Clarified Mon 5th May 2008 12:59pm PDT by tisha[Admin]: These questions are only allowed if the Category Editor agrees to watch and count the number of times it is spoken on the show. Seeing as I was slow to get on this one and quite a few people have made predictions already, I will agree to watch and count the show to settle it.

tisha, you may turn of the telly as soon as the word is said once. I keep my fingers crossed to make it happen in the opening speeches.
are you the one to watch the eurovision song contest for this question http://www.hubdub.com/e/Market/_6024 ?
mork, I think compared to that show, you're not the one to apologize, hehe, do you know that contest?

For Tisha`s sake I hope Paula shows up hammered, and immediately says ``excuse me. I`m drink``

That show may be responsible for driving people to drink. Particularly men who failed to dominate control of the remote control.

lol

I've been watching the German Idol shows lately for the corresponding questions ... hrrrrrr
there was a female candidate (out two weeks ago) who was suspect to having consumed hash/weed behind the scenes of the show.
these suspicions were even stronger just because she has dutch parents.... such a prejudice, you know, the swiss are far more open to such stuff than dutch people are in fact....

About the only "reality" show I watch if you want to call it one is "Deadliest Catch". Haven't even watched "Survivor" since the first season.

Does the world really need another show about STD`s?

I have an idea for a new show called "What`s She On?"

@Mork - great idea... "What`s She On?" reality TV would provide an endless source of Hubdub questions!
