Charlie Brooker on TV Musicals

"As an embittered cynic, i should be programmed to vomit all over the screen at the mere sight of this, but instead, i find it strangely moving. You see, as I stare into their happy smiling faces filled with naive joie de vivre, i know they're just blisfully unaware of the crushing despair that awaits them as they venture into adulthood. The myriad dissappointments, the yawning chasms of pain, the glow gnawing descent into physical decay, the SHEER UNRELENTING HORROR OF IT ALL" - Charlie Brooker on Teenage Musicals

this man is an absolute genius, everything he says is so very true

Phase 1: Create a horrible musical drama aimed at preteen children, yet set in a high school (so the audience doesn't identify with the characters too much, we can only hope) which will teach them to 'stick to the status quo' and all the rest.

Phase 2: ?

Phase 3: Profit.

And it works. Damn you disney.

I think you are dead on with the judgement of the stick up slag bags that alway get what they want, it really ticks me off when people act like that.
