Few days ago Tauseeq Haider interviewed Dr. Enver Sajjad. As is Dr. Enver's usual demeanor--irresistible! You have to listen to the man. The man talks and talks sense. He says things the way they are. No fluff. No sugar coating. The plain, cold, simple truth. And so it came as no surprise when he just slammed the facts on the table and said "....there are only 2 'species' that are rapidly becoming popular these days: actors and anchors. No one remembers the writers and directors any more."

It got me thinking about these anchors he was referring to. And the ones that immediately came to mind were the annoying ones. The ones I watch on TV and wonder how big of a safarish they must have paid to be where they are now. They have no talent whatsoever....no skill of their craft....and except for one qualification: talking (read "talking total bs")---it seems based solely on that and the fact they pulled some major strings to get where they are......hence it had to be a safarish.

1. Ayesha Sana: Please for the love of god, get your nasal problem fixed and stop snorting back your post-nasal drip when you talk to your guests.

2. Shaista Wahidi: Lady, kissing a snake on its mouth on live tv isn't gonna boost your ratings. And please learn to sit!

3. VJ Waqar: You're a wanna-be. Your "ideas" for different shows aren't really worth watching. And by the way, the long hair doesn't do much for you either. Basically the guy tries to make his idiocy under the spotlight appealing. So far, it hasn't worked. Not everyone is Letterman.

4. Some VJ on ATV: Don't know the dude's name...but god he sucks at hosting a show!!! Rarely has a clue as to what he wants to say. And after being on the show pretty much EVERYDAY--still hasn't learned which camera to look into.

5. Sahir Lodhi: I want to like you.....but just can't bring myself to it. You seem to have a good sense of perspective...but then sometimes you say things that make me wonder if the wheels really are turning. I'll give you this much, you're slightly better than your sister. But if you wouldn't try so hard, you might be more pleasant to watch.

6. Hamid Mir: Can't waste my time.

7. Farah Hussain: She's the cold statue that talks for 2 hrs straight in the morning. May be if she brought some human expression and emotion, she would look.......ummm...........human!?

8. Abeel Jawed: Desi blonde.

9. Mubashir Lucman: You not only try too hard, but you also aren't as intelligent as you want your viewers to believe.
