TV ‘Talent’ Shows
I reckon that television companies are due a massive cunting for their shameful, wilful neglect of aspiring British talent. Especially on Saturday evenings.
The country must be brimming with fresh, eager performers from John O’Groats to Land’s End. People who can sing or play an instrument. People with charming magic or ventriloquist turns. People who can dance or ice skate. They’re queueing up to show us what they can do, and surely deserve a platform to showcase their talents. Especially on Saturday evenings.
You’d think that tv bosses would jump at the chance. It’s a stunning opportunity to offer something really vibrant and original to refresh the jaded palate of the viewers. There’s also a possible cost incentive for them to take into account, as I imagine that it would be pretty cheap to stage such an event. No need to shell out huge fees to attract established stars; wannabees desperate to ‘live their dream’ will perform for fuck all. Just because something comes cheap doesn’t mean that it will be at all tacky.
There’s no doubt about it. TV bosses are total tossers for persistently denying the Great British Public its chance to see some new faces perform in front of the cameras. Especially on Saturday evenings.
