Are you sick of programs with well written dialogue? are you sick of programs that have a story line or point? I know i am! thats why i welcome the new show: "Last Choir Standing" on the BBC. I bet you cant guess what the show's premise is. didnt think so. Basically its about Choir groups battling to be...the last choir standing! as you can probably imagine there are...3 judges, not one annoying host but TWO annoying hosts that do nothing for the show but fill time. The show also relies on cohriagraphed swaying and stand still dance moves which to be fair can be pretty damn hilarious. And most of all like all shows in its genre, it relies pretty much on audience votes which leads me to my main point...
..I dont want to fucking vote! i want my television to be as physically undemanding as possible. I love it when my television makes my brain work but my actual body? your having a laugh surely? I refuse to controll the outcome of a program. i want something completely original which is why i hate reality television so much.
It seems all the programs the BBC shows now are standard cop dramas and mind numbing jizm like this. The 3 judges are your absolute typical. Theres "mr nasty" who although sometimes is playing it up for the camera usually delivers an honest and correct opinion which usually enrages the pea brained plebian audience to the point of an old fashioned pitchfork and lynching. to counteract this theres a sassy woman who loves everyone and everything she sees "well i thought you were amazing tonight!" (crowd goes wild) and then theres...the other one that no one cares about.
The hosts Nick and Myleen (Klass) are just what you would expect. Opinionless. Absolutely opinionless on any of the Choirs and have forced pre written conversations with each other and theres always a montage ... Always.
The choirs themselves are obviously a mix of very talented and abysmal. (its got to be fun!)
I am so sick of this formula and wish that one day we could have well written programming again...
For now though we have to settle for "My Family"
And for that i apologise
