Ryan frickin' Seacrest

I am very dissappointed in E! for installing Ryan Seacreast as their daily e! news person, and for allowing him to disgrace the red carpet at the different awards pre-shows. I cannot stand the man. He acts so arrogant, would plug American Idol while talking to celebs on the red carpet, or just downright insult them (as he did to Jamie Lee Curtis). Watching him attempt to boost his masculinity (or at least convince himself) is pretty funny (he usually would do this after Issac had done something only a gay guy can get away with). Whoever thought hiring him would bring E!'s rating up...bad, bad idea. It made me want to change the channel.

Am I the only one who likes him?

Not my screename, my real name...although Link Frickin'Larkin DOES have a nice ring to it.

Yes.

Do you also like Chicken Little from Idol?

This BSoBW2 thing is creeping me out...

Akiva, I think I want to go by "You want it Frickin When?"

Sounds like a plan.

What's creepy?

[JACXR71]

Posted: 3/16/06 at 11:27pm

Well, not so much creepy I guess. Just strange...it's like, the old you taking over the new you. Or, me having cabin fever and not making any sense. Either one...

Go into the light, Jacx.

Just don't turn into John Cusack in a bad horror film please.

It has been a weird enough day.

Haha - I'll try my best. Though some people do say I look like John Cusack. I don't see it, though.

I at least like him way better than that Isaac guy. He embarasses himself and all the celebrities. He gets on my last nerve.

I don't care that they hired him for E!, I just hate that they made a HUGE deal about it. Commercials every 5 minutes for his "arrival" and sh**. At least Kathy Griffin has a year's worth of new material regarding her being replaced by that talentless Ken doll.

Hell, this is "E", not hardcore journalism. Seacrest is perfect for the job.

Never fear, Jane! I'm here.

I actually don't have a problem with people irrationally hating him. There are many that I irrationally hate.

I just don't get the 'joke' aspect. He is a television/music personality, much like Dick Clark. That's his talent. And I think he does it well (though he does irritate the f*ck out of me...but that's just my baggage). I just don't find him to be a joke in the way, say, Tom Cruise is a joke. Seacrest ain't prescribing medical advice and he's not purporting to be a talented actor. He seems to know his place and purpose in the entertainment industry and does that well...and happens to get paid mightily for it.

Good to see ya Robbie. I"m trying to think of why he's a joke. I think it's because everywhere I go, people are laughing at him, whether it's at work, or on line, or on tv-they're always making fun of him. I don't care that much though, it's just idle gossiping.

Posted: 3/17/06 at 11:43am

I missed the thing with Jamie Lee. Can someone fill me in?

Even though Ryan is not my favorite person out there, he's a helluva lot better than Isaac.

Whatever happened to Steve Kmetko?

[Jane2]

Posted: 3/17/06 at 1:12pm

I was giving this some thought. I don't think Seacrest has what Dick Clark did. I just don't see much of a personality nor anything else to warrant the big bucks. Obviously many others do, though.
