The Real World
I haven't written in here since I was at first all too excited about blogging. Right now I am taking a quick break, from work because there's too much to do at work to actually leave the building. I housesat last night. For me, hosesitting is like a mini vacation. No housemates and cable TV. I don't own a TV, so giving me several hundred channels is like handing me a dozen doughnuts and saying: HAVE AT IT! These are my thoughts after watching a night of TV:
1. why is Reality TV like crack? It's so bad, but I just can't stop watching it. Seriously. Nanny 911 is addictive as hell. I think Project Runway is Gucci for televsion! Genius! Pure genius!
2. Why do people mill around courthouses when famous trials are going on? What's the draw? What is it to them if Scott Peterson is found guilty? I saw footage of Scott Peterson's mother leaving the courthouse, and people were screaming at her that her son was a monster and that he would rot in hell. It all seemed so biblical or Salem witch trialesque. I don't understand why they would need to do this--the woman's son--sociopath or not--was just found guilty of murdering her daughter-in-law and her grandson. I think it's safe to say that this may be the worst day of her life--why get dark ages about it?
3. I remember the first season of 'The Real World', back when no one knew what reality tv was. I know I am going to sound like the oldest fart in america when I say that the current incarnation of 'The Real World' is so far away from the real world, it leaves me quaking in my pajamas. Who said living in a swank pad with all bills paid, and your only responsability is a cushy volunteer job, was EVER the real world? They should retitle it to '6 People taking a break from the Real World.' Or better, 'Unlikely Ever to Happen in the Real World.'
4. I think 'Sienfeld' is on 24/7, thanks to the range of its syndication. I also think it might have finally happened: I am sick of it.
5. Why can't there be several chances a day to see Oprah?
6. Wait a minute, Bridgete Nielson of Rocky III fame and Flavor Flave of Public Enemy or a couple?? Anything really can happen in TV Land.
7. I think I would buy a box set of Family Ties.
8. Once again, I have come to the conclusion that it's a good thing I don't own a TV, bcause I would be big as a house, get nothing done, and think the world is coming to an end. Also, I wold probably think there was no reason to do anything else. Why leave the couch when the E! true Hollywood story of Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson is coming on in half an hour? Thankfully, I am home to my cable-free room tonight. It's a good thing, because I need to get some shizzle done.
