TV show

Just watching TV and had to turn over...

Am I the only one on this site who really dislikes the TV appearances & show?

The site has many useful tips; the forum .... well, my postcount says a lot....

But.... :eek:

Please tell me I'm not alone!

    You are not alone. I suppose there must be people who prefer having it all passively broadcast at them rather than having to look it up though.
  • I don't like it, makes me cringe somehow. Seems a bit patronising but I suppose I could have turned it off.

    I've never seen it. What channel is it on?
    ITV

    But it's so superficial.

    And as for the gimmicky mock show-biz (a la David Copperfield) presentation...

    Guess we must be talking about Martin Lewis
    He needs to grab peoples attention and the item about Section 75 was very good

    I've just turned over to watch it on ITV+1

    Most of this stuff won't be relative to my lifestyle... so just watching it to see how annoying it is ... and in the first 15 seconds it's winning "Most Annoying" awards by the fistful.

    Mr L always looks like a gay man explaining things to 4 year olds.

    It is actually very educational to everybody under the age of 11.

    Otherwise it is very condescending.
