American Idol Producers Baffled by Ratings Collapse
According to the LA Times the curse of Jonah Brown has struck the ratings of the (until now) most successful show on U.S. TV:
And the pace of the fall off may be quickening. Last week's performance show, featuring the songs of Mariah Carey, one of the most successful pop singers in history, was the lowest-rated Tuesday "Idol" in five years among TV's most important demographic, adults ages 18 to 49. The subsequent results show, in which country warbler Kristy Lee Cook got the hook, delivered "Idol's" worst Wednesday numbers among adults ages 18 to 34 since its first season back in summer 2002. Producers also saw depressed ratings for their "Idol Gives Back" charity extravaganza, which this year aired as a stand-alone show with no competition-related material.
Guido has warned before - beware the one-eyed son of the manse, for he is accursed, and all he touches is cursed by him...

Very good Mr Fawkes.
Sometimes this blog is untouchable!
More the faecal touch than the Midas touch...
Is this actually true. Because if it is, I must make sure I never meet him
Ahh...
...'The Brown Touch' strikes again.
I think the audience may have been blinded by McTwats teeth shinning like a million watt light bulb.
He was down in Wales today - wonder what that means for the future health of the Principality ??
OT - That treacherous b*stard Shaun (of the dead) Woodward has just decided to delay the local elections in Northern Ireland for TWO YEARS!

As we say in the good ol' Yoo Ess of Ayy ... LOOOOSER !
(Throws shape of a big 'L')
This is fucking priceless!
Anyone considered sending him to meet the Talibans - it could be the best hope for our troops to win the war!
Perhaps we have all been too selfish keeping the genius of Gordon Brown to oursleves ? Maybe its time we shared him with other - as president of the EU !! ( 2 birds - one stone )
I have to say that Gordon Brown attempting to smile, while doing his usual "here, have a couple of hundred million dollars on me, aren't I great?". Was instant grounds for 'pass the sickbag Prescott'.

Infection: Avoid the Unhappy and Unlucky
You can die from someone else’s misery – emotional states are as infectious as disease. You may feel you are helping the drowning man but you are only precipitating your own disaster. The unfortunate sometimes draw misfortune on themselves; they will also draw it on you. Associate with the happy and fortunate instead.
Bloody Freaks
man in a shed.....
Excellent idea, we'll nominate him immediately, in fact let's email him and tell him to get his sorry ass over to Brussel, asap.
As for Idol, well serves them right Simon Cowell of all people should have known better than have Jonah's train wreck of a face on the Idol screens.
Guido....... Maestro
Gordon is t-shirt of the week at Howies...

Lord Levy's rantings about Gordo will be published in the Mail on Sunday this weekend apparently. Cost them £150K, so let's hope it's worth it!
Don't even dare try and fly over him as that BA777 found out when it crashed at Heathrow

GB is basically just a shit-magnet; he attracts shit wherever he goes; like attracts to like.
Fox TV executive "Understand me.. never have him on again! What possessed you?"
Producer "Sorry boss.I thought it would be a ratings hit. That Mr Bean show is usually so popular"

Here is where Gordon was today !
Hope they kept him away from that Big Computer...
You know this autistic fuckwit is finished when even foaming at the mouth Loon Peter Hitchens has started to feel sorry for him (The newspaper chap, not the the "Real" Peter Hitchens)
I dont, I hope the cunt gets cancer and burns in hell along with Blair.
Brown's latest achivement is to wake up the Guardianista class, let them smell the coffee, and wonder if there is an alternative to working family tax credits, winter fuel allowances, and the complexity of the income tax system.
Comments on Folly Toyboyn's piece suggest flat rate income taxes, higher personnal allowances and the dismantling of Brown's work. I had to pinch myself. Had Folly's comment section been invaded by followers of the Adam Smith Institute, The Institute of Fiscal Studies and so on. Or have the Guardianistas smelt the coffee and realised that Gordon is a loser, creating a system which destroys innovation, entrepreneurship, aspiration, and social mobility.
Perhaps it is Hash Gordon's greatest achievement turning Guardian readers into the arms of the Tories at the next Election.
My God. That video. Isn't he just fucking weird? What *is* that thing he does with his tongue (apart from stuffing it up Blinky's arse)?
Could the one eyed one have caught this off Kinnock at the conference last autumn he was flying high until then.Kinnock started gloating just like Sheffield and look what happened after that.
PLEASE, PLEASE, DEAR LORD. Keep him away from Aldi, this is the only way we can now get by with feeding our family.
Gordon the ultimate Jinx, who is champion of BIO Fuels has driven the world into food shortage and food riots as a direct result.
What is the point of Britain having the best special forces in the world, if they can not take Jonah Brown out?
Motorists should not buy more fuel than normal ahead of a planned refinery strike in Scotland, No 10 says.
Didn't know Jonah had issued the edict. I'll get the car keys
"beware the one-eyed son of the manse, for he is accursed, and all he touches is cursed by him..."
Best laugh I've had all day - well done Guido.
Energy vampires deplete your positive energy like real vampires slurp blood. Energy vampires drain your positive energy, leaving you drained and listless. You know you've spent time with an energy vampire when you leave feeling depressed, exhausted, or sad.
Energy vampires drain positive energy in many ways, such as:
* Intruding on your life, ignoring boundaries and privacy (energy vampires don't think of you).
* Blaming everyone else for their problems (energy vampires don't take responsibility).

"He was down in Wales today - wonder what that means for the future health of the Principality ??"
How about this from today?
"several builders have announced they're postponing (/pulling) new developments in Wales. There are dozens."

There is a "Fash...ah ha....fucked everyone of us..." " just a man with a man's courage..." With apologies to Queen..but it's friday and I am sick to death of this new labour vermin and am too pissed to come up with a full adaptation of the song, so anyone?
this new development in the "jonah phenomenon" is alarming in that , even a televisual presentation can have an affect .
in greek mythology it was said that if you looked directly into the eyes of the gorgon you turned to stone .
this is far worse , as it appears you loose your money and suffer inditerminal stealth taxes and cant get any petrol.
more observations of the jonah phenomenom are likely, but obviously turning off the telly is the safest method of avoiding petrefication or even petroleumcation , the question is is audio or visual , we know the handshake is dangerous , i think hillary is sneakly trying to get brown and obama to meet again for an extra delegate boost, although another obama handshake and it will be allover for him
Has Brown ever met Humphrey Lyttelton?
What are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse again? War, Famine, Pestilence, Death, was it?
The Yanks are just starting to cotton-on to the fact that 'idol' is shi*e; along with the fact they are swelling that twat Cowell's bank balance. The fact that GB was on it only helped the Yanks to see the obvious. BTW- i have never seen a more cringeworthy moment when our unelected PM turned up on Idol and -flushed 100 million- donated some money to god-knows where doing god-knows what. I take that back- the most cringeworthy moment in politics was when Tony Bliar was questioned in mid-air when Dr David Kelly's death was announced.

#Lord Levy's rantings about Gordo will be published in the Mail on Sunday this weekend apparently. Cost them £150K, so let's hope it's worth it!#
Does this mean the mail has just paid the labour party 150k ?
And who on the mail wants a Knighthood ?
Btw latest rumours are that the plane that crashed when Gordo looked at it flew over his convoy and might have been zapped by their electronic counter measures !
And for christs sake dont say anyone but Gordon or we might get Blair back !
Its not just the one eyed son of the manse who is jinxed but all of the ruling party. Ever since Ruth Kelly mentioned the Political Hearsay.com site back in October hardly any one has voted for any of our beloved leaders whatever their leanings!! Start voting again to make sure Gordon stays behind.
