2007 that did make me laugh. The UK will never win due to political voting due to Europe hating us which I do hate the rest of Europe due to having a problem with my own country if they stop hating us then I would respect them. The truth is the UK song's have never been good you hear artist which have flopped before in the UK charts the thing is we never get anyone who is popular. Malta and Ireland are really the only 2 countries who vote for the UK. The thing is what is the point in the UK entering Eurovision it does not matter who it is or how good or how famous we still will lose the show. The countries of Europe tend to pick countries who they are neighbours with and not on the song. It has also been proven that Eurovision do block votes from other countries. Terry Wogan even admitted the truth in 2008 and said he may leave due to it been no longer a singing contest but political.

The show is the same thing all the time

Posted : 1 year, 2 months ago on 5 September 2008 08:57 (A review of Eggheads)

Eggheads is one of the worst gameshows I have seen it features 5 quiz champions who have won many quiz shows like Mastermind, Who Want's to be a Millionaire, The Weakest Link etc. The 5 of them join up to take on a bunch of normal people and they have to beat the Eggheads and if they do lose the prize money goes up.

I do hate this show due to the fact it is the same thing The Eggheads winning all the time just really makes the show boring I mean come on bring back 24 hour Quiz, Blockbusters, 100% or Catchphrase those were entertaining. Dermot Murnaghan presents the show and he is just dull BBC never seem to aire anything good lately that's why I find ITV and Channel 4 better.

Dancing on Ice review

Posted : 1 year, 2 months ago on 20 August 2008 02:32 (A review of Dancing on Ice)

Dancing on Ice is a show where Jane Torvill and Christopher Dean teach a bunch of so called Celebrity's to dance on Ice the problem is that they get called Celebrity's when most have never appeared on our TV's for ages. The show has the so called Celebrity's dancing along with Judges to rate there score after the viewers vote on who they want to stay. One of the Judges does act like Simon Cowell the judges name on this show is Jason. Once the votes are collected there are 2 left which the Judges say which one goes. My point with this show sometimes it is a scam and ITV and other channels have done it and there are to many types of programs like this really it just gets boring. BBC has Strictly come Dancing which is just another piece of trash on TV much like this so ITV have to that of a show they could compete with it. People may find it good to watch that they are dancing on Ice but once you have seen it once it's pretty much the same thing all the time and after that it gets boring.

SmackDown review so far

Posted : 1 year, 2 months ago on 10 August 2008 07:18 (A review of WWE Friday Night SmackDown)

SmackDown is the best show WWE produces at this moment it has the best talent on the show now since the draft it's been awesome with superstars like Edge, Jeff Hardy, Triple H, Ken Kennedy, Shelton Benjamin they all make it such a great show. The only down point to SmackDown is the Great Khali he needs to be off WWE he is a boring wrestler and he is to slow. Edge is really providing loads of entertainment for SmackDown playing the bad guy (heel) which he plays it so well which you do expect to see what will happen the next week. Jeff Hardy and the MVP storyline has been a bit cruel but it's been good to watch and the whole storyline was good the only bad thing was bringing up Jeff Hardy's house on fire and losing his dog that was uncalled for. Shelton Benjamin finally glad to see him off ECW as this guy has loads of talent he can do high flying moves and offer tons of excitement during a match. Ken Kennedy that guy is just entertaining all the time. I got to say Vickie Guerrero as GM for SmackDown is pretty dam good.

Edge has just really made the show worth watching and has really improved SmackDown.

How is this entertaining

Posted : 1 year, 3 months ago on 28 July 2008 12:32 (A review of Playboy: Inside the Playboy Mansion)

I watched this program and it is nothing but completely boring Hugh M. Hefner in my mind is a sick old man with young women to me it's just wrong he should be dating women at his own age. The guy is old enough to be the girls fathers. But the women really just want him for his cash the show is about the girls and there lifes and what Hugh does for them. These girls we know there body is fake really I don't find this entertaining.

Who has the biggest balls of steel

Posted : 1 year, 6 months ago on 26 April 2008 03:00 (A review of Balls of Steel)

This has to be one of the best shows I've ever seen makes me proud to be from england. This show is all about 12 comedians which do stupid stuff to win the balls of steel award 6 take part each week. Mark Dolan presents this show giving us jokes along the way.

The acts are Alex Zane and his unfair gameshows, The Pain Men taking different stunt such as hitting a nail in there hand or a sander on there bum pretty painfully, worlds worst who was in series 1 he did such things as be a london cabbie and a barman, Annoying Devil set out to make peoples life a living hell, Big Gay Following who will go up to men and say you fancy a bum, Neg and his urban sports running from security guards and then he does the rodeo jumping on peoples back then there was knock the door don't run getting people mad, Toju the Militant Black Guy who will see words such as black pudding, raccoon etc as racial slurs, The Bunny Boiler who likes to hit on other womens men to get there reaction, Prank TV this is pranking people in different ways.

Coming to series 2 was Johnathan Goodwin attempts dangerous escapes with his father, the f**kers who will do sex anywhere in a bar in front of people in a car show room, Mr Inappropriate who teaches students swearing etc and doing rude stuff in public places.

Series 3 had The Nob Jockey a jockey who does not ride on horses but on people, The B***ard in Black a football ref who gets everything wrong, Scummy Mummy a mother who has a child or baby such as seeing a rection of a guy at a tattoo place of a baby getting a tattoo of cause he doesnt let this happen on top of that Scummy Mummy has a foul mouth.

This is one of the most criticized programs on tv one of them been tom cruise getting squirted in the face with water in the fake microphone the producer done this stunt on him and he spent the night in jail. They done the same stunt on Sharon Osborne but she got her own back as she picked up a bucket of water and shot it right at the camera.

Now Channel 4 have brought out the Balls Of Steel DVD showing all of Series 1 you can see all of those classic moments over and over again its worth buying. If you have never seen this check it out you can see this on youtube or if you have channel 4 you can watch it there. The dvd is also out now so check it out

This is comedy yeah right

Posted : 1 year, 6 months ago on 26 April 2008 12:59 (A review of Benidorm)

Benidorm is about people on a hoilday resort in Benidorm.

I find this show unfunny with a boring set of characters put into the show. For instants you have an old woman going around on a scooter she looks more like shes trying to be a teenager. Her husband in the show wears earrings an old man does quite sad he really skinny. As for the show does it have a plot i don't know i never took much notice but seeing a bad cast. Avoid this because i don't know how people even find it funny it sucks. Cheap Jokes and as i said the cast is terrible.

On the last note the old woman looks like shes been tangoed.
