Agreed. And then some.

Ouch. I didn't think they were that bad. Lots of energy and they seemed to enjoy what they were doing.
+1 to Guido.
Not really my thing, but they do their own thing and seem to have fun doing it. Much better than most "club" music you hear. Plus, they don't pretend like they are something special - they are entertainers and nothing more (their music isn't deep, special, or whatever).
Yeah, the Black Eyed Peas suck. And so do the people who mix their sound, and so do the people who were in charge of turning on the big LOVE stage and missing half the V.
The whole halftime show SUCKED. There is no other way to put it. The Black Eyed Peas were horrible, and the sound system was even worse. That was just not a well planned show.
Not a fan of The Black Eyed Peas, and I missed the whole half time show by choice, guess I didn't miss much.
It was awful...Lots of complaints on this one.....
Maybe not as many complaints if there had been a Fergie wardrobe malfunction?
That was the worst half time show I have ever seen. We laughed so hard it hurt, then Usher came down on the crane and my 2 year old began singing "Pants On The Ground" and the whole room just about fell out of their chairs.
Imagine, they could get 30,000 LEDs to blink and change colors but they couldn't get any of the mikes to work properly.
Bad!

Someone mentioned to me that it looked like 'Tron meets Glee'...
Slash should reconsider appearing with amateurs in the future. Made him look like a tool.
Has there ever been a good Super Bowl halftime spectacular?
Wasn't it The Who last year?
They weren't bad.
Also, I've always thought the Black Eyed Peas sound must be created in mixing because every live show I've seen them on sounds like crap. Possible reasons for that are:
1. Bad mixing
2. They have no vocal control
I'm starting to go with #2
Here is the whole show for those who missed it:

The Who sucked last year. It was embarrassing.
I was totally underwhelmed by the whole show and broadcast. How much longer does Fox have the Super Bowl under contract?
Two years ago they opened the NFL season across the river in Pittsburgh, And the songs were the exact same ones.
Watch any music awards shows dating back to their last album and songs are the same ones.
I switched over to Pawn Stars after the first half and didnt miss a thing. Im just not a B.E.P. fan. "Didnt need dat boom boom boom, didnt need dat boom boom boom"

Anybody remember Up With People? Just kidding... Years ago the Disney World Electrical Parade performed at one in Miami. It was pretty good. Of course it was after many margarita's. Looked good on TV anyway.
Trying to appeal to the masses is never easy.
33% are watching the game and 66% are watching what Dorito/car/godaddy commercials are up to. 1% are passed out, etc. Those are unscientific numbers btw.
My wife enjoys Fergie and friends. I can take or leave them.
I find myself conversing with surrounding friends during halftime more than watching it. It's background noise.
Phil Collins once performed for halftime. Phil freaking Collins. Phil to the mother freaking Collins. was. halftime. entertainment.
They've done worse than Black Eyed Peas.

Diana Ross. A half time show that caused a generation of children to wake up screaming during the night, begging their mothers to protect them from the scary lady monster.
I didn't see the show since I don't watch sports and made it a point to keep it off at my house. However, I watched that youtube video to see what you were talking about, and it was painful to see. Not only are the BEP songs just dumb, but their performance was awful, off key, off time, and generally just poor. It was all about the flash, glitter, and lights. I'm glad I missed it. The episode of Glee after the game was a good one, though.

Interesting as to what was a music video in 1980 as to what a internet music video is 30 years later.
