PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

There are so many things that this show could do without. For instance, the producers of the show mostly chose controversial people that would grab the public's attention and "up their ratings". This completely ruins the point of chosing a person with the greatest comic talent. Second mistake NBC made was allowing the "losers" come back into the house and vote against the remaining 5. Now it is based on revenge and grudges...again, no talent. Lastly, Episode 8 was the Wild Card Competition...need I say more? They were voted off for a reason people!!! Oh man, it is still a great show despite all of these relentless pet-peeves. I am upset over Jay London's win...but I still have hope that John H. or Gary G. will win in the end.

Gawd, I certainly hope Jay doesn't win! I guess it's just me, but I don't even find him remotely amusing. And as for being "popular" well, I just don't see that either.I think the winner will be Alonzo (my choice) or John....either of those would be okay with me. I wouldn't mind Gary, but I don't think he's in the same class as the other two. But I agree with you that they should be judged on their stand-up ability alone and not who's the "nicest" or whatever. Hell, I thought Todd was an obnoxious human being, but that wouldn't stop me from being a fan if he made me laugh (but he didn't). Frankly I don't care so much about anyone's likeability as long as they make me laugh. Um, it's a comedy competition, not a popularity contest.

We >>all saw what happened with >>that... > > >...which is exactly why I stopped >watching AI after LaToya was >voted off. That is EXACTLY why I stopped watching AI as well!! Well, that and I'm really not into pop cover tunes... But I'm probably going to give up all these "vote for your favorite" winner shows altogether since the voting is so blatantly biased (and the ones I like never win anyway...) >I personally think the overall winner >should be chosen by his >or her fellow comedians...Jon Stewart, >Dom Irrera, Brett Butler, Wanda >Sykes, etc.
Now, there's a good idea. Either that or have a live studio audience who isn't privy to the TV show select the winner. And yes, I know I'm naively optimistic when I hope that the public as a whole will ever get this stuff right...guess that's why I never watch the People's Choice awards or similar tripe.
