Moyles again

[Peoplesoft bloke]

He has this thing that people either "get" the programme or they don't.
I may be thick, but it seems it's either

1) He is obnoxious - and that's what there is to get
2) He thinks he's being really clever by pretending to be obnoxious and that's what there is to get.

In a way 2 is even worse - at least you know where you are with genuinely unpleasant people - but people who do it for "fun"?

That's par for the course on here

He's my hero. Innit.

[jmo21]

he's trying to play the so-called "shock jock" role, and fails way short.

He's a watered down, crap version of Chris Evans or Howard Stern.

Now that's funny.

Did this thread have a point? Someone you don't like says either people get him or they don't... how's that different from any other entertainer, controversial or not?

However he does have a point because there are quite a few people who go out of their way to attack him with no reason, the same way you started this thread... they seem to take it personally. If you don't like him, just don't listen or watch his work. There are thousands of crap presenters but where are the threads complaining at them... Piers Morgan, Chris Evans, etc. I bet there are loads of people who hate Wogan's puerile style too.

I hope he dies on air.

I hope he dies on air.

Then perhaps the Beeb can avoid paying him with good reason.

Although for me, him dying on air would be by far the funniest thing he's ever done!

What's your point ?
