Interactive, You Say?
A new scourge has hit our culture. Friends, we must take up arms against this threat as it washes wave upon wave onto our television screens. We cannot allow this evil to day after day invade our retinas and burn it's image onto our retinas. In short, what I'm trying to day is:
"Who the hell thought it was a good idea to make hundreds upon thousands of incredibly tacky interactive TV games?"
Seriously, who buys this shit? A Little Britain DVD game? Really? Oh, I got a question right and it says 'bitty' and when I get it wrong it says 'what a kerfuffle!' This is so amazing I think I'll play with it for the rest of my life! It's just so brilliant and... *bing* oh, wait... no the novelty has just worn off. And I've answered all of the 15 possible questions in the game. Damn. Oh well, I'll just move on to the next one of the thousands. Bullseye, is it?
Please, I know I plead a lot to companies to stop making things that annoy me, but well, please stop it. This is crap. If you can't see that this is crap, then you don't deserve to have money to buy these things. Even as presents... oh crap, I'm going to get one of these for Christmas aren't I?

**UPDATE**: I went Christmas shopping today. They were EVERYWHERE. Vernon Kay has one for Family Fortunes. Frankie Dettori has one based on sports. There's one for 'You Say, We Pay'. C'mon, what fun is watching Richard Madley go 'umm... errrrr...ummm' and Judy sit there like a rabbit in headlights, if you don't win any money as compensation at the end of it? Right, now imagine that it isn't those two sitting there, but your mates saying 'can we stop playing this crap yet?' and looking impatient. Fun, eh?
