hey, assmonkeys who have no life and end up reading this blog. WELCOME BACK, i have decided to pour my thoughts onto this blog once more.... Ever viewed the current television programs and wondered what the heck mediacorp of singapore was up to? Our latest show set to capture singapore audiences, the long awaited..and rather unoriginal.."Singapore idol" (why it isn't titled singaporean idol when american idol is titled like so remains a wonder to me, unless the producers thought that they would fulfill the uniqueness quota with that sweeping title change move) the premise of the show remains the same with it's american version. This brings up the bile in my system. We've already had "who wants to be a millionaire?" as well as "wheel of fortune" but both shows it seemed, couldn't sustain it's run and thus production ended.
A couple of weeks back on american idol, Latoya london whom i thought was best by far got voted off. This brings up an interesting point, there were people who weren't voting which means that a minute percentage have realised that american idol has lost it's unique hold it had for 2 seasons on them. This minute percentage will increase as more and more people start to realise the formula of success that american idol uses. And when the numbers of viewers drop, the show is cancelled. And another show is invented to rein in all the sheep once again. Television is probably by far the most important weapon the jews have wielded on us. It controls us and makes us give it undivided attention to it. And it feeds us the propaganda that the powers that be want us imbibe whether consciously or on a subconscious level. That however is another issue for another day, The point is this, Why does mediacorp have to follow what the rest of the world are doing? Why can't we differentiate and give them a show that's unique and then maybe have the rest of the world follow our standard...it could just be.. maybe a competition for the best comedian in singapore cause just by looking at the sitcoms mediacorp has produced.. i'd say we're in serious need of some comedic talents here...and what better method to find one than to have a competition and use the same method american idol uses.... not only will the unique factor drag in a lot of viewers, for once we will see real singapore comedians at their best...that's just a suggestion but you get the idea....it's already sad enough seeing chinese commercials on english channels, do we really have to stoop so low as to just copy what america is doing and create local versions of it? what next? fear factor singaporean style?? or..the bachelor singaporean style??..im only going to watch starworld on cable or wrestling on supersports....man i feel sorry for people without cable in singapore cause even though the cable service is not as good as in certain other countries (no porn here) there are still plenty of alternatives to the audiovisual diarrhea that mediacorp shows, this is excluding the arts channels, the're ok by me but if you want to watch shows like friends...or the oc..eye for a geek....then please reconsider the quality of your life,
well my fingers have numbed. i'd like to go on but wrestling is on right now. so till the next update....in the words of wise people..."stay cool and funky".....man i need some new lines!!!
