Walker

That is silly, Freddie wasn't that buff and was incapable of expressing anger. I'm happy with the Top 3 though.

Since around the same time The Large Hedron Collider was a person. As well as the US Election. And since Bin Men, BB Housemates, Boy Bands, and the citizens of Lesbos all counted as one person to. They should really call it the Most Annoying Things 2008, or just the 2008 Most Annoying List.

And the Top 50: (a lot of them are in for just being themselves, so i will only put a reason in if it is significant) Feel free to trash the list further.

Bowie

It missed Brand (he is always the front runner for the silly comedians, with Fielding in his wake). Lock made the show for me, but no where near as funny as previous years. John Snow did what he did best. And Winkleman strangely attractive.

It is not that getting the answers right isn't funny, but with that happening as well as Brand and Fielding doing random shit and getting the questions wrong at the same time there is no reason not to find it funny. It sort of caters to everyone. And since i like all sorts of humour, it is like being attacked from all directions with different types of 'funny', ultimately ending up in a laughing fit for me. I am still going to watch it, and am still going to give it a chance, but i don't know where the 'alternative' type of humour is going to come from, or if it will even exist this year.

The full story is that she admitted to using cocaine during the 80s, but stopped when she found out her dealer was a Nazi. Take that for what you will.

David Cameron is likely Britain's next Prime Minister and is annoying without much aid. The incident where his bike was stolen was highlighted though. The idea is that Cameron goes everywhere on his bike, pushing his green agenda, while also being overly positive about the inner-city crime culture. It seemed like delicious irony that he got his bike stolen. However, he did get reunited with his bike shortly after some footage taken minutes before the incident was unearthed by a tabloid newspaper. Speculation is that it was staged, or at least done on purpose by the same tabloid newspaper.

I don't like the lack of Russell Brand and Noel Fielding. Who else is going to play the "We don't care if we win or lose" type of game? In previous years it has been the serious competitive team (Brydon & Mitchell), the respected comedian with a celebrity (Wossy and ... I think Carol Vorderman), and the silly team that doesn't care (Brand & Fielding). I have always liked that three way contrast. This year it just looks like you have three teams with no real differences. Hopefully the genius of McIntyre, the dryness of Lock, the OTT happiness of Corden, and the all-round goodness of O'Briain will complement each other. I am looking in particular to Lock and Corden, who being on the same team will present a contrast in itself.

Myleene Klass being on there did really irritate me. I just love watching the many "celebrity" contributors try and justify why a certain person is on the list and not have a clue. For Myleene they were basically saying she was doing too much after having a baby, which somehow is a bad thing. Chris Martin was put on there for pretty much being in the spotlight for the first time in three years. Carla Bruni is on the list because, as far as i can tell, she is the wife of the French President while at the same time being gorgeous and talented in her own right. Oh, and Ricky Martin, for not telling the press that he is gay or straight. Some reasons just edge on pathetic, but mainly just confirm how jealous people get.

It is something BBC puts on every year around this time, simply a countdown of the 100 most annoying people of the year based on news stories and actions within the public eye. It happens in two-parts, first of which was on yesterday and is now available on iPlayer. Obviously, i watched it, because i'm the type of cynical arsehole this programme targets. Here is the list so far, 100-51. I have put the reasons in brackets, spot the ones i agree with and disagree with. 50-1 will be on tomorrow night. I am expecting the usual names to come up (Katie Price, Paris Hilton, Kerry Katona), a few politicians (Gordon Brown, George Bush, Barack Obama, John McCain), and a couple of singers (Amy Winehouse, Britney Spears). I'd have thought Steve McClaren would be much higher. Like, top ten. But i guess there is bigger fish to fry.

Eurovision Song Contest w/Graham Norton Big Brother Dancing On Ice I am a sucker for "quality" TV. Also, Peep Show, QI, and anything in the same vain.

Freakazoid and Johnny Bravo, forgot about those two. And Thundercats ... never watched it when i was young.

I believe when Ruth went her voters went turned to Alex, because she was the next best singer. And when Diana left, her fans went to Alex, because everyone wanted Cheryl to win. That is how this works though. It is much better being everyone's second option than a few peoples' first and everyone else's last.

You win. Of course, you've missed some vital ones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GegKEa9TW-M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CW54W9y6-eU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tm7qfzqpKcw - Most underrated cartoon ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMIqGulaLnI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2IGyUn2BdU - Best cartoon ever. More will come to me eventually. EDIT: Here you go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq0ZJgb-VX4

I just thought ... Card Captors or Duel Masters.

Monster Rancher did take place in an alternative word, but i can't remember any rocket ships.

Alex was completely and utterly upstaged by Beyonce, and she just embarrassed herself with what she did afterwords. I was cringing on her behalf. I am still supporting JLS, i thought their first and third songs were better than the other two's. Second song wasn't as good.

I would like JLS to win tonight. Of course, i never vote and i never buy the single afterwards, so my opinion won't matter for anything. As long as Eoughannougggan doesn't win i'll be happy.

Which i will be in April. Bought the tickets on Thursday. £18 each.

Diana went. And the riots have just started.

I find it hilarious that as the series continues, someone takes one step further to call out Amstell. It started with just dirty looks every time he spoke to a panelist, and now has Dappy cutting him off mid-sentence to say he sounds like he is being sarcastic. If this continues someone is going to turn the tables and start verbally assaulting Amstell. I also think the reason the quality of guest has gone down is because of Amstell and the generally direction of the show in these later series. It used to take music seriously, and just mock certain aspects of it while still treating the musicians on the show with respect. Amstell's Buzzcocks seems to be more concerned with insulting guests, nit-picking everything and trying to undermine the musicians. I think that is why now we have guests like Bill Oddie, and before you had Slash. Of course, that isn't Amstell's fault, but he is part of the self-destructing frame of the current show.

Sam Spade at 80 just makes me happy for being in the list. The lack of Walter Neff from Double Indemnity cancels that out though.

1 - David Bowie 2 - Ian Curtis 3 - Freddy Mercury 4 - Johnny Cash 5 - Bob Marley 6 - James Brown 7 - Bob Dylan 8 - Meatloaf 9 - John Lennon 10 - Bruce Springsteen

Spaced comes to mind instantly. Could have easily went to a third series.
