So what of 2022?
The final, sad and inevitable end of S66 as a TV nightshow presence.
The decline was a slow and painful death and one that was very much self inflicted.
A channel that as Elite TV was the innovator to beat them all.
It always had a tendency to take a dog eat dog and grass up the opposition mentality that little bit too far.
Eventually realisation dawned that strategy wasn't really working so what do S66 do. That's right they eat themselves alive instead
.
The ever increasing exodus of many big hitters either to retirement or opposition channels failed to deter S66 from increasing its deluded, misguided, intransigent capacity to strangle the life out of itself.
It became as tragic as it was comical.
The end came far far far too late such was the extent of terminal misery the channel had inflicted on itself.
This channel had so much opportunity to make good on a series of top quality babes but somehow contrived to make the messiest of dogs breakfasts of the whole damned thing to a point where Snooks's eye rolling became so severe he may have been capable of winning a World Championship in such a skill
.
The best of this channel was arguably the best of all time.
The worst saw it's ultimate and deserved demise.
Shame.
So it was left to BS and Xpanded to do battle.
But in truth it has never really felt like a battle.
The two channels do not appear to be trying to necessarily achieve the same things. Very much approaching it from different angles and arguably not really fighting with each other.
BS with all its gimmicks, money making initiatives, call modes, privates Dee dah Dee dah Dee dah.
Xpanded with errrrrr, well errrrr a series of babes doing relatively old fashioned non nude nightshows more often than not on a bed and somehow often making the supposed big hitter brother look a little ordinary perhaps more regularly than it should.
Vibratoy v Bed Set. Which can irritate Snooks the most?
That perhaps would have been a past bone of contention.
Not so much now. An acceptance of those things has taken hold.
Now it's become a case of who can utilise the tools at ones disposal the best?
Or even better.......
Who can generate something out of almost nothing?
Who can be the least contrived?
Who can be the most convincing?
BS wins out sometimes. XP wins out at other times.
Honesty of endeavour still consumes my thinking.
The culture of BS makes honesty of endeavour a harder principle to live by there than it would appear in the uncomplicated arena of XP.
But some BS babes still defy the odds and manage reasonably well.
The nature of nightshow competition is not what it once was.
The playing field vastly different too.
Heaven knows what it will all look like by this time in 2023.
