I wonder who would be in the starring roles? 🤔

Jezza, Mr Q, Mr Man, Bomer, Lepatron, Armac, Commamder Slicer, Big Dan, NewsWorld, Kevin?

So many of the greats to choose from…

I’ve been lurking here for a few years now, back on the old forum I used to look at a lot of old posts. It’s a shame that not all can be seen now but it’s probably good as I would waste a lot of time.  
Whatever happened to Mr Q, TGIF and Cyril Washbrook? I always enjoyed their contributions.

Kevin was the member who left to launch Australian Media… he was in Perth I think but also spent time in the US.

The start of Australian Media was a time of high drama I seem to recall from my lurking days with some disaffected members defecting to the new site.

Does anyone still remember a particular member who’s disappeared from the forums in May this year. He was famous for his tantrums whenever Seven didn’t win against The Block and when Spartan failed against MAFS 🤔 😉

Wonder what he would’ve been thinking seeing shows like Dance Boss and Take Me Out flop…

@Mitchell_Nock - he still lurks here and there but hasn’t posted for a while. Wasn’t happy we put him in mod queue, which is his prerogative.

Not sure about anyone else here, but I haven’t heard anything from him since he blocked me on Twitter in July for posting a tweet here on Media Spy which had him whinging that WA missed out on a spot in this year’s House Rules Grand Finale!

From what I recall, he really liked Telethon (gushing about how they’re so much better than Nine because Seven raised $36 million last year) but somehow preferred Seven News Sydney!

Ahh yes, I’m surprised Antonio didn’t really make an appearance here a few months back during that short period Seven News Sydney were really starting to snap at Nine’s heels in the ratings!

All of that seems like a long time ago now. I’m still here but I just lurk now and let the kids play in peace.
