Pretty much every Chinese person I talk to agrees that it gets worse every year, ever reaching new depths of raw bore-power. Yet most Chinese households tune in faithfully every year.

But hopefully this year’s marks the beginning of a new era of shows that are enjoyable to watch. It was obvious they pulled out many of the more boring hosts and pulled in many more interesting stars. But that didn’t make any of the other smaller ‘spectaculars’ we sat through any more interesting.

I tuned in a little all the way from America and found the one that I saw to be interesting at least. I can see sensitivity training in your future, Dude!
