Is anyone else watching Eurovision?
We get drunk and watch it every year. The music is hopeless, and the voting is bizzare, but when drunk it never fails to amuse.

I'm drunk but not watching Eurovision. I still have some self-respect.

The Contest has been broadcast every year since its inauguration in 1956 and is one of the longest-running television programmes in the world. It is also one of the most-watched non-sporting events in the world, with audience figures having been quoted in recent years as anything between 100 million and 600 million internationally.

Is the British entry this year a team of performance artists who hit themselves in the eye? :toporly:

I have never even heard of Eurovision, Jedward or Blue. ???

Eurovision is seen by everyone as a complete joke. The music is abysmal. Almost everyone who watches it watches for the comedy value.
Funny thing is, word is that the Americans love the concept, and are interested in setting up their own version.

For the record I hate American Idol, reality TV, talent shows and Jersey Shore like buffoonery.

Just thought I'd clarify , by "Americans love Talent shows" I mean , the majorirty and it's telivison broadcasters not individuals :P

Blue are just a crappy boyband who were big here a few years ago. Jedward are 2 retarded hyperactive twins who shot to fame on a talent show. They're a national joke.

Not like a variety show. Each country nominates a cheesy pop song, and then all the other countries vote for the winner. It always ends up with countries voting for their neighbours and then the losers getting butthurt over the bad voting system

Oh, I know. I was just clarifying my own position. I know American's love this stuff, but I cannot for the life of me figure out why. :dunno:
-
Blue are just a crappy boyband who were big here a few years ago.
Were they poked at in a movie called "Love Actually"? If so, I didn't know they were real.

I had no idea. I'd never seen the film, but just googled it, and yes. It looks like it's them.

So AZERBAIJAN won?
Is that a good thing?
Is this like the Olympics?

OMG, I've only ever seen clips of Bucks Fizz. I don't think I was even born when they won :laugh: I've seen clips of ABBA, and Celine Dion in it as well. That was before Celine had her teeth done :zombiefuck:
So AZERBAIJAN won?

It's not like the Olympics. It's not even like the Special Olympics :laugh: I think some of the poorer countries take it seriously, but for the more advanced countries it's just a big joke.
I'm not sure if it's a good thing that Azerbaijan won. I can't even remember their song. That's how memorable Eurovision is.
I suppose it's a good thing for Azerbaijan though. They will get to host the contest next year, and it will probably give them a little bit of international exposure. Probably help tourism, and all that stuff. I'm sure some Azerbijanees will be happy. TBH I doubt if too many people in Britain cared who won though. I suppose it's good that one of the poorer countries won it. I'm sure they'll appreciate it far more than we would have.

You probably weren't born Butterflies, i can't recall the year but i was a little girl at the time.
There was a media frenzy afterwards - winning i suppose :thumbdn:
I have to confess, that was probably the one and only time i felt
ashamed to be british
I avoid the show now, takes me back to all that cringing at Bucks Fizz :hide:

You had to deal with the Bay City Rollers as well? As a Scottish band we still get subjected to them from time to time :laugh:
-
I don't hold that against you Butterflies. :lol: Gerry Rafferty and Rod Stewart are Scot so I know it's not all bad. It's not cool to like Rod Stewart's music but I like this one from A Night On The Town anyway.

I think you should get together an angry mob with pitchforks and torches (the burning kind, not flashlights) to go after the rampaging kangaroos. :thumbup: Watch Young Frankenstein if you're not sure how it's done. :zoinks:

No koalas don't hop.
They are slow moving though. All they eat is eucalyptus tree leaves. Nothing else. The only places I have seen koalas is the zoo and at wildlife parks.
