GAME SHOW MEDIOCRITY
You know a game show is running out of steam when the beginning running "theme" episodes, i.e. disco stars, celebrities, or children. It's the sure-fire away to cancellation. Once "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" hit the celebrity shows, it went straight downhill from there. That's why no one likes "Hollywood Squares," because it's all celebrities, all the time.
FACIAL HAIR REMOVAL SYNDROME
Well, I shaved off my little chin goatee today, and once again I have the above mentioned syndrome. It's very shocking to my system when the facial hair is suddenly removed, it's all so bare. My face looks very squat with no hair on it, kind of dumb in fact. Is this how I always look? Nooooo! Look away!...Look away!!!
RUBEN STUDDARD
What the--? Ruben? In the bottom two?? America--what the frizzick are you thinking???
JUSTIN GUARINI THOUGHTS...AGAIN
...yay...Justin Guarini is back...
Just when I thought he was gone, the curly headed, thin nosin', gap toothin' wonder shows up on American Idol. For God's sake, let sleeping dogs lie! I don't see the infatuation people have with him, the guy is LAME. I don't like anything about him. Go find a boy band and join up Justin, you just don't have the talent to go it alone. Gosh, I sure can't wait for his movie From Justin to Kelly! *sarcasm* I predict it'll smash box office records everywhere! On par with The Real Cancun even!
THE SECOND BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD
I've already proclaimed the new Zelda game as the best thing since sliced bread, but the second best thing since sliced bread is the DVD arrival of Family Guy. The late, lamented show is now on DVD! Woohoo! And it is hilarity at its finest. Why a good show like this was subjected to messed up time slots and was hardly ever on regularly after its first season, I'll never know, but some Fox executive needs to be FIRED for that blunder.
REALITY SCHMEALITY
So the founder of E! is going to start an "all reality cable TV channel" in 2004. For cry Pete, isn't this going a little too far?? Normal network TV is practically all-reality as it is! I figure you've got three types of shows: marriage shows ("The Bachelor," "Married by America"), talent shows ("American Idol," "America's Most Talented Kid"), and contest shows ("Survivor," "Fear Factor"). And these are ALWAYS ON. I can't flip the dial without seeing one! And now somebody got the bright idea to have a whole channel of it? But somebody must watch them since they all do pretty well in the ratings and they keep making them. But they're all pretty tiresome. For every one that I enjoy (American Idol), there's about 50 I hate (pretty much every other one). And don't even get me started on The Real Cancun. Reality TV has become Reality Movies. Who wants to revel in the depravity of these people? Well...I would if I was there--but I wouldn't watch it on screen!
STATS
What the heck is up with my Serv-U-Stats? It hain't working! And it hasn't worked for weeks! So I have no idea if anybody is actively reading this blog. Is all my hard work for naught? *tear* Say it ain't so!
