    Ok, there are a whole lot of so-called "celebrities" out there who seem to just exist to irritate the viewing public. Share your pain here

    My list:

    * That guy (plays Evan?!?) from The Secret Life of Us who now does the voiceover for EVERYTHING!! Lesse, 2dayfm, toilet cleaner, farm equipment etc. Annoying

    * Darryl Somers; for getting less and less funny every year. Ozzie was da bomb

    * Joanna Griggs; what credentials does she have to present the sport? The only reason she is even remotely famous is because she married Gary Sweet. Ugh

    * Amanda Keller/Wendy Harmer; unfunny feminists. Need I say more?

    * Dawn Frasier; she may be an olympic hero... but that was decades ago. Now she turns up to the opening of an envelope (usually to flog her book or crap on about something useless)

    I'd have to say that Ada Nicemodeau (sp?) chick from H & A. I can't turn around without seeing a new article on how great she is. Even without the over-publicising, she got on my nerves slightly, so the extra stuff doesn't help. [face_plain]

    two:
    1)ken sutcliff. this dude has NO reason to be on TV, yet he is pushed for every sporting even that channel nine has. i mean, he doesnt know anything about rugby league, yet he presents the state of origin

    2) some chick from H&A. i dont watch the show, but she is EVERYWHERE. she is the really ugly one, no chin, always dying her hair different colours. i HATE her

    Thank god Somers is gone these days. He was my most hated personality.

    Who is the woman that hosts 'Funniest Home Videos'? She's alright to look at, but as soon as she opens her mouth she's second only to Fran Drescher in the annoying stakes.

    Bruce McCaveny (sp?) is another one I can't stand. He'll be about ready to leave channel 7 now that they've lost the Aussie Rules and the Olympics are almost over.

    Red Symons -- the most personality-devoid man on televsion.

    That young chick from H&A that's always pouting.

    Kate Langbroek -- god she gets on my nerves.

    Danni for Home and Away....can a girl get more annoying or demented? Oh, I also agree with wedge, about the 'Funniest Home Videos' woman.

    I had to serve the Ada girl where i used to work, she wasn't very nice.

    I used to like Paul McDermott, but he's really a rude little prat.

    And you know that stupid vet lady from Harry's Practice who's always going on about Toby the wonderdog? ITS NOT EVEN HER DOG! Phoney dog trainer, she's probably not even a vet.

    I second Sil's nomination of Kate Langbroek. I absolutely can't stand that woman. She isn't funny at all and only seems to be on the panel because they need a bimbo

    Nah, I reckon she's gotten better over the years. She was a nothing when the show started, and she's still a hanger on, but she's not the end of the world. The show is just a platform for the others anyway.

    Ray Warren is the most overated commentator on TV. His swimming work is annoying, and his football stuff is just sad. Andrew Voss is a much better caller.

    The comments that rabbit kept making about phil gould being linesman during the charity shield match last week made the game seem rather wierd, especially when a brawl nearly broke out, so gould ran onto the field, warren was yelling out "Don't go in there gus, we need you to coach state of origin" or words to that effect, the other one was "he's only running on so he can be in camera"

    Yeah, I'd have thought if we didn't like them, we'd just ignore their shows and anything to do with them. You know, since it doesn't interest us.

    I'd have thought the question was self explanatory, oh well...


    EDIT: And Wedge, yes I do ignore those shows, as with most tv, the question was in fact a rhetorical one, more along the lines of a comment one may post on a message board while perusing through it.

    You really are quick to jump on certain ppl around here aren't you?

    That was another rhetorical question, as I already know thw answer.

    The fact that I have no idea who most of the people mentioned are probably says a lot about how much TV I watch. Angela Bishop has a special place in my book of loathing though for reasons obvious to most Aussie starwars fans (I had no idea who she was before the great spoiler incident).

    I was talking to Stinky. But the fact you've hung around this thread when it doesn't interest you shows me that you're checking up on me.

    I'm flattered.

    I got up this morning to see the news, and I caught a glimpse of Steve Liebman. That guy takes the cake for me I reckon.
