Scummy NBC whores for "Biggest Loser" by ruining "America's Got Talent"

WHAT the FUCK was on the bottom of that screen ALL through the broadcast of "America's Got Talent?"

Could you call it a subliminal message?

HELL, it was more brazen than that. It was a CONSTANT demand for viewers to watch a shitty reality show about fat slobs called "Biggest Loser."

Who are the biggest losers? First off, the viewers of "America's Got Talent," who were constantly distracted by this vicious, obnoxious whoring. Secondly, the talent. This is their big chance. This is their "audition reel" forever...as most of them will be desperately using it to promote increasingly more futile and desperate local appearances at clubs, schools, and church basements.

CHRIST is this disgusting. Here's Emily West, singing her guts out on the awful "Knights in White Satin" drek from the Moody Blues, and right there in the corner...

Here's a frantic dance/acrobatic group...and NBC's sneaky, disgusting weasels are snickering that the more you stare, the more you'll pick up that subliminal message to watch a shitty program that is totally the opposite of "America's Got Talent" in terms of...for one thing...TALENT.

And here's a moment where judge Howard Stern...who, like Piers Morgan before him, has tended to be the ONE judge most often exactly on target with both praise and "constructive criticism," having no idea that "THE BIGGEST LOSER" is underlining his face!

One reason why people aren't watching as much TV as they used to...is the irritating distractions and promotions that are plopped right on the fucking screen. It isn't GOOD enough that we're watching your fucking show, your fucking network...you have to assail us, harass us, harangue us, annoy us, and pester us with splashes, animations, and in this case...a CONSTANT message for ANOTHER SHOW?

Why couldn't NBC put in a burst and splash ONCE in a while for this fucking "Biggest Loser" piece of shit? Because it's SUCH a piece of shit it required CONSTANT promotion?

What about the rest of NBC's roster? How should all the producers of NBC's other shows feel about the whoring for ONE shitty program over every other? Why the favoritism? Why the big fat plug for this one stinking stupid show about slobs trying to win a prize for losing the most blubber? PS, NBC, if you haven't heard the news (it was probably on CBS), AMERICA IS THE FATTEST NATION ON EARTH, and that's not going to change because of your stupid TV show which in reality is praising gluttons and obese turd-heads. The fact here, is that the "winner" on the show rarely loses enough weight to qualify as "healthy," and how many gain it all back anyway?

As most of the regulars now, the "Got Talent" shows are my guilty pleasure. Despite the incredibly irritating brats, teen boys, cutie minorities, shitty Whitney-type singers, inane Latino dance groups, sweaty all-male dance duos, idiot street jackasses pretending to be robots, fart-mouthed beat boxers and rappers, and other irritants...and despite a few judges who should be slapped all the way out of the theater, kicked to the curb and left there...these shows do have some drama and validity.

For one thing, there's a vicarious thrill for the viewer (that would be ME) in seeing people living out their dream...however stupid it might be...and getting a chance to rescue themselves from humdrum nothingness to at least being able to say "I was on TV" once. While I don't necessarily appreciate professionals being on the show (Emily West, the sort of creepy Bette Midler-looking singer actually has had CD's out, and most of the magicians and comedians tour small clubs regularly) at least these acts are getting a chance to keep at it in the miserable world of small-time touring. God knows it's hard to find "variety" shows anymore, or any place to watch some acrobats, experimental dancers, or some comedians who don't swear with every sentence.

Yes, all the "Got Talent" shows over-play it. There are sob stories, back-stories, manipulative antics, and even faked up drama. This is specially true of the British version where Simon Cowell is prone to stopping an act, dictating a new story-line, or "pretending" to banish someone only to give them another chance. But there's genuine emotion when some old bag gets through a dance routine without falling over, or some kid with stage fright gets the job done, or some clown (literally at times!) gets a second chance and comes back with a better, more improved act that's actually entertaining.

While the "Top 10" is often loaded with acts I loathe, and the winners are often sappy crapsters, the show doesn't deserve to be fucked over by constant promos for some other show. That's a disgrace. An insult. In other words, "America's Got Talent" but NBC has got NO CLASS.
