I'm Complaining About Jerry Springer The Opera

Because its an affront to my intelligence as well as the fact I hate musicals with a passion. In fact I hate musicals almost as much as I hate the hypocritical religious / decency types rallying the troops to launch one of the biggest complaint floods in BBC History for screening it. The best part is that - they haven't even watched it yet... [nuff said]

These misguided moralists have been the bane of my life for decades, and have caused me no end of throbbing temple veins at the sheer frothing at the mouth and rabid desire to uphold some prurient need to screen everyone from the stuff that upsets their repressed and diseased outlook on life.

If it offends you, look away, change the channel or just don't switch the TV on. It harms no one.

However, urging people to complain in a flood of emails at a time when many people are still using BBC sites to trace loved ones caught in the Tsunami Disaster seems both heartless, distasteful and potentially dangerous. It says it all really.
