Well you had been a good friend when I was younger providing all the nourishment a child could want, morning cartoons then after school specials, grown up TV when I was home sick. I learn’t a lot from you, how to be cool from the Fonz, how alians from Ork really do have a wacky sense of humour how the war in Korea was fought in the army hospitals of MASH how to get out of sticky situations with only a rubberband and a hair product by Magyver how most other planets with life on them have breathable air like us from star Trek and how midgets are just plain awesome from some show anyway a lot was learnt and a lot of knowledge was passed my way.
So with all of that great history between us it is regrettable that the student must finaly part with his teacher. Some relationships the student will stay for a lifetime but then there are those relationships where quite clearly the teacher has been surpassed or more importantly proven to be the fraud that he quite possibly was all along. Yes my friends TV my friend my mentor and I are parting ways.
Was there a defining moment that brought me to this decision Yes, yes and yes I say to you 25/5/2010 the date that the final episode of ‘Lost’ was aired on Australian television the day that I knew my friend my mentor was nothing more than a fraud, Sunday school had warned me ‘beware of false profits’ but I took no head because hey I didn’t go to Sunday school I watched a program about a bunch of kids who did.
So after following one of the best written shows on TV for all it’s seasons you were given the opportunity to fully realise and end a show properly and what do you do, well in laymans terms you bent every loyal follower of the show over and F’d them in the A. that’s right people my mentor molested me with his stink arse ending. For those not farmiliar with the ending It was as simple as ‘everyone was dead in the end’ you MOTHERFUCKERS, you Paedo’s how could you betray us, all my loyalty I watched you on tele I was so into you I didn’t even download you and this is how you repay me, nay, US. Well I have taken a stand and won’t be letting such a betrayal ever happen again. bye TV, by Tina Fey, by Larry David good bye the cast of Entourage and hardest of all good bye Dex you with the all time greatest season ending ever (Season 4) you will be the hardest to say goodbye to.
Or rev wa that’s French for good bye yes another thing I learnt from you but it is with a tear in the eye I press the power button ‘OFF’.
