Why the Credit Crunch Hate? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

IffyPugNu · 06-13-2018, 06:08 PM

Why are you people so anal about credit crunches? Like that is the most autistic thing to be mad about. The end credits aren't even that important in the first place. And before you blame it on the young kids, you people probably didn't care about the end credits as kids either.

Because they usually impact the beginning of another show.

That and because hearing the end closing music is a big part of the whole show experience. Not having it ruins it for me.

Pretty rude post, on that original post. A lot of people like those old TVL themes.

What the heck is a TVL theme? Is that some sitcom message board lingo or something?

What experience? Are you really telling me you watch the end of a show and go, "Wow, that closing credits song sure changed my life!" **** outta here.

Sorry, meant TV themes.

I agree. The original poster here seems like a troll because he never posted anything here before this thread.

It is not a make or break factor for me.However of course I prefer seeing the full ending credits on a show .Even if just to know the name of a certain guest actor or actress.Or the copyright of the episode. Credit crunches used to be unheard of.Of course decades ago TV used to also be great and totally the opposite of the complete mess it turned into and is these days.

It doesn't really bother me if there are credit crunches but I do miss hearing certain shows closing theme song if it's a good catchy one.

As for the credits, seeing who a guest star was, not really a big deal cause I just google and check on IMDB to find out who they are.

So all in l credit crunches don't bother me but I guess given a choice I'd rather not have them but it doesn't impact f I will watch a certain show or channel because of it!

The biggest reason the nets "crunch" credits is so they can cram in more commercials.

Biggest reason? It's the only reason.

That’s so true. Its ridiculous that US shows can be seen uncut and no credit crunch on Canadian and UK stations but have lots of edits and credit crunches on American stations in their home country. It seems the only thing American TV corporations care about is the almighty dollar.

And after checking the original poster’s email address on his profile, I googled that website and found it to contain spam and one result says the site has been found in several abuse and malicious databases. He is most definitely a spammer and troller.
