my stupid day PLUS feeling about 'The Dancefloor' Programme

Well, let me just start on what had happened on Wednesday. I had an exam that day and it ended around 8pm. I though i could rush to watc'Dancefloor' at one of the coffee shops while having my dinner. BUT GUESS WHAT!? None of the coffee shops was showing channel 5! It was so infuriating! I couldn't understand why none of them wanna show 'dance floor' but some boring channel 8 programmes or movies from SCV instead.


This just makes me ponder about whether the dance floor programme is really well organised and properly planned, because it just seem that not much people knows about it or rather care about it. It is not gaining any recognition and popularity as compared to programmes like 'Singapore Idol', 'Superstar' etc. Although the subsequent seasons usually do not receive as much attention as the first season, you will still recognize and know the names of the idols...or at least the winners...isn't it??? Seems like there is not enough effort spent in promoting the show...hmm...cannot imagine how the 2nd season will be like... -_-


Eventually, I got no choice but to take a cab back to school and watch it using my laptop. It was already like 8.40. I called home and asked my brother who got eliminated in the end and I was so shocked that it was SFB!!! Though I didnt catch their performance, based on what Rebecca told mi and what I watch on the previews, I thought it was really one of the better ones. Well, guess it is all fate. But come to think of it....am I really surprised??? My answer is not really. From the very start, I kinda knew that this is not exactly a 'popularity contest'. Because you can be very popular and everyone likes you, but if no one wanna spend money to vote for ya, you will still be out of the competition. it is more of who are more willingly to fork out money to support their favourite group. Not to mention that definitely there will be groups voting for themselves also, just a matter of how much based on their financial ability (everyone does so, including ourselves...lolx). This is a problem that exists in the local TV reality show and yet to be addressed properly. Maybe I am wrong, but I think votings in American reality shows are actually free.


Enough said, so back to the 'bottom three issue'....really sad ya..to see the better groups to be at the bottom three. Well, all I can say is dun be surprised that it will be the same this coming week. Haha, I know it is a bit silly but anyone of you think that soul fusion being at the bottom three is actually pre-planned??? Otherwise, how can you explain the fact that there are so many people who like them and think they are good, and still they are at the bottom three. Or perhaps, it is just like what I mentioned above..hehe. And also there is a problem of soul fusion keep being at the bottom three and the judges saving them each and every week because it will discourage the public to spend money and vote for them since they know the judges will save them all the times and most importantly affect the morale of other competitors as they will unavoidably think that no matter how hard they work, the result is still the same as they are not appreciated as much as soul fusion. Anyway, I am quite confident that they will not be at the bottom three this coming wednesday, dun think they are so suay...so probably it will be JDI, Platinum and F4....why??? Cos they have been there b4 and it seems like they do not have not enough support as compared to the other groups like S & M, Vas & Pris and E square. ( For those who like JDI, F4 & Platinum...better vote!) There are times that these grps' performances are shaky and yet they have never been at the bottom three, so I am not surprised they will go all the way to the top 5, leaving the 2 spots to the remaining 4 grps to fight.

love,
