• MAFS is coming back

    From keithr0@3:633/280.2 to All on Wed Jan 1 10:48:29 2025
    As Margret Pomeranz said

    "A groundbreaking social experiment in which mentally fragile halfwits
    marry toxic fame tarts. Romantic hapless singles marry a stranger,
    picked by experts from a dazzling array of psychopaths and D-minus duds
    with apparent stench disorders, and the participants don’t disappoint, representing a smorgasbord of only the highest quality horse meat
    garnished with the finest of red flags. Couples then live as newlyweds learning all the profound and intricate ways in which they are wildly incompatible."

    "A panel of experts observes, offering sage wisdom on how the couples
    can wholesomely develop and enhance their new relationships,” she said sarcastically before cameras cut to a scene of resident sexologist
    Rampolla giving pointers on anal sex. "But as the sham marriages between mentally defective lemons inevitably crumble, it’s the experts who
    shine, feigning emotions in performances worthy of an Olivier"

    “One might argue that watching ill-suited strangers in an environment designed for their psychological destruction may seem repulsive, but
    there’s a compelling brutality here, and as the nation’s highest rating program one can’t help but salute the show’s producers, stars and fans
    as they gallantly approach the flaming corpse of broadcast TV and
    elegantly urinate on its ashes. May God have mercy on us all.”

    That was quite amusing, although I don't really know anything about
    the show myself.

    I just watch ABC/SBS to avoid too many ads. But you can't even
    watch the new year's fireworks on the ABC without them finishing
    straight into a half-hearted montage of their hoped-for 2025
    programs, most no more appealing than MAFS.

    Nothing is less appealing than MAFS, I've never watched the show, but
    the adverts for it are diabolical enough.

    I usually avoid ads by recording the program on a DVR and playing it
    back later fast forwarding through the ads. We watch the ch9 news since
    it has more local content than the ABC or SBS, we just start watching
    15-20 minutes after the recording starts, FF through the ads, and sport,
    and catch up with live during the weather forecast at the end.

    I used to have a DVR that actually removed the ads itself, I have no
    idea how it did it, but it died anyway some time back.

    I do that on SBS, but the others have so many I get fed up with
    FFing.

    I didn't know that made it into DVRs, but I've long considered
    trying Comskip to do it on PC. I never really wanted to stuff
    about with setting things up for it though.

    I confess I've never heard of it!
    Has it been banned in Melbourne?
    Is it like that "Big Brother" outrage?
