Not in the slightest, all the contestants are just shit. The fact that Ireland's entry is Jedward proves that it's shit. Fucking Jedward! Only Iceland cares.
I'll watch it because it can be wonderfully surreal and funny, but do I care who wins? No. The only thing to stick around for after the singing is over is the relatively attractive voting announcers.
The sad thing is that Jedward is not even going to be shittiest thing at Eurovision, that is how far in the shit it is. I think the the entire contest was just invented so Europe could give Britain the finger for one of the many reasons they seem to have for hating us.ToTaL LoLiGe said:
I shall be instead watching England vs Norway, though I might switch over occasionally to take the piss out of the ridiculous amounts of political voting that goes on.
I always laugh at the former Yugoslavia states voting for each other despite all the wars and ethnic cleansing back in the 90s.Hazy992 said:

I always watch it (UK here), yes lots of countries are biased and the acts are often bizarre but it's good entertainment and the hosts are always a laugh. Can't wait to see some hilarious propaganda about the host country.
I loved towards the end where he was trying so hard to be professional but you could tell from the sound of his voice that he couldn't give a damn anymore.Hazy992 said:
The last time Eurovision was any good was the year that Lordi won it. Even so, I still watch it every year; sometimes there's one or two songs that are quite catchy. Like Moldova last year with the bizzare hats and woman on a unicycle (Moldova also introduced the world to Epic Sax Guy).
Not holding out much hope for Engelbert Humperdinck; we're on first I think, so we'll be forgotten about instantly.

It's all political, it's far too long, it's (in my opinion, boring) and although some of the music can be good it's not really what young people watch so I can definitely imagine it dieing out within the next 10-20 years.
Nope. Didn't know it was even on until I saw this thread actually. It was watchable when Terry Wogan was ripping the piss out of it while commentating but now I'd rather watch England get beat by Norway and Scotland obviously beating the US in the friendlies tonight =P
Of course not. It's not like I've ever been to a Eurovision party or anything... It's not like I'm really upset that I can't watch it tonight because our TV is fucked. It's not like the Eurovision is hours and hours of deliciously cheesy music, ridiculous choreography and outrageously shiny outfits, all narrated by the lovely Marty Whealan.
Why would I care about that?

Wasn't that the first Eurovision? Or one of the first maybe. Dunno.Sara Fontaine said:
I haven't cared about it since about 10 minutes after I first heard of it. I know about Lordi because there were tons of people talking about them...and that's it. I cannot name any other people who've been there, nor songs from there. Not even from representatives of my country.
