I was more annoyed with that stupid fashion thing they are doing this coming weekend. Just the premise of it is pretty stupid!
"Those are my shoes"
"No, they are mine, those are your shoes."
Had to resist the urge to throw the remote at the TV.

Yeah, that was awful. especially if they ran the two in succession.
The 4kids $4000 thing nearly made me insane!!
The shoe thing was pretty tame compared to actually watching the show. I still don't know how I was able to watch the show for it's entire season.

I was determind to find out why that show had an "EI" logo during the opening.
That means it's supposed to be educational. the only thing I learned is that I never shoudl have wasted my weekend watching that crap!!

It teaches you who's shoes are who's. And that that prince guy sounds like Yugi.

Sweepstakes serve two purposes.
1- cheap advertising.
I'm serious, the money they hand out is a LOT cheaper than some bigger advertising campaigns
2- Addresses!
this is why you should be weary whenever you enter ANY contest. This is how companies get your address to send you junk mail basically.
Though, considering that these contests are specifically for the underaged set. I'm not sure if they are allowed to give the addresses out to many groups (I think there has been a law or something recently.)

The mega moolah one...scared me.
Why...? Because it sounded like KAIBA was narrating! No, listen. Doesn't the announcer sound like Kaiba? Okay, maybe I'm too obsessed with Kaiba for my own good. But really, IT DOES SOUND LIKE KAIBA!!!!

Maybe because the announcer was Eric Stuart?
Sounded like him to me. Since it IS 4kids' TV block, they use their own voice actors in their commercials.

Yes, I know it was Eric Stuart, but he can make his voice sound like Brock and James and a bunch of other characters; he was specifically using his Kaiba voice in that commercial. It's kind of funny since Kaiba is really rich, and the commercial was a "mega moolah giveaway!" ^_^ Though Kaiba'd never give his money to a bunch of little 4Kids TV worshipping brats..
