One of the best things about it was that 2 of them always picked on the other. How can they achieve that dynamic with 6 presenters? Also it was 2 and a half hetrosexual males (not that it mattered) who were anything but PC.
Now it's
black person - check.
Women - check.
yank - check.
ginga - check.
old man - check.
somebody who appeals to kids - check.

British Broadcasting Corporation + Political Correctness = Sh*t
This is what I figure.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

No, it's the reboot of "Friends"

I am noticing that more and more British chaps/chapettes are making it into American based tv and film entertainment (tv shows, night shows, etc.), and have been for some time. So it is only fair that we throw you the obligitory "yank". I mean come on, you guys gave us Piers Morgan, and you refused to take him back for sooooo long.

Why oh why didnt you just keep Piers Morgan , some things are just unforgivable . He is as welcome as Herpes . You have the guns , you have the nutters , god knows you dont need an excuse .What a missed opportunity. And killing Piers Morgan is countryside not murder anyway.

BBC is obsessed with being PC , to the detriment of its content .

BBC is obsessed with retaining its funding in the face of continual attacks from Governments of all persuasions as it naturally should be. If being pc is required to do so then they can hardly be blamed for that.
Having said that, I'm really not sure it's as bad as you make out. It's certainly not as blatant and intrusive about it as, say, Midsomer Murders (ITV) has been since that little faux pas[^] in 2011!

As a consumer I don't really care about why they do it , I only judge them on the quality of what they offer . And at the moment that's not as good as it should be in all areas . Whether its being PC or whether we are seeing a fall in standards due to 24 hour programmes I dont know , but I find BBC output less and less attractive ( online news being the exception)

A fall in standards or a fall in your tolerance levels? There is a well known association of dissatisfaction with television with increasing age (another symptom of Grumpy Old Man Syndrome combined with Nostalgic Inflation or Golden Age Thinking). Most studies suggest that television has not changed (for better or worse) to anything like the degree that those who complain about it changing believe it to have. What does change is the willingness to sit in front of whatever is on irrespective of quality.

Thats a possibility , I would not be aware of that if I have become less tolerant of crap .

As I understand it they're not all going to be in the studio at the same time. Actually I'm not sure that some of them will ever be in the studio.
As for the idea that 'the yank' is going to be PC, have you ever watched Episodes[^]

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I'm shopping for a monitor.
I noticed some great prices, then the reviews indicated that the monitor(s) in question did not have all the connectors, and required extra plugs and adapters.
So what am I looking for ?
What kind of buzzwords and acronyms and abbreviations are important today ?
Can someone point me to a useful webpage that has already answered these sorts of questions ?
For that matter, what questions do I want to ask ?
