Shafted

[The Hitman]

Just saw Red Symons and that new show, called Shafted. Biggest load of sh*t on TV since Talking Telephone Numbers.

Just really bad, Red Symons tries too hard, and the set is dodgy, the production is shoddy, and the the whole set-up is just bad.

Seen it, thoughts?

It can't have been worse than the fugitive show they had on sunday night. It was AWFUL.

Don't Forget Your Toothbrush. If Shafted is worse than that rubbish it is an injustice to Channel 9. I feel sorry for them.....

I like it. Different. Entertaining. Challenging. Intellectual.

It's better than Burgo's new show.

Is it true that music in the background on the ads for that show is actually from 'THE SAINT' ?

Now you know why SHAFTED was axed in England after only 3 episodes.

God, you brought back some memories by mentioning that show.

By the way, it's interesting how so many of today's "modern" game shows seem to emphasise more then ever the concept of contestants backstabbing each other, acting selfishly and getting the chance of kicking other contestants off the show. Not only that, (from what I saw) 'Shafted' also takes the concept of winner takes all literaly.

A sign of the times I guess.

What a load of crap... 2 minutes was enough for me!!

I turned on to watch Everybody Loves Raymond, a brand new series on channel 10.

I did hear about that.
A bit of an embarrassing start then.

I watched it, didn't like it much.
But...remember folks...

If they axe Shafted, expect to see BORE of the Century back on at its 7pm slot.

Heyyyyyyyyyy! I actually liked DFYT! And it only got axed because it cost Nein a packet to produce. Shafted will get axed as a public service.

i havent seen this new show. i reckon the crappest show ive seen was that ridiculous BOOTCAMP, what a load of sh1te.

Shafted is an appropriate title-I felt shafted after watching 5 minutes of this drivel. Could anyone explain the rules? They seemed to make them up as they went along.

I give it 5 weeks.

The Herald Sun today says that Shafted could be axed next week. You might be right Rusty!

Good get rid of the bloody thing. There is enough 'shafting' that happens in real life, do we need to encourage it? I'd rather see a quiz show that you win by being knowledgable, not on your ability to be a shifty bastard.

Personally I'd rather have some integrity, winning the relatively small amount of money is not worth advertising to the whole country that you are an untrustworthy backstabber.

I know some of you think Sale was boring, personally I like it, far less boring and frustrating that Millionaire. I would be interested to see Sale's ratings in comparison to Shafted. Bring it back.

Plus I am due to appear on it.
