‘As the Bird Turns,’ brought to you by Erdinger Alkoholfrei
February 27, 2011 | Rick Steelhammer A Canadian cable television provider has apparently listened to those of us who have said there’s nothing worth watching on the 300- plus channels of programming we routinely surf through in search of enlightenment or entertainment.
Unfortunately, the provider apparently didn’t realize we were complaining, instead of bragging, and launched a channel that will make QVC and The Golf Channel seem riveting.
Starting Monday, Canada’s largest cable provider, Rogers Cable Television, will debut The Rotisserie Channel, featuring 24-hour coverage of a dozen chickens roasting over an open flame. The show stars two rows of six spit-mounted birds steadily burning off fat as they spin in a constant loop in front of a video camera. It sounds like an infomercial for the Insanity workout, without all the swell music or testimonials. this web site insanity workout torrent
Swiss Chalet, a Canadian restaurant chain that not coincidentally features rotisserie chicken dinners, sponsors the show.
Any food show that doesn’t star an abusive chef or feature drama- enhanced competition among egocentric cooks could be refreshing.
But I’m not sure The Rotisserie Channel will make the big time – even if CBS options the rest of Charlie Sheen’s contract to the Canadian network for discount spit time and the show is renamed “Twelve and a Half Turkeys.” For one thing, all the show’s stars look the same to me, and do basically the same thing, day in and day out – but the same could be said for MTV’s Jersey Shore.
For another, there’s the name.
A program that gives you the bird on a 24/7 basis deserves a peppier handle than The Rotisserie Channel. But this is the cable provider that also features the Fireplace, Sunset and Aquarium channels, with nonstop action, or lack thereof, that matches their monikers. see here insanity workout torrent
Allow me to offer this north-of-the-border purveyor of PETA porn a few free suggestions for rebranding the new offering:
* KFC-Span * Baking Bad * Fryer’s Club Roast * As the Bird Turns * Burns Noticed *** In other international food and beverage news last week, a Bavarian brewery began marketing Gatorade with a head: Erdinger Alkoholfrei, a no-alcohol sold as a replenishing sport beverage. I’m looking forward to a sudsy Super Bowl XLVI Erdinger Alkoholfrei dousing of the winning coach, but I won’t hold my breath.
At one stage in my life, real beer was already a sport beverage, topping off post-run cool-down sessions, and keeping the electrolytes charged on fishing trips, so I can appreciate the marketing strategy. But I’ve deliberately lost contact with the beverage during the past couple of decades, and have become beer ignorant to an alarming degree.
When Yuengling started being sold here a couple of years ago, I had no idea, until its commercials were aired locally, that it was produced by America’s oldest brewery.
I thought it was Chinese.
So douse me with a barrel of sport beverage.
