So, how was your weekend? I had a quiet one, and did not get up to much, but I want to write about one of the highlights and something I’ve looked forward to for a couple of weeks…The return of TFI Friday!
It was back for a one-off special on Friday night, live, and it even over-ran. It was such an amazing show and a great look back at 90’s nostalgia, and it’s just a reminder of what TV used to be, and the sorry state it’s in now…Dominated by reality TV! 🙁
If you watched it then you’ll of seen what us 90’s kids used to love to watch on TV; light entertainment, jokes, comedy and just general having a laugh, with celeb guests, chat and live music. We did have many shows like this back in the day, and it was so good!
Don’t get me wrong, I do love the odd reality programme, but that’s probably because there is so many of them on TV now, it’s all there is to choose from! I have wondered when the reality boom would be over, but with shows on Saturday night like Strictly/BGT/X Factor which dominate prime time TV it doesn’t seem like it’s going to slow down; Then there’s the other reality shows such as TOWIE, Made In Chelsea & Geordie Shore which have been going a fair few years now…They will end sooner rather than later I feel, may be within 1-2 years. There’s pretty much only 2 choices these days; Period drama or reality! 😛 What do you think?
