Despised Aussie TV personalities - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Ella · 01-25-2005, 02:05 PM

Who are the ones you really cannot stand to watch? The ones who you feel compelled to hurl the coffee table at when they appear on the box?

I have a few....let's do our Top Three....

1. Daryl Somers
2. Ray Martin
3. Eddie McGuire

Next?

Leo · 01-25-2005, 04:32 PM

Can't say I despise him, but Andrew O'Keefe is probably my least favourite tv personality - tries way too hard.

Latch · 01-25-2005, 05:09 PM

did someone say try-hard? Kate from The Panel can get bad sometimes.

Mephisto2 · 01-25-2005, 05:46 PM

I have no doubt that Ray Martin is a nice guy, but he's the worst "journalist" I've ever seen.

I also cannot understand the praise Andrew Denton gets for his intereviewing. In a word, he's shite.

The only one I really hate is that smart-ass, short comedian with the annoying face. Can't remember his name; but he's always described as "dry". He does those Australia Day adverts for Holden standing on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Wish the fucker would fall off...

Mr Mephisto

Latch · 01-25-2005, 05:52 PM

Carl Barron? is that his name?

bing bing · 01-25-2005, 05:58 PM

I only have one and that's ROVE.

slimshaydee · 01-25-2005, 06:47 PM

Yeah rove shits me aswell

ryfo · 01-25-2005, 08:03 PM

the sydney bridge man is dave hughs? from nova morning show i dont like ray and daryl somers is nothing without ossie

alpha666 · 01-25-2005, 11:36 PM

yep, rove and his show are a joke. one of the worst interviewers that i have ever seen! infact it has been a while since i have seen or heard anyone do a real interview, when ever they talk to anyone who has a bit of profile they are always licking their arse as opposed to getting a decent interview. rove being a prime example of that!
also ray is terrible, saw him interview john howard and it was like seeing best friends touching eachothers bottoms! horrid!
anyhow that's enough bile from me!

bundy · 01-27-2005, 03:20 PM

anyone associated with channel 9.

Steve Liebman, Tracey Grinshaw, Richard Wilkins, Kim Watkins, Jim Waley, Ray Martin, Eddie McGuire, etc...

all of them, fuckwits.

oh, and Bruce McAvaney and Naomi Robson (TT) from 7, and Tim Webster and Tim Bailey from 10 News as well.

Ella · 01-27-2005, 11:30 PM

I agree with Steve Leibmann. The guy's a shocker.

So how's Tokyo, bundy?

spindles · 01-28-2005, 04:41 AM

Gordon Bray annoys me - just too nice to the opposition teams when commentating...

+ just about everybody mentioned above (though I don't agree with the Andrew Denton thing...)

cinnles · 01-28-2005, 07:33 PM

Rove and Gretel colleen make me want to commit multiple homicides.

And that guy who does the "Deal or no deal" show, whatever his name is, he's so fucked it's laughable.

Richard Wilkins, Kerry Anne, the list goes on.

Latch · 01-28-2005, 07:55 PM

I forgot about Gretel.. uugggh.

Rlyss · 01-29-2005, 01:57 AM

Bob Downe. You're a fucking embarassment mate.

My mum hates him too but she's convinced he's got a brilliant mind and is actually a very intelligent person. I, on the other hand, and just convinced that the dumber and more ridiculous your character is the more likely people will claim you have a brilliant mind and are very intelligent. He can't help but 'appear' intelligent out of character because the flaming shame that he is in character is so pathetic.

/serenity now

Arachnid · 01-29-2005, 08:35 AM

Darrel sommers has to be on the list
Dave hughes must be there also

but there wouldnt be a list without Bert Newton ... stupid bastid pokes his head into everywhere and anywhere

Cheers

riprip_25 · 01-29-2005, 10:34 PM

The entire Daddo family!

noGon · 01-29-2005, 11:39 PM

^^^ LOL
agreed

Latch · 01-30-2005, 08:28 PM

This isn't really a presenter.. and it's local to Geelong/Melbourne... but Chris and Maury from whatever plant farm they own/run.. I hate them.

deekaybee · 01-30-2005, 11:05 PM

In no particular order:

Gretel Colleen
Sam Newman
Toni Pearen

spindles · 01-31-2005, 06:25 PM

I would probably despise Sam Newman if he wasn't a Victoria only phenomenon

Latch · 01-31-2005, 07:40 PM

I like Sam Newman.. he's so up himself it's funny. Plus he gives Eddie shit on the (AFL) Footy Show.. which is always a good thing.

Stick · 01-31-2005, 10:31 PM

1.Gretel Colleen.
2.The female bogan with the whining voice that hosts Australias Stupidest Home Videos.
3.Dave "I think I'm fuckin' funny but I'm really just a nauseating pain in the arse" Hughes

If I named all the ones that annoy me, it would take half an hour to download the list.

beaco · 02-01-2005, 05:46 PM

Anyone on 'a current affair'.

Gretel Colleen.

I wonder if she likes it up the arse?

And a bit of girl on girl action wouldn't hurt either.

Ella · 02-02-2005, 03:36 AM

Are you pissed tonight, Stick? You're pretty darn frisky!

It matters not.

Let's make her air-tight, do we have a third applicant?

Latch · 02-03-2005, 03:53 AM

I'm in. Just so I can say "I fucked Gretel.. she was horrible".

Latch · 02-03-2005, 03:54 AM

or.. "It's time to blow (me)... Gretel"

yeah, sorry.. I'm ashamed I made the joke too.

Gretel's gunna look like a pin cushion.
We can keep her in my dungeon. (It rubs the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose.)

Latch · 02-03-2005, 01:53 PM

hahahaah yeah.. well you can be the one making a suit outta human skin.. and the one that does that dance while tucking, Stick.

Stick · 02-03-2005, 10:16 PM

Ha ha "tucking". I haven't done that since I was about 13.

Stick · 02-03-2005, 10:34 PM

Just an update on despised Oz TV personalities - though 'personality' is a misnomer. Naomi Robson (I think that's her name - long dark hair, more makeup than Maybelline could supply) channel 7, presenter of an (alleged) current affairs show .

Have you heard that song on JJJ? God I laugh every time I hear it.

I'd probably dislike nicole kidman's sister as well, except whenever I see her I think of the homemade porn and chuckle.

I've never seen the "sally from home and away" porn, sadly.
