Geordie Shore?
 
Surprised there's not a thread about it ....

Anybody watched/watching Geordie SHore?

Don't normally watch this kind of crap but caught a glimpse of it and some of the stuff the 'contestants' were saying was like playground stuff - boasting about their manhoods, sh1tty put-downs etc - seems like a bit of a laugh !

Apparently the Geordies have been complaining saying that the programme is misrepresenting them :(

Lisawrx 31 May 2011 12:33 PM

Yes, seen it and yes, us Geordies are complaining.

It was embarrassing to watch tbh. They were all complete idiots, but I suppose following a group of normal people about would make for boring TV. :brickwall

Lad who works here knows the fat lass on the show. She is from Middlesbrough (Ingleby Barwick) so not quite sure why she's on "Geordie" shores?

Haven't see it myself. Don't intend to watch it either.

A viewing pane into the world of depravity and debauchery......

I blame Big Brother for leaving this legacy of sh1te "reality" tv :mad:

Quite probably, but no idea personally. I don't usually watch this sort of TV, but as it was about 'Geordies', I thought I'd give it a go. Truthfully, I never expected it to show us in a good light.

Brilliant tv. All the wannabe Cheryl Coles.lol and the guys pumping anything that moves. All we need now are subtitles to understand them. Now if you want to see real sh*t life you should watch the sheme. Defo need subtitles though.

Jonnys3 01 June 2011 09:18 AM

This is meant to be an English version of Jersey Shore (its US predecessor). It's absolute trash TV, but because it's trash it's compelling viewing and very addictive!

Gear Head 01 June 2011 09:29 AM

Stupid show full of stupid people. All of which still have to ask for money from Daddy. :rolleyes:

bluenosewrx 01 June 2011 10:20 AM

When that girl said oh my dads dowstairs and i was getting it from that lad, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh how cheeky.

Really? Wow, classy girl then. :rolleyes:

Jonnys3 01 June 2011 12:21 PM

I forgot to mention the show is all prefabricated too!

Hysteria1983 01 June 2011 12:28 PM

I haven't had the chance to watch it yet, BUT, I have watched all 3 seasons of Jersey Shore. The American reality show that this has been coined from.

To give an example of how popular the US show is, each 'cast' member is getting paid £100,000 each per episode for the up and coming fourth season!!

If the UK version is anything like the US one, it's possibly a bunch of fake baked slags, getting pissed and mouthing off.
It's stupidly embaressing to be honest, but it's addictive.

You got it in one! They have also tried to base the Geordie "characters" on their Jersey Shore counterparts. I don't think these English numpties will see quite as much dollar though. :D

Really, so we have got duplicates of all the crazy hair doo's and endless trips to the gym, tanning salon and laundrette? Or do the UK cast do their own washing.

Do they have little abbreviations like 'DTF'? and 'MVP'?

J4CKO 01 June 2011 12:56 PM

Oh great, more f*cktards on telly, thus influencing other f*cktards as to how to behave and what is acceptable.

Lol!

Well, if people seethem as role models, then there is no hope for them anyway!

Leslie 01 June 2011 03:34 PM

Can you understand them?

This is the problem with these programs. Many of the youngsters that watch this cobblers will see these people as role models - the very same people who see Katie Price as a role model.

My wife has a cousin who worships "The Pricey" - her very own words - she's a real life cringe fest! Being in the hair trade she has many of the WAG type wannabes in the salon.

The boys were doing the whole gym/tan thing in the first episode. It took a series of Jersey Shore for such colloquialisms to be established, so I'm sure they'll get there in Geordie shore too.

GlesgaKiss 01 June 2011 06:05 PM

For all the time they spend in the gym and preening themselves, they seemed to bring back complete munters. what's that all about?

I'm with the folk above who would watch stuff like this. It's good tv because you can laugh at how embarrassing it all is

StickyMicky 01 June 2011 07:31 PM

Never seen it, but if what the lads at work are saying is true, and only two of them are from an area remotely near to Newcastle, does that mean they all put on the geordie accent?

New_scooby_04 01 June 2011 07:35 PM

Why are we putting these egotistical, ill mannered, ignorant knobheads on a podium

And not shooting them?!?!?! :D

Do we really want to perpetuate this kind of thing by rewarding people for little more than behaving like a ****?!?!

Leslie 03 June 2011 02:43 PM

I quite like the Geordie accent anyway.

stevebt 03 June 2011 04:51 PM

I watched the 1st show and was laughing at the fact three of the girls slept with someone In the house, Give it a week or two and the arguments will be mint ;). The UK cast are not as nice a set of people as the USA cast IM0.
