This is a light hearted rant and isn't meant to be taken too seriousely. But it's a rant regardless.
Music channels eh? They piss me off. Sure they all tend to play exactly the same stuff as one another, repeatedly over and over again during the weeks, but occasionally they provide you with gems and at times you grow to love them. We've all felt angry with them at times and this rant is on behalf of the whole nation.

Kerrang and Q. You we're never all that great to begin with but as of late, your quality has sunken to new lows.
Tuning into Kerrang the other week expecting my eardrums to be blown away slightly (an exagerration I know), I discover for my viewing pleasure that they have provided me with... Monster Trucks.
WHAT.
THE.
HELL?
Why would I wish to view monster trucks on a channel designed for music? Hell, I like a wide variety of music; some of it very cheesey and Poppy, and some it very heavy and mad. It does not however make me want to don a cowboy hat, scream "Yeeehaw!", grab a cold beer and get me some hot burning carnage filled comical oversized manly wheeled action.
It's bad enough that you play Eminem and D12 on a channel dedicated to rock music, but MONSTER TRUCKS!? I worry about the mentality of you people, I really do.
*
Q, what the hell has happened to you? You've gone from credible indie, soft rock tune broadcasting to pervefest viewing to get your rocks off of day and night.
From 4 or 6pm till 6am your channel is dedicated to FHM.
Hell, I like nudity suggestive or otherwise as much as the next guy, but when I finally manage to get the living room remote for five minutes and find the usual suspects void of anything interesting, I want to grab some tunes. NOT be greated by J-Lo or Beyonce shaking her rump at me.

What the hell is this new found fascination with taking perfectly fine american tv shows and adding UK at the end? PLEASE!?
"Pimp my ride Uk" for example. I'm no big fan of cars but the original american equivelant helped waste a good half hour or so of boredom every now and then as it was fun and interesting. The Uk version makes my manbreasts hurt. It's just so... boring and british.
Watching a skinny, lanky moron with a god awful english accent wearing a leather trenchcoat, does not get my motor going. His attitude does not help him either. He's like the Fonze's geeky offspring.

"'eeeeey! Gonna fix up your ride homey!"
No. Go away and die somewhere. My retina is forever burned with the image of you holding your arms out, greeting folk like some wannabe gangster.
There's probably more stuff I'll want to add later, but my sarcasm gland is aching too much to continue.
