antiMUSIC is reluctant to present Slapped!
with Scott Slapp. Hes been bugging us to do this for a while. So we figured
what the hell, lets give him a shot at it. If he isnt assassinated by
an irate fan, Scott will check in with us every day to tell us who needs
to be Slapped.
As always the views expressed

Slapp of the Day: Fox TV
It's great to be back. I want to thank
all of you that complained and helped get my column canceled. You
rock! Yeah, Crue heads I'm talking about you! Don't let the hairspray
get to you brains this time. I'll smack those geriatric yoyos around
some more in the coming weeks. After much pestering the big guy here agreed
to try this little experiment out. The Slapp of the Day in Born! Because
it's a daily thing and there are not enough musicians to slapp around,
I will venture beyond music on some days to slapp others that need it.
So with that in mind I kick off this new series with a slapp of an entire
TV network!
Fox needs a huge old slapp. Not only
for sucking and putting on really bad copies of other shows but succeeding
in doing what the Crue heads tried to do to me. Canceling something cool
and leaving us hanging. I'm talking about their spoof of "The Apprentice",
a little ditty called "Big Fat Obnoxious Boss". It's wasn't quality
TV by any stretch, I mean we're talking Fox here, but it was sarcastic
as all hell and it was fun watching these bozos do ridiculous things each
week to try and win a job with the world's second worst boss (the first
is the head bozo at Fox). The Fox programming morons pulled the show
last year halfway through the season. You should never let a show like
this hanging half way through. At least do a one night marathon like NBC
had the decency to do with "The Restaurant". But no the jaggoffs at Fox
pulled it off in favor of "Malcolm in the Middle" repeats. First
they were gonna bring it back but then decided they would post the remaining
episodes on their website in late January. It's now Feb 1st and no episodes.
So Fox basically screwed the fans of this show three times. Gee thanks,
see if I stay tuned to watch the "Worlds Lamest Network Exploitation Special"
part 15 next Thursday. This wasn't a beautiful slapp to start things
off with but it needed to be done. If you have a target for a slapping
let me know by posting in the Fan Speak. Until tomorrow, Slapp
Out!
Scott Slapp is a professional
a**hole and rock critic, as well as antiMUSIC contributor. His biggest
aspiration in life is to become Eddie Vedder.
Your
turn.

Has anyone seen House? I'm really surprised that the show has a) made it onto Fox in the first place b) hasn't been killed yet. It's surprisingly good and I don't go for the usual doctor drama stuff. Maybe it's the sarcasm I so love but given that it's on Fox they will probably kill it. I'm still pissed at Showtime for killing "Dead Like Me".

Fox's only good shows are the Simpsons(whos quality has declined in the last few years), 24, and Family Guy. Thats pretty pathetic for an entire network, all they do is show that reality sh*t.
