The TV Addict Reveals His Halloween Scares II

With Halloween mere days away, this TV Addict thought now would be the perfect opportunity to talk about what scares us in the world of television. So without further ado, we present our Halloween Scare #2: NBC President Ben Silverman.

Not only did the Peacock President further contribute to the dumbing down of America by renewing KNIGHT RIDER for an entire season, he green-lit the snoozefest that is CRUSOE and further hurt America’s standing around the world with the dreadful adaptation of Australia’s hit comedy KATH & KIM.

Yesterday’s Halloween Scare: Amy Poehler.

Isn’t NBC’s KATH & KIM an AMERICAN adaptation of an Australian show?

John,

Thanks for the correction. I’ve correct the post to reflect what I meant to say!

Did you hear that Will Arnet’s character in 30 Rock is based on him. (and 3 other characters are partially based on him too)

I was one of the few that watched the 2 hr premiere of Crusoe. It was sooooo boring (as you stated).

He called 30 Rock the best show on TV a few months ago, so he’s just fine with me. NBC also renewed Chuck for the full season before it even premiered, which is another great thing. I have no complaints so far!
