Just found this subreddit - Whats with all the hate for the show?
5 2015-02-19 by [deleted]
Long time listener, however I only just discovered this subreddit today. It appears this is not the right place for people who enjoy the show?
What with all the hate? (Not saying this in a negative way, I just feel like I am missing something and really want to know)

Opie sucks on multiple levels.
His personality sucks.
His sense of humor sucks.
His lying sucks.
His exaggerations suck.
His fake voice sucks.
His making every story about him sucks.
His storytelling sucks.
His name sucks.
His mannerisms suck.
Him acting like Florentine or any of his other idols sucks.
His shouting over people suck.
His viral addiction sucks.
His 73 IQ sucks.
His youtube videos suck.

Despite being only peripherally related to the show, I feel it's necessary to mention that Joe DeRosa uses "comedy tours" to mask the numerous minorities he has murdered and strewn about the countryside. The man is a monster.

How does this get downvoted? I get that it's running it's course, but this one got me.
3 Djs3634 2015-02-19
Bravo dude that was fuckin funny!
4 zersch 2015-02-19
His tits rule tho.

TIL: /u/opiesucks real user name.

Get out while you still can.

Point taken, apparently I enjoy a show that these people hate. I miss Ant too but I am not about to kick puppies and burn down a village over him getting himself fired. I will try and subscribe to Ant's new radio show.

This subreddit consists of a few hundred people who loved the show ten years ago but hate it now, and don't listen to it. There's also a few dozen people who still listen, but 80% of them wish they didn't.
And then there's a handful of people that actually like the show, but everytime they say so they get drowned out by the majority (who hate the show.)
TLDR: Most of the people here hate the show.

Did you miss Anthony leaving the show and any semblance of humor leaving shortly thereafter?
Did you miss the two-bit fraud Greggshells destroy all of Jimmy's characters, any chemistry in the room and trample over things?
Did you see this same two-bit big boobed dullard lie about what happen with Anthony's departure?
Yeah you've got a bit yet to catch up on.
2 Popkorn 2015-02-19
How is Anthony's new show? Worth subscribing for?
6 BigDummy666 2015-02-19
if this isn't worth 6.95 I don't know what is http://i.imgur.com/Wc3bylB.jpg
5 knitro 2015-02-19
some say yes, some say no.
I think the big difference is Anthony is willing to listen and try to do new things - jellychest thinks he's doing everything perfectly.
4 ratheryounotknow 2015-02-19
Lol @ jelly chest.. Best rephrasing of fat tits opie yet.
2 breadmoccasin 2015-02-19
Anthony was talking today about how TBS is speeding up Seinfeld reruns, and he made the joke that they were basically "yada yada"-ing entire Seinfeld episodes. Goofy jokes like that are basically what I enjoyed most about O&A. Not fucking naked girls and interns shitting.
5 monkdick 2015-02-19
Yes.
4 michaelcolestie 2015-02-19
Ant produces s quality show with consistent laughs. Worth it
4 iAmJacksR3venge 2015-02-19
Yes it is.
1 ZaZaFrunkissss 2015-02-19
Yes. Highly recommended.
-4 PresidentJonStewart 2015-02-19
No but it's worth pirating when he has a funny guest on.
-5 benjamin72 2015-02-19
lol
8 Z-Tay 2015-02-19
This sub is for fans of O&A.
This new show, OpieRaqio with Jim Norton, fucking stinks and you're not welcome here.
7 wizardnug 2015-02-19
the new show is shit. everyone i know has stopped listening. i still check in a few times a week to see if its still as awful as its been since ant left, and yes it is.
7 erockarmy1 2015-02-19
There is no site for people who enjoy the show. It doesn't exist. Not even in fantasyland.
5 breadmoccasin 2015-02-19
"The show", Opie and Anthony, is dead. This subreddit is simply Jocktobering this new "Opie with Jim Norton" show on OpieRadio on SiriusXM. To call THAT show, "The show", is an insult to what I used to laugh at. Thank you.
4 JayEtheridge 2015-02-19
I still listen according to the guest. The new show just isn't a must listen like O&A was.
3 astrozombie222 2015-02-19
WELCOME ABOARD POPKORN!
2 pervyjeffo 2015-02-19
I don't hate the show. I don't like Jimmy, and I hate Opie, but I like lots of the guests and that androgynous mulatto Sam is starting to grow on me, when he takes shots at flappy tits. Who never notices.
1 tharida 2015-02-19
Because opie is a dumb motherfucker who just let word get out that he bought a 6.85 million $ home after selling out his long time partner for money...
1 holodog 2015-02-19
It passes the time.
0 MacsDuster 2015-02-19
The subreddit is full of people who take the tiniest thing opie says/does and finds some inane reason for hating him. 'Listen to this one sentence Opie said 10 years ago. What a fat-titted, jerkoff...' It doesn't get much more interesting than that.
0 marsgamingchannel 2015-02-19
learn to read. then read the sub. it's spelled out pretty well with concrete examples. faggot.

