Maybe jello wrestling could be successful, but I'm not seeing it.

I don't really see awards as being a reason for me to watch something. Nor do I like to abide by what other people tell me. If I think something sucks, I'll say it sucks. If I like it, I like it. Otherwise I'm just gonna have to say that you're totally wrong about Wilow. And it wasn't really the character, it was the actor. Although, damn that guy she's marrying. She should have me instead. She would love the bejebus out of me.

The question isn't why you would watch something, but why a large group of people would watch something. I marketing, it is completely possible that something can be wildly successful even though you as an individual may not like. Simply put, people like things for different reasons.

Also, the people I have noticed who are successful in the creative arts, have significat concern for what other people think of their work besides wether they as an individual like it.

Jello wrestling woudl be successful because Wrestling is successful. And it adds in the wholesome goodness of jello.

It seems kind of faddish to me. Seems like something that would be part of a show like Bonzai or Fear Factor, not something that could be its own show for many seasons. And Jello wrestling isn't exactly a recognized sport like wrestling was at one time.

I need to get cast on one of those shows were I get to do nothing but criticize. What a sad existance.

And I would like to add that you all need to work harder at coming up with good TV programing so that I can have my own television and film media conglomerate.

I'm into more specialized TV.  Back when I had cable (i have since moved and now only get PBS) I was either watching ESPN or the Food Network.  I also really dig Junkyard Wars on TLC.

I despise CSI, simply for the fact that the main characters are crime scene investigators and they should not be interrogating witnesses and being detectives - they should gather things up in plastic bags and then go back to the lab.  I can't begin to describe how much that bothers me.

The only prime time TV I watch with consistency is Law and Order (the original) and The West Wing.
