If AGT was accross the street and free I still wouldn't go.

Howard said he won't shake hands with the fans only fistbump .....I hope nobody goes up to even shake his hand

**Guts83** · 03-19-2013, 07:53 PM

Wow. Just. Wow.

You guys are forgetting though. Its a slow build! You'll see! Everyone will come out in droves to watch the greatest television sh.... Yeah I can't even pretend to type that.

Here's a fun game: Let's guess how much lower the ratings are going to go down by. Before this announcement, I would guess 20%. Now? At least 40%

Alarm bells must be going off at NBC. Maybe they were too busy promoting "Whitney" to realize that AGT and most of the other reality-talent shows are dropping in the ratings as the "winners" go on to high-paying careers at the weekend parking lot street fair or performing at Las Vegas Night at the local synagogue. I believe that "The Voice" is doing well, but that's about it if compared to prior seasons.

I just wish there would be articles coming out about it....blaming him would be ideal...just SOMETHING that he could not spin.

I also hope this puts a huge dent in his future negotiating power....Mr I'll piss on my fans....bet he wishes a few more were supporting his stupid endeavors now. We'll just mever get the satisfaction of knowing.

I would bet if the ex-fans spat on him he would like that too.

I bet the Voice is doing well because they understood their target audience.....women! They got two hot, relevant guys as Judges....Adam Levine and Blake Shelton.....not a 60 year old Jewish Woman!

I lived in S.A. for years and still own a house out there. I'm actually sort of surprised they're this desperate since they're filming right off the River Walk and only a block or two from The Alamo. That area is one of (if not the #1) tourist destinations in all of Texas, and the theater they're in is adjacent to (or part of) the Gonzalez Convention Center. S.A. has a non-stop steady stream of conventions...that River Walk area is always teaming with people. On top of all that, the USAF conducts all its Basic Training (as well as a number of Tech Schools) about 10 miles away from downtown at Lackland...those kids, as well as the humongous military community (2 major AF bases, 1 Army post, plus smaller bases) are all within an EASY drive of this theater...fuck, normally military families could EASILY be counted on to show up en masse at these types of events in S.A.

If they're having trouble giving away free tickets to a network TV taping of a variety show in S.A., I guaran-fucking-te you there's a major, major problem.

There was ZERO promotion on Radio Tv for this shit. NBC is a slip shot operation if they can't get busloads of tourist to go to a taping or get some USAF connections to get trainees in the building. Hey, they hired HOWARD didn't they?

At this rate the fucking WNBA is going to have larger crowds than AGT.

I started watching it last year and loved the chemistry amongst judges. All looked like they were just having fun. No deranged Power of Howard types.....
