Age, competence and contribution...

Quite often, we watch entertainment shows on French television and we're generally shocked by the poor quality of the artists' performance. It's true that most productions are run by old folks (Michel Drucker and Patrick Sébastien) who haven't changed much in 30 years and should have long retired.

They're probably still hanging in there just because they still use lots of influence on the State-owned channels to stay as long as they can and can get away with sliding in mediocre products. The singers showed are as pathetic as their promoters.

One, that goes by the name of Gérard Lenorman is particularly terrible and he's often found in company of other lackluster artists. This is pretty bad, because it leads us to believe that all French artists are just terrible, which I suspect isn't the case...
