    who cares it’s marketed to brain dead kids that wouldn’t know talent if it bonked them on the head

    Oh, no. Didn’t you hear? They’re “classing it up” this year to be taken more seriously. Obviously, with their choice of host. (Not that I don’t love Russell Brand, because trust me, I do.)

  • Chloe

    No…Probably not. I did hear they finally made some much needed changes so the entire show isn’t fixed. But, come on Russell? I hate it when he hosts the show. He always interrupts everyone at the wrong time.

    It clearly says in the credits at the end of the show the producers choose the winners. I think it’s funny everyone is voting their fingers off for their favorites and it doesn’t matter at all!

    My friends and I are not watching the show anymore so it doesn’t matter who they get to host it. The producers obviously want The Hamburger Games to win everything…yes, I know I said ‘hamburger”.

    I agree to a point but Brand, never liked him, still don’t. He’s crass and he thinks he’s super. Well, I won’t elaborate on that.
