Welcome to......
Kill This Thread XLVII
The following rules were established by Kent Shakespeare at the start of the first 24-hour version, adapted from the original rules by EDE:
The rules:
1. The Basic Idea: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!
2. Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and response nses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.
3. In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.
4. So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.
Here's a history of our various felons, along with a few missed opportunities.....

Well, since American Idol killed the last thread, it raises the question: which AI is more evil, American Idol or Artificial Intelligence?

There is no doubt that it's Idol. Or any of those talent shows for that matter.
I mean seriously, how many of these folks go on to any real fame afterwards? I think I can count on one hand.

Reality TV in general, I find troublesome.
Lots of people doing stupid things in front of the camera.

Yep. Attention for attention's sake.
I don't know if this is a thing where you are, ibby, but I see it here in the states occasionally, mainly in the cities, where you have people talking on their cell phone in speaker mode in a room full of people instead of using a headset.
Where did they learn this behavior? Reality TV.

I have a guilty pleasure of watching some reality shows with my family when I visit them. It's one of the few things we can all agree on watching haha!
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

I will admit that when the first Survivor series came out I watched very religiously. Then I found out how the sausage was made and I've never wanted to watch it again. LOL

The only reality show competition I ever really got into was The Mole, which was also my introduction to Anderson Cooper.

In the Legion forum, several posters have compared Marla Latham to Anderson Cooper.

Which means Andy Cohen is RJ Brande. Now things ACTUALLY make sense.

I always found them getting drunk on live TV to be very entertaining

And hard-working! There were almost no fill-in artists on Legionnaires.

Yep, just a handful of times, and usually when Jeff was working on an Annual.

I'm telling you, its a top 5 classic Legion issue, but it never gets mentioned in all the podcaster talks, cause they are all stuck in Levitz-land and/or reboot-haters
