Nw Yr’s Rckn’ EVE

Posted on 28 December 2009 by Alex Grubard

Hello everyone out there in TV outlandishness,

Well, it’s almost over. The decade is about to finish up and people seem to be somewhat indifferent about it. Makes sense since everyone knows the world is ending in two years anyway.

Every year in Times Square, New York City some teenager’s balls drop and everyone gathers around to see. It’s an impressive sight live in the freezing cold, I’m sure, but I’ve always caught the last two minutes of the year on television surrounded by friends and drunkards at a house party. I’m sure most of us usually witness the event live on television watching “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” often hosted by, I’m pretty sure, Dean Martin.

This year (2010 the year of someone’s lord) DCNYRE will be hosted by a slew of stars: Dick Clark, Ryan Seacrest and Fergie. That’s really great for them, because what else can they possibly do? I would only watch the three of them if they were the only people hosting an event that is as unavoidable as time itself.

Jennifer Lopez and Daughtry are going to perform live in Times Square. Out of the 1,000,000 people in attendance I can only think of two people that will be interested in their performances: J-Lo and Daughtry.

American Idol participant Adam Lambert says he was booked, but was bumped for previous televised performances that were too “controversial” (see: gay).

This will also be the first year where there will be taped musical performances from Las Vegas, which is what Fergie will be hosting. Thankfully she will not be singing.

The only worse than watching New Year’s on ABC this year would probably be watching it on MTV. They’ll probably just play a marathon of Jersey Shore anyway.

Happy new year/decade! This is going to be the one!
