The forum is descending into people deflecting any valid criticism of the rebrand with “The public won’t notice!”…

They realise they’re on a forum about TV presentation, right? Like it annoys me when people are overly petty about something but when it’s valid criticism it’s just… odd.

Of course most people aren’t going to notice - but most people aren’t on a forum about discussing and dissecting TV idents either…

There has certainly been an increase in 'most people won't notice/care' or 'it's just a font, etc.' attitudes in the last year and you do, as you say, just want to reply 'then what the fuck are we doing here'.

I would love to just say that! I feel like I have to go into the most inept detailed descriptions to make sure nothing ever gets misinterpreted on there, either.

Did accidentally derail the BBC One thread a little today though - Apologies. Stuck a question on one of my replies and wholeheartedly thought it would be a case of one person just replying and answering with “Oh, it’s X because of Y” without disrupting anything and that would be done with it, didn’t expect there to be multiple people suddenly curious what I was on about. Expecting some snark for it over there.

Either we're into new levels of diversity and they're totally genuine or I think we've got a troll masquarading as a TV pres geek or they're legit and not that self aware. I have an overwhelming temptation to reply with 'How dare you assume my gender identity and sexuality'...

Other posts include a petition for ITVbe to change their idents.

I think everyone will agree that Alan Robson was the first on TVL/TVLF to be openly "T".

I had to look up what abrosexual meant and that was only the beginning of the rabbit hole.

The arena thread is like a breath of fresh air, although that may have something to do with the number of blue names posting in that thread.

I'm pretty sure Brekkie just sits there all day waiting to be offended over something.......
