Skins fucking sucks!

Nuff said.

America's Next Top Model is just as fucked up as Sweet 16. Tyra Banks as a model who went through the whole "sell your soul for the beauty image" thing now peddling the same shit to this generation's youth. Now there'll be a youth generation of girls going through eating disorders and misery because of the bullshit this show insinuates in kids. And all Tyra's doing it for is for notoriety and a few extra dollars. Burn in hell, Tyra!

@mariotaz Amen to that.

The photo-shoot with them all pretending to have died violent deaths seemed gratuitous.

@Daemonhunter17 Yeah. They covered that charming bit of television history on an episode of "You have Been Watching". It had Robert Webb, Michael McIntyre and another person, whose name escapes me, in it.

Also, "Ooh, yeah, I'd give her one. Before the police arrived."

Oh, it made me so happy to only see one "bored" sign for the politics documentary. TV networks should pay attention to this episode.

Fuck Brad and Angelina or Tom and Katie....... the pairing of Charlie Brooker and Konnie Huq is fuckin awesome!

I remember seeing part of one of the episodes of America's next top model where Tyra banks ended up screaming her head off arguing with one of the contestants that got kicked off the show. Why? BECAUSE SHE WASN'T CRYING WHEN SHE WAS SENT OFF, No joke

Aww, I really like Alex Zane. He's actually a pretty intelligent guy from what I've seen of him.
