pretty soon the only people seeing hollywierdos will be other hollwierdos.
“Gridiron fans are switching the channel and they’re staying out of the stadiums, too. The Rams and Chargers barely filled half their stadiums.”
I attended the Chiefs-Eagles game in Kansas City Sunday, visiting relatives. It was nearly sold out. The fans were raucous. There were many patriotic displays. Several local civic and military leaders were honored at breaks with strong applause. Probably a much different experience than left-coast teams.
And it was a good game, the Chiefs won, and they look like Super Bowl contenders.
How much money do they have to lose to realize that people want to see their values reflected in entertainment? The more they try and shove their view down people’s throat the less money they will make. Or as Adam from No Agenda would say “Shut up and dance slave!”
I love Good News in the Morning, thanks for brightening up my day.!!
Nice to hear that. I think I’ll start rooting for the Chiefs this season. :D
Where did you get that picture? Who is it? I truly have no idea. Is that a man to the right of him (his left), dressed in red sparkly stuff?
One day soon Colbert will be screaming that someone messed with his glasses and he can’t see anything.
That would be pretty funny. They’d put on plays in their basements and only their friends would show up. :D
On the other hand, “American Horror Story - Cult” which is based loosely on last year’s election has done a very balanced job of ridiculing the left by and ratings make it the 2nd Most-Watched Basic Cable Show of 2017. Had the producer made it one-sided anti-Trump storyline, that would never be the case.
They’re not my team, but they are good!
“And it was a good game, the Chiefs won, and they look like Super Bowl contenders.”
They often do in the early season. But your bigger point that in fly over country football is doing just fine, is true.
And GO CHIEFS!
The NFL/Entertainment industry are currently engaged in what is known as a “circle jerk”....
I cannot WAIT until the last middle-aged, Heterosexual, Judeo-Christian male refuses to give his money to these a-holes....
They’re not my team either. But I have rooted for them a bit in the past. Glad that they are doing well. :D
Even South Park has jumped the shark. Couldn’t crack one joke about Obama for 8 years and last night they directly editorialized against Trump AND introduced a gay relationship for no other reason than to virtue signal how great they are.
Its not just the Trump-hate - that’s all recent
Its the perversity, lack of humor, lack of any style or grace, gay promotion, hate of middle-America, etc... that turned me off Hollywood years ago.
OMG re the photo of Colbert and the dancers in red: was the black dancer a tranny or just a woman making a “statement” with her gross hairy armpits?
Reminds me of the Michelle Obama hairy/sweaty armpit photo LOL.....
They have lost sight of WHAT their professions are supposed to be. Movies, plays, music, games- they are ALL meant to be an ESCAPE from dull,stressful reality. They are where you USED to go to avoid thinking about politics, war, misery and daily worries. To bring all that into entertainment is to negate their purpose. Entertainers are free to express their opinions, of course, but just like everyone else(especially the people THEY vilify and reject) they must suffer the consequences. In their case it is angering and alienating their paying audiences. Some may be rich enough never to have to work again, so they don’t need our money-but not most. And the inescapable fact is their audiences don’t NEED them to live.They need them for escape and entertainment(which is a luxury) and if entertainment doesn’t provide that they are not needed at all.