And you seem like someone who would steal content and pass it off as his own, then delete the incriminating comments once you get caught.
-3 Rondog01 2015-02-19
These guys were repeatedly raped by Opie and this is one of the ways they cope by hating the show. Don't try to fight it, just give in like they did.
-12 benjamin72 2015-02-19
Don't be alarmed sir, remember two things.
The show has conservatively at least 100,000 listeners. This sub has around 300-350 people who post/vote or are active here. This is a very small minority of "fans" of the show. Think of this sub like libertarian voters in a presidential election. They are a very minor group of "fans", its kind of comical how they think differently.
They refuse to admit that it was anthony's childish reaction to a situation that got him fired. Anthony is very funny, and the show is not the same without him, but he did it to himself by being 57 years old and tweeting his childish anger like 17 year old girl who got cheated on.
Pay no mind sir, this sub is nothing more than a comic strip.
6 monkdick 2015-02-19
Curious, you got a source on that 100,000?
5 Z-Tay 2015-02-19
There's is no source because there is absolutely no way that 100,000 people listen to this show regularly.
Their highest viewed video on YouTube is at 2 mill views after 8 YEARS and it's the McDonalds girl stripping video. The second highest viewed video is the Bill Burr Philly rant just under 2 mill views, also 8 years old.
This sub has less than 10k and a lot of accounts are sockpuppets. These guys are just not that popular. I'd estimate 20k regular listeners, and I think that's being pretty generous.
3 monkdick 2015-02-19
Agreed about the 20k. That would be my guess too, at the most, and when Ant was still on the show. I figure those numbers are dwindling everyday.
-4 benjamin72 2015-02-19
So everyone who listens to the show goes on you tube and watches the videos? LOL you are an idiot.
6 Z-Tay 2015-02-19
No, Benjamin I don't think that. But, it's easy to see by their internet presence (or lack thereof) that they just are not that popular, which is why Opie is so obsessed with "going viral".
It's also the reason that he (or Sirius) is in panic mode trying to bring in a tmz element to the show.
-3 benjamin72 2015-02-19
WHOA! You really got the exclusive!
4 Pale_Pen15 2015-02-19
This coming from the guy claiming 100k
-10 benjamin72 2015-02-19
Its probably more.
4 monkdick 2015-02-19
I wish you had more than a probably. I've been listening to XM for 10 years, well til Ant got canned, and all I've ever heard is there is no definite way to verify numbers for each show. So, source or you're talking out your ass.
-6 benjamin72 2015-02-19
O&A said they they had been told "close to a million" before, maybe 2011. Do you really expect anyone to believe they have less than 100,000 listeners? Do YOU have a source for that?
3 monkdick 2015-02-19
Sounds like something Opie would say, and yea around 2005-2006 before Stern came to satellite I do believe they had hundreds of thousands of listeners, but those days are long gone, imo.
-7 benjamin72 2015-02-19
Again, do you have a source? Otherwise youre just talking out of your ass.
6 I_DOXX_CATS 2015-02-19
You're the one who claimed 100k. Source?

3 monkdick 2015-02-19
I said it was my opinion, based on listening to many SiriusXm shows. From what I gather no one knows. You're guess is based on you being a cunt, lapping Opies tits. Neither of us have a source. If there was a way to make a count, those numbers would be available. So stop talking shit.
-6 benjamin72 2015-02-19
What does it have to do with opie and why am i a cunt?
1 Popkorn 2015-02-19
Well that makes more sense.
-8 Swampbox29 2015-02-19
Long story short This sub is full of unapologetic Cum-disciples
2 Popkorn 2015-02-19
How is Anthony's new show? Worth subscribing for?
