The Idiot Box

For those of you not familiar with this website, I would highly recommend that you aquaint yourself.

I was checking through my blog a couple of days ago, and rediscovered TVgoHome, a website dedicated to lampooning the soul-lessness of TV.

Here are my recommendations for new TV projects.

5:30pm

Carol Vordermans Riverbank Suduko Debt Buster


Having drained every ounce of TV coverage with her soul-less consolodation loan-fests, Countdown favourite Carol Vorderman takes to the riverbank to offer financial advice to needy wildlife.

Interspersed with flashing images of high level Suduko challenges, this interactive docu-quiz showcases the wrinkle faced number lover in a "tough love" approach to animal debt.

This week: Carol patronises an otter who has overstretched his budget.

7pm

Extreme Clock Winding with Frank Spencer


Hillarious fly on the wall situational comedy in which clumsy effeminate man-child Frank Spencer attempts to keep a variety of timepieces in motion against the backdrop of a disfunctional family.

This week: Frank desperately tries to restart an antique pocket watch in a flooded bathroom. At gunpoint.

9pm

Celebrity Mismanagement Theatre.


Controversial biopic of every day management situations, handled badly in the style of a classical play.

This week: Ainsley Harriot plays an outraged Hamlet after his racism grievance is dismissed by a curt and disinterested Robbie Coltrane. Things take a turn for the worse when shop steward, Rowan Atkinson attempts to cool the situation with a monologue of the script from "Zulu".

Contains strong language.


10pm

Retiscent Finger Point Accusation Overload.


Hard hitting chat show in which guests slowly get drunk and angry before challenging host Sir Ben Kingsleys questioning without provocation.

Audience participation adds a new slant to the genre where audience members gamble for big prizes on who cracks first.

This week: Jimmy Tarbuck asks "Are you calling me a queer?"

I saw "Pissing On Ants!"
It was great
It was on just after
"Man Slowly Working A Teaspoon Up His Arse"
Now thats what I call prime time television
and the look on his face was a absolute picture!

The Dustbin Man - A one man's crusade to clean up a city in crisis.
Pubic Lice? Pubic Nice? - 2 couples...well you get the picture.
Head And Boulders - Celebritys try to dodge large rocks thrown at them from above. First contestants are Peter Andre, Jordan and their offspring. Were bound to get one of the kids, its fat and blind! easy ratings.

C'mon it took me 4 days to come up with these. Channel 5 surley?

Yes I'm going to hell.

7.45pm: Every-Burty Hates Dave.

Clumsily metaphorical sitcom starring Burt as an accident prone suburban dingleberry subconciously intent on destroying the confidence of his idiot savant best friend Dave.

This week Burt takes Dave to a crack house karioke where he openly flicks peanuts at the back of his head while asking
"Who the hell do you think you are? David fucking Soul?"
