Title: Ryan Seacrest
Post by: dheine1971 on January 20, 2004, 09:20:47 AM
Are there any fans of Ryan Seacrest, who in the 1990's hosted kid aimed game shows - "Gladiators 2000", "Wild Animal Games", and "Click". And currently hosts "American Idol" and most recently replaced Casey Kasem as host of the radio show "American Top 40" (and most recently revamped it with an all request show not following charts from R&R or Mediabase - almost like the way Shadoe Stevens killed off the old AT40 from 1991-1995 when he withdrew the Top 40 from the Billboard Hot 100 due to sales only rap and heavy metal singles songs making the Top 40 and first switching over to the Top 40 from Billboard's Radio Monitor with a couple songs mostly rap/R&B/dance that only got played in NYC, Chicago, and Los Angelse, and then switching over to the Top 40/Mainstream chart for the last 2 years of the old AT40)

Can you ask a simple question without erupting into verbal diarrhea?

Honestly..I'm not trying to sound nasty but on your last go-around here, we called you on it, and you took your toys and left.

If you keep doing it, we'll keep calling you on it.

Quite honestly, no. I can't stand the guy.

And I agree with Aaron 110% on this, is your only need to post when you have new fandom for a person, or when a brand name isn't mentioned on TPiR? (Referring to another board).

Oh well... <sigh>

 And in turn, I agree with Nicholas...

And I'm not saying that every time you post, it's garbage...Your thread you started on GS personalities doing voiceover work on cartoons is very interesting..

You just need to stop slapping comments within comments within comments inside questions, that's what I mean by "verbal diarrhea". It makes your posts very, very hard to comprehend.

There wasn't even a question mark in that "question".

But to answer it anyhow: Yes, I imagine there ARE fans of Ryan Seacrest.

Well, maybe he thought we'd confuse him with another Ryan Seacrest who hosted kid-aimed game shows - "Gladiators 2000", "Wild Animal Games", and "Click".

By the way, are there any Kid Rock-aimed game shows? Maybe there was a show titled "Drink Beer and Scream?" I'd probably watch that, at least once.

 Shadoe didn't set policy. He was just a performer who showed up, read his lines and cashed his big fat check. The format putzing was the doing of ABC.

I honestly don't understand either, but then again, when I see stuff like this coming from him (from another GS-related message board):

--
First time the Smart Grip Squeegee (Are my eyes playing me or did they use a larger one this time?) was in TPIR's Grocery Game, but I hid my eyes mostly since I wouldn't find out if they have or have not used yet the current look (Maxwell House) Decaffinated Coffee instead of old packaging.
--

I honestly don't think I wanna know what's going on in that mind of his...

 It happens ALL. THE. TIME.

In fact, as a rule, when a user decides to publically "take his toys and leave", as Aaron so succinctly put it, the timestamp of that message marks the Official Start of a 24-hour wagering period as to when that user will come slinking back. Just pick your time, closest guess without going over is the big winner.

 I think this machine for this lottery is broken.  I asked for a QuikPik and it gave me a ticket marked February 30th.  #$*(%@*?!#&^$!

 I spoke to the people who provide that machine; they said that a new one will be arriving January 32nd. :)

I believe AT40 still follows some sort of chart - be it R&R, MediaBase, etc. I'll check on this when I'm at work next (since I run the AT40 countdown and I do have to pay attention once in a while!) They still do countdown from #40 to #1, except it's by a lot more sound effects and less Ryan.

Let's not forget, his new talk show debuted last week.

In addition, he hosted the kids' version of American Idol called "American Juniors."

Josh would be right.  I was listening to AT40 the other day, and Ryan said during the closing credits that the show uses Mediabase 24/7 as its chart source.
