On The Lot

[Magaman]

OK new favorite show, its like American Idol but with a Ryan Seacrest with TITS host.

Also fucking dumbass Kenny should have gone home, his movie SUCKED.

ANd gotta love the retards in movies!!!

[ginaf20697]

God ths is a trainwreck but the viewing options are limited so I'm sticking with it for now. Can't say how I'll feel if it's up against Big Brother though.

[highway23]

the host is just as (if not more) annoying that Ryan Seacrest...jesus she's horrible


there were some good vids, I hate they only get a minute, but it's pretty cool. I'm in.

She claps like a seal. I just want to throw her a fish. The videos will probably get longer once there are fewer people. I would hope so.

[highway23]

"Getta Room" was by far the best...

along with the lab movie...and the preview was fucking killer.

[ginaf20697]

More puking puppets more gooder.

[thekidslepthere]

"Getta Room" was by far the best...

along with the lab movie...and the preview was fucking killer.

"Getta Room" was great and the way they ripped that apart last night was fucking insulting, saying the guy seemed "mentally disabled".

Have they ever seen a Farrley brothers movie?

I'd rip the guy for ripping off Kip from Napolean Dynamite, but not because the actor seemed retarded in it.

The preview looked really good, but that wasn't the assignment, it's actually harder to tell a one minute movie with a beginning, middle, and end, in one minute, than doing a trailer and just having the best bits of a script he's probably already written.

I would rather deal with her since I just get lost looking at her boobies. But she does suck, I think as they get to a smaller group it will get better and the movies will be longer.

Ditto....the brawd is a looker but, holy fuck.........WORST HOST EVER!!!

Did you catch her cupping her ear every 2 minutes? The producer must have been telling her to STFU and move along in her ear piece.

[abudabit]

Fucking hollywood / tv patting themselves on the backs once again, self obsessed douches. Look at how many movies about film makers, actors, scripts, etc. there are. And they always get critical praise.

[WhiskeyWhispers]

I would rather deal with her since I just get lost looking at her boobies. But she does suck, I think as they get to a smaller group it will get better and the movies will be longer.

Yeah I spent the time the camera was on her deciding if her tits are real or fake... the jury is still out on that one.
I kind of feel bad for her, because you can tell she wants to be a sincere host, but she is really bad.
The show's first 2 episodes were ok, but I don't like the setup these past 2 eps have had, they are way too American Idol like.

[Simby19]

I feel like I missed an episode somewhere in there. They were assigned to work in a studio and make some 3 minute film which narrowed it down to 18 only we never saw that. Kind of weird. Seems like they're making it up as they go along or something.

[ginaf20697]

They ditched a few episodes I think. It's obvious Fox is going for a Family Guy strategy here.

[Simby19]

Or a 'The Winner' approach, since that seems to have disappeared as well.

[Sevenyars]

Me and my daughter said the same thing. I thought we just missed it.

[Simby19]

Me and my daughter said the same thing. I thought we just missed it.


Yeah I rewinded it to watch it again since they SHOWED a clip of one of the girls moving on to the final 18. I didn't think I missed an episode. As long as I'm not the only one out there questioning my sanity.

[ADD Theater]

I liked the first two episodes because they were more like Project Greenlight. I noticed we missed episode 3 as well. They must have retooled the show to be more like American Idol. I don't care for the new format at all.

[thekidslepthere]

Yeah...

FOX TRIMS 'ON THE LOT' TO ONE WEEKLY AIRING
By Brian Ford Sullivan (TFC)

LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- After another week of sagging ratings, FOX has dropped its Monday edition of "On the Lot."

The series will now condense its competition and results shows into one weekly one-hour program, airing Tuesdays at 8:00/7:00c starting June 5.

Said schedule will continue until its two-night finale airs on Monday, August 13 and Tuesday, August 14 (both at 8:00/7:00c). (The series will also have a special Monday, 8:00/7:00c airing on July 9 due to the network's coverage of the MLB All-Star Game on July 10.)

In its place on Mondays at 8:00/7:00c, FOX will run repeats of "House" and "Hell's Kitchen" on June 4 and June 11, respectively, while a mix of "The Simpsons," "American Dad" and "Family Guy" encores will fill the hour for the rest of the summer.

As a result of the change, FOX will shift "The Loop's" previously announced Tuesday airings (June 5 and June 12) to Sundays at 7:30/6:30c on June 24 and July 1. The news means that "The Loop" will air at 7:30/6:30c, 8:30/7:30c and 9:30/8:30c on said nights. (Regular 7:30/6:30c occupant "King of the Hill" then will move to 7:00/6:00c on those two nights.)

