John Campbell

[Stylo]

Struggling a little with why he's getting the push. Evidently due to falling ratings vs the likes of Seven sharp and other channels with 'humorous' entertainment programmes on the same time slot according to owners Media works.

Seven Sharp ? Give me a break.

It surprises me that anyone watches any of garbage on evening TV at all. Frankly I don't care. I don't care about Campbell, I don't care about 7 Sharp, and I don't care about watching the news that I already knew about 6 hours ago from the internet.

TV3 is the same as Campbell generally but without Campbell it was better than 7 Sharp happy happy look at me club.

my mum puts people into 3 categories, TV 1 watchers, TV 2 watchers and TV 3 watchers haha

[Trade_nancy]

Yeh..didn't like him...no loss to my viewing.

[JATZ]

To be replaced by...

Paul Henry??

[Waihou Thumper]

Don't New Zealand Television stations realise that we NZ'ers have access to the Internet and know the news hours before it actually gets reported...
Never liked the show, he is arrogant and tries too hard. Come to think of it, all of them are.....
Never watch then, far too much good information in other mediums.

Internet killed the TV star?

TV personalities are soulless corporate mouth pieces.

Too right, lost all respect for him when he was fawning all over David Bain when he was found "not guilty".

[R650R]

I'm long past watching these shows but never thought much of old Cauliflower ears... Mostly sensationalist tabloid style nonsense, got his arse handed to him in many an interview with Winston, even Herr Clarke whipped him, hard questions lol.... in recent years hes matured and done some ok stuff though.

Replacing with Jono and Ben just shows state of nations intelligence and the contempt they hold of our society.

[AllanB]

He used to be very good but has been slowly been morphing into a bumbling irrelevant impersonation of a later day Paul Holmes.

And is hair is dumb.

[Akzle]

i must be a rare breed. I dont give a fuck about 'news' till 6pm, when i LISTEN to it (on the wireless)


tbh. I dont give much of a fuck after i listen to it either.

'Tv' and 'personality' usually arent found in the same house.

[98tls]

Shortland street/Campbell livesame shit different time,both about as entertaining as a fly with no wings but i can fully understand why both are applauded by many in this country.

[jim.cox]

Broadcast television has become irrelevant.

It is oversaturated with advertising and the programming is utter crap.

Campbell is probably better than that wanker Hosking or the twat Henry - but I still would not waste my life with any of them.

Ignore them and they will go away (eventually)
