  1. Oh, very happy with my result especially considering it wasn't even close to qualifying originally! It's the entry I've most been surprised about DNQ so I'm very glad something good came out of it! :D

     

    Nice winner. I've never been overwhelmed by it (yes I did vote for it here but that says more about the overall quality of the final :kink:) but I do like it! Would have mich preferred 'Baby Love' to win though, don't understand the DNQ at all!

  3. I never knew MS MR owned Neon Gold Records!

     

    Yey for 'Froot' being recoginsed as a 'worldwide success' (:unsure: :kink:) but I was hoping for more from Marinas bit considering she's normally a lot more insightful/detailed in her interviews. It felt more like she was just foing it to help out Charli! I'm not sure I entirely got what they were trying to say about the 'Electra Heart' era as I think all artists who 'sell-out' get the same reactions.

  4. So we're finally halfway through and so let's have a recap of all the shows that are still to come! (if you would like to do a write-up for any, please get in touch and PM me!)

    Perhaps one of the most controversial shows ever is South Park. It is an made in the week that the shows airs, helping it to remain VERY topical. Don't let the animation fool you as this is a show that is definitley for adults with it's dark, crude humour. It's also very satirical and has been known to have some form of social commentary underneath. The show has helped maintain its success throughout the years and while it's cultural peak was probably in the late 90s, (where it helped score a UK No. 1 with 'Chocolate Salty Balls'), it is still securing high ratings today and has been renewed until at least 2019. It follows four fourth graders, Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny ending up in bizarre situations. One of the most famous episodes surrounds Kanye West and fish sticks/fish dicks but the biggest controversy that surrounded the show was when it depicted Muhammed. The repeated death of Kenny is also one of the elements that the show is known for and it became a major plot point in its only feature film 'South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut'.

  7. 52. Harry Hill's TV Burp • 197 points

    The show that helped bring 'I'm ready' to our attention, Harry Hill manages to make it to 52nd place despite scraping through in a second tiebreaker. At it's peak, TV Burp brought us a very clever and observational look at the past week of TV, pointing out all the humorous bits we all may have missed as well as taking clips out of context to add a level of unintentional humour. It also helped to highlight some rather odd shows, 'Freaky Eaters' being one that became a regular and it helped bring 5 more minutes of fame to someone obscure who had featured in show that week, having them feature as a special guest or singing the audience out at the end. As the show got more popular though it stated to lose it's charm and you could tell Harry was getting tired doing it. It became a lot more silly and far less observational with running gags unnecessarily forced to the point that it became predictable. I mean, the Amanda Lamb song anyone? As I said, in its hayday it was one of the funniest TV shows and showed Harry can actually be funny, something he hasn't achieved since.

     

    But which regular character was better Wagbo or The Knitted Character, there's only one way to find out...FIGHTTTT.

  9. Ooo two entries Top 40 yay! 'Indian Summer' was an odd choice for me because usually I'm not that keen on the 'just sounds like random noises' type songs but there's something a lot more magical around the song for me, perhaps due to it's theme~

     

    yay for that Klum song in that batch too