[Simby19]

did this host chick bathe in glitter?

[Sevenyars]

I liked the first two episodes because they were more like Project Greenlight. I noticed we missed episode 3 as well. They must have retooled the show to be more like American Idol. I don't care for the new format at all.

I thought it was the best thing on summer tv. After tonight I may be done. They took a good show and Earled all over it.

[Simby19]

Anyone else still watching? I read something in 'Entertainment Weekly' about how bad the ratings are. Apparently that's why they're kind of speeding up the process and editing out stuff (like when it inexplicably went from 25 to 18 contestants).

[highway23]

the host is what is bringing it down...and the whole "girl-power" thing

that last video "Dance with the Devil" has promise...

[Simby19]

I'm waiting to see the special effect dude's. I'm pretty unimpressed with tonights contestants

[highway23]

this show is really shitting the bed...

what the fuck did they just vote on?

and what about the rest of the people? I'm confused....

[Simby19]

It was down to 15 people, 5 were picked randomly last week and they showed their shorts then one got the boot tonight. 5 were picked out of the remaining 10 to show their's tonight; one will get the boot next week and the remaining 5 will show their stuff. It's quite the system.

[thelord68]

So they took what should have been one week and are stretching it out over three? What's the point if there aren't going to be weekly challenges for the contestants?

[highway23]

no shit, they're shitting the bed on this one...

almost pointless to watch

[highway23]

yes, it's on tonight

[Simby19]

yeah the last 5 show their shit tonight, including Zach who usually rocks

[highway23]

I was wondering what you would be watching tonight

[highway23]

this guy just made a peanut butter reference

"You can do anything with a little bit of peanut butter" - no shit, just ask EsD

[Simby19]

haha yeah I realized how much AFRO I listen to when I giggled at the peanut butter reference.

I thought the glass eye was a bit odd, but pretty creative.

[Simby19]

They seem to be changing the format weekly! Now they didn't even make the voting off suspenseful. Marty got the boot instantly.

[highway23]

it's almost like they're saying "Okay, let's get this over with..."

I thought it was pretty creative as well..better than all the other ones last week.

[Simby19]

Well, apparently the ratings are horrific so that's why an episode or 2 got cut. I was not impressed with this ghetta room kid.

[highway23]

did people just laugh?

[Simby19]

did they? I must have missed that. That was really odd and confusing.

[Simby19]

drama? I guess he's trying to change it up. Well crap.

[highway23]

yeah, seemed like a cool premise...but I don't see how he got it out

and the drive-by was just a dumb way to end it

[Simby19]

yeah he was going for a lot there and just didn't succeed. I think Gary Marshalls opinions blow, by the way. How useless.

[highway23]

he always has to say some stupid fucking quote

Craven's cool, and what's-her-name is so annoying

who chose these 2 losers to be judges anyway?

[Simby19]

Yeah Garry always makes some idiotic reference to some cheesy movie he made 30 years ago. I'm still not sure how Carrie Fisher is a legitimate judge. Obviously she is in the industry, but I thought she was just an actress?

[highway23]

anyone could have done this one...

boring

[Simby19]

is the black dude wearing blue contact lenses? I'm so distracted by whatever's going on in his eyeballs

[highway23]

I like the look of this one

[Simby19]

yeah another weird one

[Simby19]

ouch that was a bit harsh

[highway23]

too bad it really didn't have a point...

[Simby19]

yeah looks like she might get the boot.


Did you hear how they said half will do comedy and half horror? That hardly seems fair.

[highway23]

no kidding, at least give the poor bastards a choice...

or maybe they will switch the following week?

[Simby19]

I assumed the producers picked "randomly." I guess we shall see next week. I think they make it up as they go along.

[Sevenyars]

Yeah Garry always makes some idiotic reference to some cheesy movie he made 30 years ago. I'm still not sure how Carrie Fisher is a legitimate judge. Obviously she is in the industry, but I thought she was just an actress?


She has been given writing credits on many movies

[Simby19]

Aha. Touche.

[highway23]

not bad tonight...but nothing that really stands out

[Simby19]

Wow they are still changing around the format, huh? That was funny how they dumped the chick and moved on 5 seconds later.

Its still bogus to me how half did comedy and half do horror but ok. Still think they should just hand it to Zach and call it a day.
