unemployment TV
Mar. 19th, 2009 11:45 pmNow that I'm on the dole, I'm catching up on the television shows that I pay the cable bill for but have never watched.
Tough Love: What is this show? It seems like some snarky dude from Great Neck and his mom make mean comments to make girls with already low self esteem feel worse about themselves under the guise of "improving" them and making it possible to find love. I was vacuuming when the show came on and ended up leaving it on. It made me want to kill myself. This is why I don't typically watch reality programs.
Take The Stage:Is this like "The Hills", except shot on the set of FAME? I like watching the kids perform, but all the "drama" kind of wears on me. I don't know if this is a "Faux" reality show or not, but I should probably just start watching the last 10 minutes.
Toddlers in Tiaras: It's like a train wreck. You can practically taste the parent's desperation oozing through the television (or maybe that's just a byproduct of watching it in HD?). I get a small shot of nostalgia watching the curly hair, the self tanner, and the $3,000 dresses. Take away the flipper and add some fiddle music, it's like watching every weekend I spent at an Irish Dance competition, done up like a rhinestone poodle. Also, I love how the little kids just want to eat extra large pixie stix while their parents hem and haw about the precious little one's facial* beauty score.
Iron Chef America: Ain't nothin' wrong with it. Love it.
* heh heh heh.... facial. Yeah, I'm 12. What of it?
