Amazingly Scary Redirect Problem http://www.yourseoconsulting.com/blog/
With Halloween just around the corner, it's time to talk scary TV. And, no, we don't mean the latest "Monsterfest" on AMC or a spine- chilling episode of "Dexter." Those are scary in a good way. We mean scary-bad TV -- certain aspects of the medium that are so horrifyingly awful and/or misguided that they threaten to suck the lifeblood out of our viewing experience. http://www.yourseoconsulting.com/blo...vertising.html Prime example: Those relentless promo spots Jerry Seinfeld has been doing for his "Bee Movie." How much more frightfully laugh-free and annoying can they get? After watching an endless stream of this drivel, we just want to boycott the darn film and dump rocks into Jerry's trick-or-treat bag. http://www.yourseoconsulting.com/blo...08_02_seo.html There are many other things about the current state of TV that have us creeped out. So many, in fact, that we compiled a list. Feel free to grab a torch and join our rampage: # It's truly frightening how ABC has transplanted Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh) from "Grey's Anatomy" to "Private Practice," a spinoff with all the vigor of brain-eating zombies. Even more frightening is how they've turned her from a strong and complex character into a wimpy, whiny version of Ally McBeal. # Speaking of "Grey's Anatomy," it's Norman Bates-scary how demons came to possess the show's writers and caused them to blunder so badly with the gag-inducing plotline that has George hooking up with Izzie. # It has us really on edge that "Two and a Half Men," a mildly amusing, but largely conventional comedy, ranks No. Advertisement 1 among prime-time sitcoms, while "30 Rock," a hilariously offbeat and Emmy-winning laugh-fest struggles to find ratings traction. # It's absolutely terrifying to see how awful "Prison Break" has become. The show ran for two seasons too long, and now it has simply lost its mind. Please, Fox, spare us further horrors and drive a stake though its heart right now. # It's grotesque how VH1's "Flavor of Love" franchise continues to spawn one tacky and trashy debacle after another. Now airing: a second installment of "I Love New York," complete with its foul-mouthed, bulgy-breasted bimbo, her she-devil mother and a collection of dimwitted suitors who make Frankenstein look hot. # It's highly alarming to realize that there are people in CBS upper management who actually couldn't sniff out the corpselike stench of "Viva Laughlin" and allowed it to get on the air. (May it rest in pieces.) # It's ghastly to consider that TV's serial-killers could snuff out FX's "Damages," depriving this addictive legal thriller of a second season. # It's truly shocking (and dismaying) that the gritty, nuanced and heartfelt portrait of teen life offered by "Friday Night Lights" struggles to find viewers, while the pampered and deluded young brats of "Gossip Girl" generate big buzz and earn a full-season pickup. The only place we want to watch them is in a bloody slasher film. # It freaks us out to realize how quickly a fine show such as "Heroes" can lose its mojo. Beset with sluggish plotlines, flavorless new characters and wooden dialogue, it's just not the same show we came to love. Someone needs to perform an exorcism in the writers' room. # It's downright horrifying to know that HBO may never make those "Deadwood" movies it promised us. May the ghost of Al Swearengen haunt the network forever. # It's absolutely appalling to see how they've pulled a chain-saw massacre on a vintage classic by turning "Bionic Woman" into a dark and dreary mess, and by miscasting a charisma-free Michelle Ryan in the lead role. Sure, she has robot parts, but she doesn't have to be totally robotic. # It truly slays us to see how Saturday, with its lineup of reruns and moldy movies, has become the night of the living dead. Calling all engineers to fix a redirect for reward of $25,000 Joel Comm money bribe. |
