Okay ladies and gents, brace yourselves as I'm going over the top...

 

It's saturday morning, you have a choice of two programs, both of which involve young presenters shouting and running around, finishing each other's sentences and wacky hijinks. The moral guardians are out in force, children aren't learning anything other than bad behaviour, the moral fabric of society is being destroyed etc

 

The time is the early 1980's, the shows are TISWAS and Swap Shop - you are all getting old!

Worst thing for me is the camera work, flitting between shots and giving you 0.5 seconds of a picture then some out of focus rubbish , zooming in and out at hyper speed , and all this on adult oriented programms such as culinary programs that kids that can keep up with this speed vision are not beeping watching

 

I am right foo can miffed with it

My pet hate is 'the double act' why oh why can't one presenter read all the lines? Why chop and change between two people at the end of every sentence. Oh and don't get me started on the use of the word "absolutely" at the end of every other sentence (Rant over)

Cheers

Both of these are real pet hates of mine, I'm convinced Nigel Slater takes his cameraman to the pub and gets him hammered before they start filming. 90% of the shots are out of focus!

I heard that its natures way of telling you that you like watching total cack.

 

What he said. I never watch live TV except the odd thing on the BBC if it's convenient. Nowadays there is absolutely no excuse to sit through anything that you don't want to. With streaming stuff available on the Internet, coupled with things like sky plus HD or virgin on demand...or just the off switch of course. ;)

 

I was round somebody's house the other day and they have the television on (yes I know, horribly vulgar) and it occurred to me that it was the first time I had seen an advertisement on television for a couple of years. It also occurred to me precisely why that was, because it's a load of cack.

 

As to presenters, I have my feelings about Chris Evans and his ilk, which I should probably keep to myself.

 

On a different note, if you want a refreshingly different approach to presenters, I highly recommend BBC six music. With just a few exceptions, all the DJs are extremely intelligent, modest, and talk about the music that they are playing rather than what they got up to with Ricky Gervais and Jonathan Ross the night before. If you know what I mean.
