LOL a whole thread to complain about the Emmys even though all of you refused to watch it. This is entertaining.

To summarize this thread:

Hey, did you watch the Emmys last night?

No, did you?

No.

They sucked.

Yeah, they did.

Glad I didn't watch.

Me, too.



LOL at the phony outrage over something no one saw.

Oh yea, I forgot, the outrage machine needs fuel.

Carry on.
No I didn't watch it. And no I'm not outraged.

A couple of thoughts though:

When I watch TV shows like athletic events and awards shows (which I don't anymore but I used to) I want to be distracted and entertained. The big news about football isn't football, it's about who kneels and who doesn't. The big news about awards shows isn't about the craft of actors/producers/writers, it's about who insulted the president and how.

When athletes and actors venture so far away from their professional accomplishments that nobody cares about their accomplishments, there's a problem. When ratings negatively affect bottom line dollars there's a problem. When athletes and actors consciously and deliberately anger and/or alienate large portions of their supporters, there's a problem. Truthfully I don't care as much as others on this forum seem to care. Also truthfully, I think that there are tangible and legitimate ways to disagree with policy or president that WOULDN'T alienate large portions of the population. There are business-smart ways to make your point and "politic" for leaders and policies you DO support. But what they're all doing isn't that.

Demonizing, insulting, disrespecting, minimizing, alienating and basically showing you a$$, neither ingratiates yourself to the masses, furthers your agendas in positive and productive ways, or has the expectation of meaningful results. After almost 2 years their behavior has resulted in nothing of consequence. But they are so full of themselves and so full of hatred that they either don't care or don't realize just how sad and distasteful they appear to so many.

There was a Golden Girls rerun on last night. I did not watch it.

This is the purpose of this thread, right? To post about what tv shows we did not watch last night?

No, no, no, you're not doing it right. You need to whine about what you didn't watch, and talk about how much what you didn't see sucked.

Geesh, do it right or don't do it at all!
