So you think you can jig
A more boring TV show I cannot imagine.
I must admit a hatred to ‘dance’ due to years of forced viewing by proxy of a jazz ballet competing sister. Jazz ballet is the most boring of the worlds sports….. in my humble opinion of course. Lawn bowls out ranks it in all facets not least of which skill.
I had not watched ‘So you think you can dance’ due to the fear of it being full of desperate people, dancing a jig and hoping that it will somehow impress us. After consultation from a friend I was assured the show was much more than this.
I listened to this friend and under the “don’t knock it until you have tried it” banner I bravely watched SYTYCD. Unfortunately all that resulted is I now have a deep-seated concern that my friend is indeed a closet homosexual! Not that there is anything wrong with that of course.
I don’t understand dancing like a maniac. I don’t see what purpose it serves and it does not inspire me personally whatsoever. A person who can move there body in time with the music and jig around like some sort of detoxing drugo on red cordial is as far as I am concerned a waste of radio waves. Channel 10 would be best served to bring back re-runs of Seinfeld and if possible Ned & Stacey. Two quality shows that have not yet, had their time.
I enjoy music in most forms, I enjoy art in terms of paintings and sculpture. I wouldn’t call myself a cultured person but I know enough about it to know that dance is the of know interest to me.
‘So you think you can dance’ is the worst example of entertainment since ‘Extreme Makeover’. Then again I haven’t seen the new liar liar pants on fire show ‘Moment of Truth’ yet so maybe SYTYCD can be moved to second on my most hated list. The only redeeming feature of this show is the smoking host, Natalie Brassingexchickoffneighbours.

Two of the worst shows on TV, yet somehow they make it to prime time

Yes the biggest loser isn’t on of my favourites either. Your a National Geographic man I am guessing.

You don’t like the dance shows. Well thats a suprise! If it doesn’t involve trying to knock someone out or whip a poor animal to get across the line then it doesn’t rate a positive thought from you. Why don’t you go to one of your local ballet company’s productions. Swan Lake would be a good place for you to start, it could open your eyes to a whole new world of educated people and intelligent conversation.

Thanks for the thoughts Rob B. I am not interested in trying Swan Lake, it sounds like you may be insterested in a little culture of your own. Have you tried the cement culture? Its a wonderful new little trend.

The kids watch this watch this show but I prefer 60 minutes. They can watch it in the other room so it doesn’t bother me. Having seen the adds etc it looks very average and not good at all. To much so called reality tv on these days. Bring back mash.
Shirvy, I think Rob B would need more than a teaspoonful!

A whole mixer full perhaps.
