Loose Women

Remember that episode of the Simpsons when the the family got cable TV? Marge and Homer were arguing about it, until Homer persuaded his wife by showing her "The Estrogen network", which was a network just for women. As he flicks the channel, it shows a women's talk show called "Afternoon Yak". A woman in the audience stands up and says "Men" and everyone on the show boos loudly. Loose women is the equivalent to this. Take a group of women with about half a talent between them (who'd have thought speaking to camera was so difficult?) and let them try to speak about current affairs. One of the women is only on this program because she's Chris Evans's ex wife. Another used to be on Brookside, then went on Celebrity Big Brother and is now either a singer of TV host. Another was (I think) on Pebble Mill years ago. Funny thing is, I can't remember any of their names. If you make the mistake of turning on your TV when this show is on, do yourself a favour and watch the news on BBC1 instead. You'll learn something new rather than feel your brain turn to mush.

Literally 4 women, who happen to be absolute drips, sitting on a panel gossiping about absolutely nothing.

Any slight attempt at humour is met with hysterics and wooing from the audience.

Honestly, it's over the top drivel that baffles me as to how it's been on air for 20 years. Awful programme.

I absolutely hate this programme. This programme doesn't deserve even 2.6/10, it should be 0/10 because it is such a lame TV Programme. I'm not sexist but the adult female presenters and TV Audience act like little school girls. The way the adult female presenters and TV Audience react by wooing, laughing etc is just completely over the top and unnecessary. The female presenters and female audience are just complete idiots and their behaviour is so idiotic. It's a totally crap programme and I find it very boring. If an actor/Celebrity who I like such as Charlie Sheen etc appears as a guest on the show, I might watch part of it and listen to what that special celebrity guest who i really like has to say. Other than that I don't watch this crap TV Programme. My mum who is 77 loves (which i can understand) it but I hate it because it is so boring.

This programme is all about a bunch of women who cannot find anything better to do than gossip for an hour about nothing interesting at all.

The studio audience seem to have been pumped full of laughing gas as they explode into laughter when anyone says anything. Carol McGiffin who on one hand takes every opportunity to slag off her ex-husband (luckily 'ex' for him, Chris Evans) obviously forgets that the only reason anyone at all knows her from Adam is the fact that she was once married to the poor sod.

The rest of the show is a hotch potch of sad people who must thank God every morning there is someone crazy enough to pay them for this codswallop.

I have every respect for womanhood, but this part of it really does take the biscuit. Bad enough when the awful Kaye Adams (Surely 'Hayley' from Coronation Street's sister) was on it, it descended even further into the tripe stage with her departure (She's now taken to mentioning 'her baby' every five minutes when she guests on 'Countdown'). Awful over-the-top laughing at anything only slightly amusing, crap items about the 'ex' (incidentally, on that score, I agree with everyone who says McGiffin only got the job because of 'her' ex, Chris Evans) (wonder what took him so long?), wrinkles or 'the top I bought a Woolworth's' etc etc provides a dreadful hour on the telly. The programme makers ought to be ashamed of themselves, but of course even though it makes money for them, they probably can't stand it (Remember Gerald Ratner, anyone?)and head to the boozer whilst it's on. The quality dramas that used to be on in this slot with fine talent have been swapped for...this? I only gave it a 'one' because there isn't a minus - 1.
