The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

I love the show and feel it's about time we gave it a bit of praise again.

So... I like stupid quizes

I like guests on the show

I don't like how this forum seems to turned into a moany bitch fest of daily mail proportions

It is simply the best thing on the radio. I think anybody who moans about it should listen to Capital Breakfast for a week and then you'll realise how great the show really is.

On the other hand if the critism is constructive then I can't see a problem with that.

I don't think anyone of the recent criticism has been constructive... Just bitchy

Me neither, no problem with reflecting over the break.

Be awful if we had to pretend to like all of it like what poor gregg does for radio 1 daily .

What a ludicrous thread. Most, if not all, of the criticism I have read has been constructive.

You know what, DevilsDuck, some of us like to give opinions and we like to give solutions as well. Not everything is great all of the time.

All of us here are fans of the show, none more so than me, but if opinions that you may feel are negative need to be said, then some of us will say them.

I agree with the Duck, bloody hell the end of the world is upon us ;)

If Nicola does a lot of maintenance here and is an ardent fan is she not entitled to give opinions or ask questions? Maintenance itself is needed for great things like this show all year round, doesn't matter whether you're big ben (not our ben) or blackpool tower.

Here's how it works:

Someone posts thread

People reply

Debate occurs

Random nonsense to finish the thread off nicely

Repeat..

I don't moan outright, I go with the flow, I find it interesting, always have, always will.

Its a GREAT SHOW, yeah? :)

I feel like I've contributed to the Moany quota recently , and for this I apologize.
I am a huge fan of Chris and the show . I'm 20 and I've listened to him since 1998 , so quite a big chunk of my life has been Moyles-filled.
I just feel the show has lost it's spark recently.
that is all.
maybe it's me that needs a holiday, not the team....

I love the show. The odd few who have come on here moaning recently only highlighing themselves as silly-billys.

"I don't like guests" is never followed up by "Maybe the other 99% of listeners (some 7,000,000+ people) like guests and this week of BBC radio production isn't aimed directly at me and just me" - as an example and not a direct attack on an individual.

The CMS is still easily the best show about, and the recent GJ cover by Chris highlighted that he can carry it off with changed circumstances and show format.

The futures bright, the futures less-'rolly polly'-than-before-Moyles.

I'll admit I'm disappointed at the lack of Tedious recently, but I did my best to consider it constructively rather than just whinge.

Can you imagine how much better a Chris & Dave podcast in the Ricky Gervais style, that was separate from the show would be? If they were freed from the R1 constraints, playlist & corporate bullshit that they have to suffer now.

I havent heard the Gervais podcast, but I would love to hear Chris and Dave with a bit more freedom.

Alright people, Duck has started this thread with the intention of it being positive, so let's try to be positive! I do still feel that TCMS is the best show on the radio, by a long chalk. I honestly don't know what I'll do when they finish.

Oh for ducks sake!

That's just silly, what are we trying to hide by deleting everything?

Pfft

Oh my GOD. I've deleted one post because the post it referred to has been moved and so it no longer made sense. What is wrong with you people?!

It gets confusing.

Forced positivity, brilliant aint it. The irony of positivity not being constructive! Reminds me of Facebook, I prefer the babble here if I'm honest.

What was that about turtles aswell? I liked that. Shouldve been moved here.

Keeping the positive theme going, think in years to come the current show will be looked back on as a golden era for Radio1. It's hard to imagine another show being allowed to be as unique as the CM show is currently, so we should just enjoy it while we can!

Yes its something that once its gone, nothing will ever be the same.

Long live this jewel in radio's crown.

Was listening to that 'lurgy' clip from 2004 and it seems Dom was still talking posh then, the way he says 'casualty', a frothy bevvy moment.

Most of the criticism recently hasn't been constructive! It's just been moaning about things that won't change. Contrary to popular belief, i am not against people having an opinion, just people who are moaning for the sake of if
