5. You don't need a petition to remove a show from television. |
|
There are a multitude of ways to do it. Off buttons and channel changing are popular.
American Idol got removed from my television before it even started!

If I wanted bad karaoke, I'd go to a bar--there's more booze available to make it more palatable than in my house.

10. Oh yes, please. I'd support that bill rider |

I hate that fucking douche. Every suckup in NYC scrambling to work for a 'financial genius' who files for bankruptcy every two years.
And don't get me started on the hair.

Yeah, I know the "if you don't like it, don't watch it" mantra. And surely- I don't watch it. But my roommate does, so I have indirect exposure that way.
Then, you have to endure everybody at work jabbering about it, and they are offended when you tell them to shut the hell up about AI, because SOME of us are trying to work!

18. Well, Disney is in FL and I *think* that AI is filmed in |

LA, so I'm going with miles.

This will all take place when her brother makes parole for killing someone really 'special' (which has made him a bit of a hero to TM's friends)

First, we get Seacrest and Friends off the fucking air, ASAP.
Next, we replace it with...
The Sanjaya Variety Hour!

29. I am totally digging the guy who lost his wife. |
|
And the guy who sang Georgia. There is also this quirky gal I like. Kinda folksy-rocker!

32. I really wish I could agree. Really. |
|
The problem is, Tuesdays from 8-9 there's nothing !%#$#$ ever on. Ever. So I'm inevitably sucked into it on an annual basis.
The only AI contestant I actually rooted for was Taylor Hicks. He at least was interesting and somewhat talented. And you saw how many records it sold him.

35. Can we include "Reality" TV in that petition? |
|
I mean if you are scripting "reality" then it ain't that anymore. Bring back the Gong Show! (and Chuck Barris) :P
