Web Soup (2009– )

Utter garbage

[9 October 2011]

What kind of laziness is it when TV doesn't even bother to produce the content of the programs any more and simply trawls the web for boring, tired and stale old videos that everybody has seen and provides the TV equivalent of an annoying email forward?

A viewer can have a lot more fun in a few minutes on the web than watching this particular attempt to grab views.

The presenter comes across as an annoying jerk, the kind of person that enjoys the TV series Greek might find him mildly amusing, everybody else will just be irritated.

The meme that "Hollywood is out of ideas" looks laughable in the face of uninspired smug trash like this.

0/10. May FSM have mercy on your souls.

Destination Truth (2007–2012)

Utter garbage

[13 August 2011]

Over-hyper rubbish made for the ignorant and superstitious.

The presenter is a supercilious, self-important publicist who cares not a whit for the truth or even a destination unless he can get some gullible production company to subsidise his trip there. The editing is woeful and 30 years out of date and the use of cuts to bring an impression of drama is pathetic.

These clowns have not, and will not, ever find anything interesting because if they ever did we'd have heard about it from proper researchers, not bloviating cretins like this crowd. The blatant product placement is yet another reason to find this insult to the viewing public reprehensible television at its worst.

This is one of the worst things my TV has ever spewed at me.
