This is the Lemon Awards' Part Two
Where the shows of reality get treated like poo!
Not to mention the guest stars seen by Lemons' eye
As well as Net's Presidents, who deserve humble pie
But the humblest should be those of poor behavior
Towards Marc, who's so great, he's our TV savior!

Alone, they're the opposite of singular sensations
But together, as Worst Couples, they've disgusted many nations
Especially the genre's King and Queen of Dumb:
Heidi and Spencer, who's brains are so numb
And its Princess who causes everyone to groan
It's the lady called Miss Rivers, Melissa, not Joan
But let's not forget about the worst of the rest
Including Mr. Baldwin who spoke in Rosie's breast!

Some shows didn't end so well, while others shouldn't be returning
Unfortunately, their common link was making viewers churning
As we close the books on the season and before we open them this fall
We shall throw some Lemons their way by all of us making the call!

Ben Silverman has got to be the overwelming choiuce for worst network president, no matter how bad the CW does. NBC was the #1 network not to many years ago and it has been down hill ever since, with no turnaround in sight.

Ben may be the person that eventually makes NBC a Netlet as they may give back the 10pm slot to the locals, if Lenos new show is a complete failure.

Apologies! I mistakenly stated the link to Part 1 of the 2009 Lemons. I cannot adjust the URL there because I'd have to reset the poll results, which I do not want to do.

Therefore, here is the corrected link: 2009 Lemon Awards Part 1

The forum can vote in both parts of the Lemons up until just before that "other TV awards show" airs in mid-September on CBS.
