A Message to the VH1 Execs

Dear Sirs and Madams,
I’m a loyal viewer. I watch Best Week Ever every week. I was a huge fan of Behind the Music and Bands Reunited. I even watch a lot of your Celebreality crap, like Breaking Bonaduce, Celebrity Paranormal Project, and god help me I even watched the first season of Flavor of Love. By far though my favorite show you’ve ever aired was last year’s World Series of Pop Culture. I consider myself quite the pop culture junkie and quite enjoyed matching my wits with the contestants that battled for the crown. When I heard about the online exam for this year’s event I jumped at the chance. Last night I sat in front of my computer waiting for the clock to tick down to 6pm CST. When the screen refreshed I typed in my registration information and…..got an error message. I thought to myself, “Okay calm down you must have just entered something wrong.” I waited for the screen to refresh and tried again, and again, and again. I entered my phone number in many different formats. I used different email address. I even tried logging in through other browsers, but each time your site gave me a generic error message telling me to try again. To top it off you kind folk provided me with a clock to watch my dreams slowly circle the drain. Before you knew it the 10 minute registration period was over and I was still trying to get past the first screen. Obviously you underestimated the demand for entry into your little contest and in the end that hurts you more then anyone. Instead of having the best pool of candidates you’ll end up with another group of slack jawed yokels who can’t tell the difference between Donnie Most and Anson Williams. In the end you’ll only be awarding the title to a false champion because you didn’t take the time to gather the best field possible. I haven’t decided if I’ll watch the show when it airs this summer but if I do you can be damn sure I’ll be keeping score as I’m pretty sure my team of one will not only compete against but dominate your faux geeks. I promise you this though; I will not watch another minute of Surreal Life: Fame Game. Actually I came to that decision after the first episode but damn you I will not watch it.
Screw off,
Elliot
