Do not hate the Player

[wmesser58]

Om,

You have no time for the haters. I watched all three episodes and there is nothing wrong with you or Joyce.

You have great chemistry. You and I will never bee cool now that we are older than the targeted audience I suppose but I bet they do not subscribe to Revision3.

Not that, that matters but the reason I like you is you will tell the truth and say what is on your mind.

Anyway I do not want your head to swell any bigger than it is so keep up the good work and stop listening to the nay sayers.

Respectfully,
Wayne

Not everyone on the forums at Rev3 is under the legal drinking age.

There are a number of COGs (cranky old geeks) on the boards ... and I think WE are the target audience for this show. Others will grow into it ... they just need to grow up a little and realise that there is more to the world of IT than what is coming out of Cupertino (OMG!!!!!1!!!1!11!11 I <3 STEVE JOBZ. MICRO$UXORZ. LOL :rolleyes:) and the latest Ubuntu or Firefox prealpha build notice.

A mature, business focused tech show is a welcome addition.

Hey, I'm a whipper snapper and I love the show!

Hey, I'm a whipper snapper and I love the show!Yes ... and what is the legal drinking age in T&T??

I still maintain that there is a correlation between maturity and legal drinking age :)

I think it will be good for the young'nes to learn how to appreciate someone who sounds different than them. Om is smart and funny. Joyce is smart and funny. They're smart and funny together.

I really like the way OM doesn't pander to his guests.

I'm a whipper snapper too and I love the show (and the drinking age is 21 here in Maryland)! Om, you rock!

That's interesting. I've found it to be completely opposite. I find that Om get's caught still thinking of something while it's coming out and doesn't always make sense, at that time. Mostly the inside jokes that are annoying.

I don't find that him and Joyce have almost any chemistry but more that she's there to "balance" the show as just another person to fill the body void. I find that there's not really any real communication between the two of them but more just dialog that's been written on paper to slew their lines from.

BUT, good news, it's getting better. I think the main problem is for Om to relax a little more on camera and enunciate.

I'm really trying to like the show, but I can't seem to get into it. I like the format. I don't like that Joyce sits right next to the guest. Joyce and Om should be sitting next to each other.

Have fun people, I'm jumping off this one, see yeah in the TRS forums.

Yeah, because all of us under 18s are just so damn racist. :rolleyes:

Why does everyone associate Om with his accent? He seems (By that I mean I've never seen him in anything other than this show) to be extremely smart, and him and Joyce both seem to be very business savvy.

Why does everyone associate Om with his accent?They don't, but that appears to be where most of the criticism is coming from - and whether real or perceived, those leveling the criticism appear to be of the younger demographic of Rev3 viewers.He seems (By that I mean I've never seen him in anything other than this show) to be extremely smart, and him and Joyce both seem to be very business savvy.This is right on th emoney - Om *IS* extremely smart, and his incite into the IT industry is broad, deep, and intensely savvy.

I think the number 18 is a significant factor towards the criticism of Om's accent. Not so much when referring to age, more so towards IQ...
