Being Bitch Slapped for 14 Minutes


The week of sub-par programming that I predicted earlier in the week continues as the 4/14 show was 14 minutes of Gary interviewing Porn Stars at the AVNs.

Now lets forget about the time first and just tackle the content. I remembered listening to this bit, and all that I could remember was Howard breaking it up over two days because he didn't seem that into it. It couldn't be that I thought.

14 minutes later though, after being bitch slapped by Doug's incompetence, I realized how very wrong I was. It was the exact same bit. My favorite illustration of how bad this bit is comes when Howard mid-way through has to ask Gary

"I got two more interviews here but I do have to take a break. Let me guess do you ask them if they vomit when they blow guys?"

Even Howard is over this bit. Gary did you ask the same thing over and over again? And this is what Doug and crew think is content?

Now let's get rid of my creative views on the show for a minute. Fourteen minutes actually because that is the exact length of the show. Even if think this is the funniest bit ever, if you do sterilize yourself, you would have to agree this could have been tacked onto an interview as an add on. This is not a show, its a throw away.

Doug decided that Howard was on vacation so a 14 min show could be fine. Shovel the shit while no one is watching. I guess I am understanding more and more why they tell us not to worry. That Howard TV will be back next week with all new shows. At least they see how worried we are because this shit would make anyone question whether they do work over at Howard TV.

Don't Worry. Doug is the Captain of this Ship.
