Herc Says ‘I Don’t’ To NBC’s REAL WEDDING CRASHERS!!

Good Morning First by theBigE	Apr 23rd, 2007 05:23:06 AM
I haven't done that in a while. Just tell us - is it better than "The Littlest Groom?"
The Real 40 Year Old Virgin by conniebrean1	Apr 23rd, 2007 05:24:17 AM
Would be a much sadder show. I'd like to see The Real SuperBad myself. That show would kick ass.
"THE REAL" by Hacksaw Jim Thuggin	Apr 23rd, 2007 05:29:05 AM
event horizon.
I can't afford an HD set BECAUSE I spent.... by Andy Dufresne	Apr 23rd, 2007 05:32:02 AM
...all that dough on a wedding.
Took the words right outta my mouth, Herc by TheSeeker7	Apr 23rd, 2007 06:19:17 AM
regarding STUDIO 60, that is. "Gee, good to see they've kept that off the air for THIS!!!" GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.... Not only do I hate reality TV enough as it is, but now I got even more reason because this lame duck of an idea is still acting as a roadblock to a quality drama. NBC, what the fuck is wrong with you?? You already technically give STUDIO 60 a 2nd season order a few MONTHS ago by now, but then you take it off, the first show you put in its place is ALREADY CANCELLED (Black Donnellys) and now you're still choosing to avoid it by broadcasting THIS insult to human intelligence?!?! Goddamnit I really hate this world sometimes. Most times. sigh

Just sayin'...
hard to believe Ashton Kutcher made a dud by HypeEndsHere	Apr 23rd, 2007 07:34:36 AM
even harder to believe Herc reffered to him as a "mastermind". way to lower the bar, America.
Please god, let this show by SuperMikeChu	Apr 23rd, 2007 10:08:23 AM
fail. Please give those viewers out in TVLand prone to this dreck the strength to avoid watching this attack on their intelligence. Please god, please.
It will bomb... by Philvis	Apr 23rd, 2007 10:20:45 AM
and then I hope they are forced to bring back The Black Donnellys. I thought that was an excellent show and then I found out last week it was cancelled. What the hell NBC??? You think The Wedding Crashers is going to be anything close to a hit? I give it 3 to 4 weeks tops.
Tee-hee! by Zarles	Apr 23rd, 2007 12:06:18 PM
I heart the fact that Studio Shitty got replaced with this. I hope it starts getting 'Deal or No Deal'-type ratings and eventually gets expanded up to a two-hour format, knocking 'Heroes' to a Thursday-at-4:30 timeslot. Wheeeee!!!
Dogapeandman2, I might watch your show. by Big Jim	Apr 23rd, 2007 12:54:18 PM
However, this show, judging by the horrible reviews across the board, will be NBC's highest rated show of the decade (at least until next week when word of mouth takes hold and it gets even bigger ratings). That's how much faith I have in Nieslon families. Sad. But in all seriousness, it will get good ratings because it follows the first new Heroes in a couple of months. This week's ratings are meaningless - it's new. Let's see how quickly people tire of it. If I recall correctly, Donnelly's got good ratings their first time out but once they lost Heroes as their lead-in, and those curious about anything new moved on, the ratings took a nose-dive.
This show will be gone by the end of May by slone13	Apr 23rd, 2007 01:45:27 PM
Guaranteed
Sweet by Banky the Hack	Apr 23rd, 2007 02:59:22 PM
This slot will surely open up for "Ow! My Balls!"
This show will probably get better ratings than by TVguy4566	Apr 23rd, 2007 03:41:05 PM
either Studio 60 or Black Donnelleys. Actually, it might get better ratings than both of them combined. That is the sad reality of reality shows. They are immensley popular and cheap to make. I think this show will be the final nail in Studio 60's coffin.
TheSeeker7 by TVguy4566	Apr 23rd, 2007 04:10:12 PM
I don't think they gave them a second season order for Studio 60. In November, they gave them an order for the final 9 episodes this season and rumor was that NBC forced them to lower their licensing fees to get it done. Based on how Studio 60 hasn't gotten on the schedule again and May sweeps is right around the corner, I think NBC will burn off the final episodes in the summer and we won't see season 2 of Studio 60 at all.
NBC - the Game Show Network by Larry of Arabia	Apr 23rd, 2007 04:40:40 PM
Someone tell me how Deal or No Deal, Heroes, and The Real Wedding Crashers have any kind of demographic flow. The first show is aimed at housewives, the second at 18-34 year old males, and the third at teens/very early twenties. NBC does have some quality shows but they are lost in the prattle of game show lead-ins. That lowest ratings week ever had six hours of game shows. Three of them lead off the night. Where does the audience of Identity and Rains match up? Save NBC from itself and get them someone who knows how to write a schedule. And about that Saturday night of reruns... would it hurt them to blow off a movie or something?
"an HD broadcast: Hugely Dumb" by Voice O. Reason	Apr 23rd, 2007 08:33:10 PM
Witty.
bad but will be a hit by McGsStepson	Apr 23rd, 2007 09:14:16 PM
this show is just crappy enough to piss off fanboys of both Studio 60 and The Black Donnellys and at the same time get a sizeable audience of reality show viewers - so inevitably it will. You can look forward to seeing this three nights a week by fall.
"Call it the corporatization of "Punk'd," by INWOsuxRED	Apr 24th, 2007 10:50:07 AM
Oh no, you mean Punk'd sold out to the man? Ow!! my balls! indeed. I'm shocked something so horrible could come from the network that brought us an hour long show where people guess what number is in a box.
watched it and... by Philvis	Apr 24th, 2007 01:46:30 PM
it definitely will get old quick. If this were just a punk'd type show in general it may have a chance, but restricting itself to weddings is definitely a few nails in the coffin. I still don't think this will get more than a few episodes aired, but what worries me the most is the shows it will spawn on FOX and other networks. God help us all.
Didn't bother. Who gives a shit? by ZeroCorpse	Apr 24th, 2007 02:49:07 PM
Really-- Was Ashton Kutcher raised on a steady diet of Ed McMahon & Dick Clark's TV Bloopers and Practical Jokes? Or is he just a long-lost relative to Alan Funt? What's his fascination with TV prank shows? NOBODY CARES, Ashton. Get a new shtick. You want to entertain people? Release a sex tape with your wife well-lit and going crazy naked. We'll watch that. The girls will dig seeing you, and the guys will be all over watching Demi even though it will be like watching you bone your mom. REALITY SHOWS MUST DIE!
NBC-- Here's an IDEA... by ZeroCorpse	Apr 24th, 2007 02:53:05 PM
Get Battlestar Galactica, and put it on NBC in HD after "Heroes" where it fucking belongs. SciFi is fucking it up by broadcasting in what I'd have to call "WDTV" (Worst-Definition Television) -- Seriously, SciFi's broadcast signal looks like crap no matter what provider I get it from! Battlestar Galactica deserves to be on next to the other best SciFi show on television. GET IN GEAR, dipshits, and stop putting it on next to lame shit like "Real Wedding Crashers" or "Black Donnelys"== Give us some other scifi show we give a crap about. You've got the geek audience tied up at 9:00 PM Monday nights, and then you just DROP US like a hot potato at 10:00 PM, like fucking idiots. Great job programming to the audience BONE HEADS.
umm....Why did we notice this ? by Cory849	Apr 24th, 2007 03:50:23 PM
or mention this exactly? Its spring. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and nobody is watching. I saw this thing for about one minute last night and the pain MADE me turn the channel. My other emotional response was pity for the poor actors involved. Someone give them a job on a soap opera or something. This was just cruel. Other than that - no more chat about this. Life be too too short.
