I’d like to note that on the “competition” television shows I discussed in my earlier post, I believe that they all allot approximately 20% of their airtime to upping the suspense, the dilly-dallying and supposedly playing with the audiences emotions, before finally announcing the winner. It consists purely of literally MINUTES of the host playing the “…am I going to announce it? Yes I am here it is!! Wait no just kidding I’m not yet!! Got you that time didn’t I?! Haha only I know who it is! You don’t but I do, look I’m looking at the envelope right now! OK I’ll do it for real now. Here it comes…. and.. the.. winner….. IS….. GOT YOU AGAIN!!” game, complete with 189038 shots of the contestants faces as they wonder what on earth possessed them to put themselves through this utter ridiculousness.
Hey, it’s not like Europeans don’t have plenty of American pop culture aspects to make fun of. Just sayin.
