Why is it all you have to do is make a ridiculous YouTube video and suddenly you have a development deal with a production company for a TV show?
Case in point -- this guy ...

You'll know Chris Crocker as the very passionate defender of Britney Spears.

Jen Jen (5:30 PM 9/21/2007): Well to be honest...I love this guy. He's for sure and entertainer...isn't that what TV is all about. He's a laid back honest and rightfully gay opinionistic comidian. Even though I am not gay and most people are not people can relate to the judgement and critisism he recieves. Point if you are dull and take yourself and life too seriously he's not for you. On the other hand if you like to get a good laugh at a silly gay guy he's for sure a hit.
gabby1 (6:51 PM 9/21/2007): Oh spare me!!!! This guy is not funny, he is pathetic. No, I am not gay-bashing. His so-called videos on incest with his brother and the stupid hate he spews on tape is a disgrace to the gay community. His fifteen minutes of fame should never have been.
Dee (7:38 PM 9/21/2007): Any idiot can have their own show.
Joseph (8:52 PM 9/21/2007): This makes me angry and sad with no socially acceptable outlet for my emotions...unless I make a YouTube video, I guess.
In all sincerity, I guess you can't really be disgusted with the guy for WANTING to be famous, or TRYING to get attention and be on TV...no, you can't blame him for trying, wether he deserves the opportunity or not. So I guess that just leaves the stupid production company willing to give him a deal for us to be upset with. Well, I won't be watching.
I'm sure there are plenty of gay actors and comedians out there who have been toiling away in obscurity for years, paying their dues, honing their craft...I'll wait for one of them.
Mikey (9:07 PM 9/21/2007): That is a guy. At first I just thought it was a coyote ugly bitch. Fucking loser. Faggot!
fykdig (11:22 PM 9/21/2007): silly faggot, dicks are for chicks!
eRIN (12:52 AM 9/22/2007): He reminds me of Chloe Sevigny, anybody else see it?
Dottie (5:16 AM 9/22/2007): Sorry, but this person is a little too gay, even for me. There are many gay actors and actresses who conduct themselves with pride and class. This guy has neither. His Britney video was ridiculous and not believable at all. I won't waste my time looking at his others. I equate his talent and the people who signed him to the people who signed the
"cavemen" to a series.
Are the tv folks getting THAT desperate? If so, STOP CANCELLING or sabotaging (by putting them in time slots where they don't have a chance)THE SHOWS WORTH WATCHING: THE SHIELD, THE WIRE, THE SOPRANOS, ETC.
Dottie (5:17 AM 9/22/2007): He is a Bobby Trendy wannabe.
DR TIM (9:49 AM 9/22/2007): That is a guy? Looks like Brad pit in DRAG.... no Brad would look better....How can you defend Britteny, Ritchie, Hilton, Lohan and that SLUT DRUGGIE group...spoiled rich girls...but the press....doenst leave them a lone for a second..and that could make them crazier...as in Britanys so called hit and run...fender tapping...I think the American PUBLIC is sick of hearing about them day after day..DOES ANYONE REALLY CARE? Or should we say, so people of tax paying age care?
DR TIM (9:52 AM 9/22/2007): Someone says that this guy is even too GAY FOR HIM... WELL i UNDERSTAND THAT STATEMENT.. n but outrageous poeple make the planet more interesting..take artists like Salvatore DALi, in his time, he was way over the top..but adds spice and flavor. Let everyone be who they want to be.Now MIKEY, anyone who screams faggot...usually is a closet queen themselves....Men who are confident in their sexuality...are not threatened by gay men, and therefore dont have to persecute them to look macho. So Miss MIKEY shut the f--k up, and for the guy, who says dicks are for chicks...DUDE, I am sure you take your own in hand and play..so you see, DIcks are for men too.
MEL (11:43 AM 9/22/2007): "I" INVENTED "QUEERS" JUST TO GET EVEN WITH GOD FOR
MAKEING ALL THE "SANE" HUMANS! "THANK YOU" SATAN.
Bilko (2:47 PM 9/22/2007): It's David Spade folks. No kidding. Not lying. For real.
psychosoulcial (6:39 PM 9/22/2007): i feel that this is part of the right-wing conspiracy movements attempt to use this gentleman as political fodder. his video, this television, and his persona celeb to crucify the gay movment. that is scary. when you share hate remember its you that you are hurting with awful, negative energy. just breathe...
harley (8:31 PM 9/22/2007): oh fuck thats a guy what the fucks this world comng to cant a guy have a hard on for someone thats a girl and not som fucking transvestite? thats why god made men men and woman woman so us horned up fucking men dont get trapped by some sick fuck like that. god damn they need to be locked up
harley (8:35 PM 9/22/2007): instead of shit like this and caveman quit cancilling shows like the oc which i really liked never watche dbefore till they started putting them on soapnet and i love the show its damn fucking shame they cancelled it. a lot of shows they cancelled that shouldnt been cancelled like angel
mikeyintheoc (9:19 PM 9/22/2007): The dude is a PIT STAIN.
lrns1226 (8:41 AM 9/23/2007): he needs one of those hormone patches to stop his moustache from growing. then he'd be really pretty. lol. seriously wtf is this guy thinking? what goes on in his flamboyantly sickening head? i dont care that you're gay, i just dont want it thrown in my face every 2 seconds. really. its disgusting.
cindy (9:03 AM 9/23/2007): Please tell me no real show will be made with this confused person someone needs to show him a man and a woman maybe he wouldn't be so confused
Apathy (9:04 AM 9/23/2007): I don't like where entertainment has gone either, but hey, give him his 15 minutes. Maybe he'll be exactly like Britney. Old news!!
