Testing the Waters with Some Bad TV

Getting back into it...

I've recommended TV shows in the past. The following is not necessarily a recommendation, but more of a list of shows I should be embarrassed about watching.

"Stop emasculating me!"

If you don't watch the Bachelorette, then you probably missed the most uncomfortable relationship fight in TV history. Jake the Pilot, I'm sure he has a last name but I don't care enough to look it up, is nuts. He was trying to make himself look like the good guy, and he failed. I was rooting for him to keep talking, because every time he did, it got worse. And either his ex-girlfriend is a great actress, or she was genuinely upset, because I really felt for her. That, and I love Chris Harrison (the host...I know his name). The people on this show make his job easy, but I still think he's great. "Ali, gentlemen, your final rose tonight." Regarding the actual season currently going on...Go Chris L.

I also am sucked into Secret Life of an American Teenager. I don't know how it happened, but before I knew it, I knew every plot line and character on the show. Now I'm into it.

I also wish I could go back in time and join glee club in high school. Or at least find a school with a glee club with some nasty singers. But when we're watching Glee and the commercials come on, I scream at Michelle to fast forward the DVR. At which point she whips the clicker at or near my skull. She doesn't take any crap, to put it lightly.

MTV now has an HD channel where I live, and Jersey Shore is back soon. But I'm afraid it will be TOO fake. The first season was so funny because these were regular people living how they do (I think) but I'm afraid the expectations are too high for them to be "real." I hope it doesn't turn into the Hills where it basically becomes a scripted reality show. Although the Hills never did it for me anyway. We'll see. I will watch Jersey Shore either way.

I also watch good television, but this post was dedicated to junk.

I also recently got an iPhone for the first time, and I don't want to keep posting, I want to go play with my phone. I thought I was cool with a qwerty keyboard so I could text fast. Wow, was I missing out...

  1. Welcome back brother. I haven't gotten into any of the shows you've mentioned, although I've heard plenty about the Bachelorette. I may or may not be silently judging you for enjoying Glee.
