Mediacorp should make a TV series like 'Game of Thrones' with lots of intrigue, violence and nudity. That would give the local tv industry the shot in the arm it so desperately needs.

Charbor looked like your mom or sis going nude? No thank you.

With the growing popularity of the gay movement here, there might be many faggot sinkies who are interested to see some tcs actors naked with their dicks hanging out.

Won't sell. There are far more varied dicks and vaginas on the Internet. Mediacorpse won't even make it as a porn propaganda arm of the PAP.

The biggest problem with Mediacorp drama is their scripting hasn't caught up with times. Their plots and characterizations are often either too simplistic or aimless like those slices of life melodrama. In the 70s or early 80s where media entertainment was limited and general educational and metropolitan levels were low this might have worked, but to rehash the same sort of stuff for widely traveled inhabitants of a global cosmopolitan city with access to cable and internet just isn't going to work.

I often watch CNA for the local fiascos & scandals which are now very common in Spore. Whenever there is a station break they will publicise new programs. The problem is that although I'm watching an english channel they will advertise new shows that will appear in the malay, indian & chinese channels.

Spore has become a rojak society with people from india, PRC china, Philippines, the angmo countries, .... So how do you expect the 4 stations to serve a rojak society:confused: In Thailand & Indonesia where there is only one official language, there are many, many, ... channels.

The failure of mediacorpse is just another sign of the failure of the PAP " To build a democratic society, based on justice and equality, so as to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress for our nation.

Those are not actors or actresses. These people own self praise own self as superstar. They also served as pap puppet and can be called anytime to wayang here and there. In fact, mediacorp should closed shop, not just channel 8. There was no true debate against the govt, every level of the staffs there love self-censorship. News are not objective. We hardly see them reporting about how well the oppositions are doing on the ground. The reporters are all straight faced, faked journalist and full of craps. Nobody want to own TV nowadays.

Very few people watch Channel 8 these days. Confirm can close shop without Sheng Siong support.

Even the aunties and uncles are watching StarHub or mioTV, some even know how to use TV box and Kodi.

When the likes of mark Lee, vomit Singh, teeko jack Neo are your TOP tv stars. You know your tv industry is fucked. These losers won't be able to make it in any other countries tv not even Bhutan or North Korea.
And with foreign rejects like CYF it's bottom of the barrel stuff

If you've seen that Christopher Lee acting in Taiwanese tv drama and even in China tv drama and yet can't make it big, you know Mediacorpse is gonna close shop sooner or later.

Script, acting, directing, casting, sets, costumes all suck compared with the best from HK, Korean and Chinese (period) dramas.

Plus censorship is an unsurmountable problem: no premarital sex, no drugs, no gangs, no showing police officers or civil servants taking bribes, no criticism of govt policies ... what the fuck else material is there left to make a drama? Something along the lines of HK's Infernal Affairs (corrupt police) or Lord of Shanghai (triad activities) is definitely out, as is Korea's Gang Doctor (elitist and corrupt healthcare system).

Mediacorp 8 should just close shop.

I'm surprised mediacock even lasted this long,they should have gone out of business twenty years ago.iv seen more creative movie and television and game companies in America that have produced legendary and iconic works go out of business and this mediacock is still around.must be good when u are a monopoly GLC with no free market and no competition and singapore is a boring country with nowhere to go and nothing to do.

the media cock story is like a stale tampon, interference by fuckers who know nuts except to treat each drama as a business. TVB also went through such shit but now they are slowly stablising.
i was hearing a program that commented in US, their dramas have now cost more than movies to produce and the top notch producers have turned to producing dramas. here Media cock is still drowning in its own piss.

anyways, since the day they ban dialects, they have written their eulogy.

I know mediacock problem is a problem with state censorship and information control,alot of movies and TV shows in history is about breaking rules and conventional wisdom and challenging the establishment and status quo and introducing new ways of thinking and ideals.if Singaporeans start coming up with all kinds of elements and new fangled ideas it might wreck havoc on our communist government.

Last thing we need is v for vendetta or star wars or totally recall written by sinkies,and sinkies going around blowing government buildings up.
