Could Malaysian television be more unoriginal? What is the whole idea of having a local version of Ashton Kucsher's Punk'd - inaptly named Wakenabeb on NTV7? It's just irritating in so many ways. From what I have read on a local online forum, the show sucks, big time! What's even worse is the "prank" is only shown during the last 15 minutes of the program. The first half is the rehersal of carrying out the prank on the unfortunate local celebrity. Why the fuck would the audience wanna see that? It just makes my blood boil that our local stations can't seem to come up with an original program, be it a reality shows, LIVE CHAT SHOWS, comedies or sitcoms that, by my definition does NOT make us want to hurl the remote towards the tv screen! Please. Why are we, the so-called next generation, being advised to be proud of our nation and culture and to not emulate the west when, in fact, they are doing the exact same thing on tv? AND poorly, for that matter. That's just sad.
