Susan Boyle should be the new ITV chief executive!

Yer, yer I said it, so what!

Susan Boyle + ITV = Success

I think Youtube sensation Susan Boyle should be the new executive chairman of ITV.

Susan Boyle was 'unearthed' by the wonderful Britain's got talent (a programme which incidentally makes my blood 'Boyle'). BGT is a typical crowd-pleasing entertainment show with no value other than to appease the brain-dead masses with predictable rubbish and is the type of programming ITV has become synonymous for in the past decade, contributing to its downfall.

ITV is currently in the brown-stuff with losses of £2.7 billion in its last financial year and with tough market conditions and advertising revenues dropping faster than Britney Spear's underwear its a bleak outlook for the broadcaster. Michael Grade the previous chairman was pushed aside and forced to resign earlier this week so a 'fresh face' could takeover and revitalise the organisation.
So what better face than Susan Boyle's to take over the reigns.
With ITV shares tumbling for years, Susan could be the thing to buck the trend. Her eccentric behaviour, lovable charm and appeal to the masses who created her can re-invigorate an ailing organisation. She can realign ITV's strategy to meet the new media needs of the 21st century and her links to the common man will aid her in the battle for ITV's survival by providing a platform of popular support. Other applicants for the job such as Sir Crispin Davies, Rupert Howell and Mark Byford to me just don't have the 'X-Factor' needed. There broadcasting experience and knowledge is pointless in comparison to SB's overall offerings to ITV.

I personally dislike ITV (as you may have gathered) because it has moved away from its core values of producing quality television and continues to churn out lacklustre, boring, unimaginative programming e.g.Dancing on Ice, the X-Factor , Im a celebrity GMOH, Ant & Dec's takeaway, Jeremy Kyle, This Morning, Bingo Night Live and Beat the star.
If you think any of the previous programmes represent good quality broadcasting then you are a moron, and have no conception of good television and are appeased by predictability, and blinded by dirty entertainment techniques that ITV have been employing. The only thing good about ITV's recent programing are Coronation Street and the Champions league coverage. The F1 coverage was also good but it has now gone to the BBC which is doing a better broadcasting job.

If you're thinking about putting a bet on Boyle to become chief executive of ITV the odds are around 5000/1 from Ladbrokes.

So ITV, stop procrastinating and appoint Susan Boyle immediately, as its the only sensible option left. Drastic times cause for drastic measures!

Summarising thought: ITV's is rubbish and Amanda Holden strikes a remarkable resemblance to a blow-up doll
