Rap is not my jam, however you all sound like my parents in the 60s about the Beatles.
Also I retired fron corrections and federal inmates wear kakhi and white t-shirts LMAO.

Please tell me what the intrinsic value of last night's Super Bowl halftime show was all about! Maybe I am old fashion, but it wasn't about the music, it was an XXX-rated sex orgy performed in front of millions of impressionable young men and women. (I am sure the dancers' parents and grandparents loved it!) If we continue to pride ourselves on such values, then we can only expect to live in such a world. Last night was a culmination of how our culture has lowered its morality for the sake of acceptance. No wonder our nation has sunk into this cesspool!

Not my type of entertainment- however - need to entertain others!!! How about a singer whose lyrics you can understand - are we getting too old?

Kept it clean? How could you tell? The vocals were unintelligible. Or……were you referring to their crotches? I think NOT! I’m guessing they all needed a shower because it looked like they had itchy genitals.

It’s so refreshing to see how open minded Villagers are. Good for you!

You didn't need "hundreds" of channels. You only need more than one or turn TV off and read a book or go for a walk. Don't understand why you posted this rant. If you didn't like the halftime show express why and than see if others agree or disagree.

It was totally reverse racial and the scene with all the dancers in prison uniforms was way too gangster for me.

As I write this, Good Morning America is falling over itself to tell us how wonderful the show was. So, it must be true :)

The real reason for the whole thing is to show diversity in the NFL etc......it's all about politics. Roger Cordell went for his half-time caviar and champagne and left the rest of us to it.

In the grand scheme nobody cares about our opinion as we are over the 60 year threshold. As I always say respond with the almighty dollar - don't watch it - don't support the advertisers etc.

Thankful for DVR!
 
We enjoyed some REAL music at the square while the game recorded. Then we watched the game (minus most of the commercials). We took a break as halftime began, and after the first couple minutes, fast forwarded through the rest. I respect that some people like RAP and Hip Hop, but please, don't call that music! There is no music nor intelligible lyrics. It is chanting at best, and usually littered with foul language and/or topics. And from the comments on here, the gestures must have been pretty disgusting, so I'm glad we didn't try to endure it! It WAS a good game though! (even though my team didn't win.)

such close minded people to not try to open their minds to something they are unfamiliar with. For all the previous years of the Super Bowl Halftime shows when there were OLD/Not current performers that many had to sit through and watch. Many dont fully understand the appeal to the younger generation.

It was the worst ever. I especially liked the dancers all dressed it kaki prison outfits with black sneakers. How fitting. Whole show was NFL and Corp America pandering to ___________. I happen to like Eminem and Mary J has talent. It just was a bad show and in the wrong venue and sent a bad message.

Crap

This was for the under 30 crowd, rather than McCartney or Rolling Stones for us. Next year go retro with bringing back "Up With People".

I purposely turned it off during half time and switched over to watch the WM Open finale(recorded). BTW, the show wasn't the only thing that sucked. The game itself was pretty pitiful?! Aside from some good defense, I don't recall seeing some of the worst offensive plays in a championship game like that? Oh, and I also remember the days when I looked forward to some of the funniest ads, only to discover that nostalgia, too, is gone! None of them were funny? NOTE: I still have the old Bud Lite ads recorded. Sad!

Gee, remember what your parents said about Elvis or The Rolling Stones? My 40 year daughter sang along , knew every word. Maybe some of you should watch Lawrence Welk on PBS to reminisce.
