It has been a great two weeks for me as a few new reality shows have sprung up. I tell ya I am happier than a pig in slop over it and I felt that it was selfish to keep my feelings on these tasty nuggets to myself...
I know it is cool to be above watching reality shows and even my friends turn up a collective nose at such sophomoric entertainment. Though I would look much more intelligent taking this stance, I have to admit I am addicted.
For the longest time I just could not figure out why this television genre would affect me so deeply but I think I have located the appeal…
I watch people.
Plain and simple I love to just observe and absorb everyone. Yeah, I am the one going to sporting events and getting more of a kick out of the rabid fans all around me. And no, this is not the tree- hugging hippie in me speaking. This is the lady that slows down traffic to get a good look at the accident blocking the lane, I am just sick!
Don’t get me wrong, it is not all reality shows. I detest Survivor, The Amazing Race, American Idol (with the exception of the audition episode) and all the major ones people talk about every week …. I like the stupid ones.
Gimme “Dog the Bounty Hunter” and “Surreal Life” and other top quality programming any day…
Because I love to laugh.

Flava of Love 2 (vh1)
I admit it; I was secretly waiting for this one to come back. Anyone that had no life like me and watched the first season was thrilled when he picked Hoopz and for some damn reason they didn’t work out... (much to the happiness of VH1 execs I am sure) so up comes a new search for his next baby momma.
You know, I am fully aware that I should be quite ashamed to be so stuck on “CelebReality”... but I admit it, I watched Surreal life when Flav came out of obscurity. Then got hooked watching the train wreak that was “Strange love” with him and that crazy giant chick Brigette… and now it is like my little boy is all grown up on this the second season of Flava of Love.
First of all, these new chicks are even more insane than the last bunch. In the first FIVE minutes there was a cat fight. It was awesome. They were fighting over a bed y’all.
A BED!!
Gimme a break.
I also see a good bit of them with gaps in their teeth. Since Flav supposedly hand picked these girls I am thinking he may have a fetish for that kind of thing. He also seems to prefer white women who…
let’s see how do I put this?
Ok well there is more than one Caucasian woman there who prefers to speak slang you normally would not expect… if one chick said “I’m keepin’ it real yo..” one more time I was gonna just lose it.
Of course the highlight of the premiere HAS to be the drunken chick that could not scale the huge staircase in time to answer an urgent call from her stomach so she inadvertently takes a mini dump on the stairs. Damn that is just class!

Just a thought here Flav… I know why it is taking you two seasons to find a quality Boo. It MIGHT have something to do with the Viking hats, the king hat, the gold grill the huge clocks and the fact that you are like 4 foot 8.
Gene Simmons Family Jewels (A&E)
Surprise Surprise Gene Simmons has another new reality show. In this one he decides to show his own children how to become stars.
PR for this show says “Dad is Gene Simmons – the legendary, tongue wagging demon of KISS. Mom is Shannon Tweed -- former Playmate Of The Year, actress and model. And their kids, Nick and Sophie, are, well...surprisingly charming, well-behaved teenagers dealing with the trials and tribulations of adolescence, even though Mom and Dad are like no one else’s parents.”
So yeah, I happened upon the premiere last night and a couple of things occurred to me…
Gene is hokey as hell… like real annoying dads who USED to be cool... Just when I am sitting here thinking “Good GAWD Gene what WON’T you sell yourself out for…” his kids captivated me and held my attention.
His daughter is beautiful. And I think a model, though I have to admit she did not interest me as much as Nick, Gene’s son and an aspiring rock star. Well, I dunno if his intention is becoming his father or just having his own band like many talented teens do for at least a few weeks. But Gene is taking over and teaching him how to be a star by imparting all of his freakishly long-tongued wisdom to the wee lad.
I love this kid. He is hilarious. Not in a “yuck yuck” kinda way, just the smartassed son way. Nick Simmons is going to be a breakout star, mark my words. The moments he made me laugh out loud were USUALLY while he is making fun of his father who needs a damn hair cut. (seriously Gene, check that hair)
Hey I will be the first one to say that yes I loved the Osbournes. I watched every damn week and all the marathons. I was captivated by Ozzie. Now that man became endearing as an old assed metal legend… but more, a dad. And a husband. And an incoherent rambler. Ah, good times.
And as much as I watched that show Kelly and Jack just annoyed me. They are ungrateful spoiled brats. In fact, Kelly reminds me of that spoiled bitch in Gene Wilder’s Willy Wonka who gets turned into some big blueberry. (don’t ask me where that came from.) No, it was Ozzie that made that damn show for me.
Gene? I don’t care much for this one. Of course I was not all that hot for him anyway but you have to respect the Gods that were KISS. That is, UNTIL you get a good look at Gene and how he acts. He’s smug.
Going into a vintage store, finding a KISS Tee marked to 2.00 he starts to harass the young teen clerk for having it marked so low then buys it from her for 40. He also books his son’s band a gig before they even really HAVE a band then interrupts rehearsals to show them “how to be stars”. Nick throws his father out of the room and Gene shuffles out dejected more than once.
I’m telling y’all. Nick will be huge in a few weeks. And Gene just needs to shuffle off into pasture.
*sigh*
Ok well, till next time kiddies. If you need a fix of my dementia before then check out PopSyndicast and listen to me on my crappy ass dial up talk to Stefan Halley about nonsensical things like this. Woo. Hooo.

What!? No Project Runway love?
I was all up in the Gene Simmons show.
And I agree; where the Osbourne brood was mostly annoying, Gene’s kids were funny and warm and likeable.
Oh good Lord. Flaver Of Love 2? Ugh. I
admit, I watched the entire first season,
and hated myself for it. I vowed not to
watch and of the second season, but ended
up tuning into the first episode, anyway.
What a modern-day minstrel show. If I
were the leader of one of those White
supremecist groups, I’d be taping this
show and using it as my recruitment video.
It’s funny, because “New York’s” mom on
the last show seemed so mean, but she
was speaking the truth. What woman in
her right mind would be competing to
“win” the love of a man in his mid-40’s,
with SIX kids (by, I think, 3 women), a
history of drug abuse and domestic
violence charges (heck, didn’t he slap
Brigette on one of those earlier
shows?), who dresses like a cartoon
character and, above all else, is
REALLY REALLY UGLY?
I’ve taken another vow not to watch
the rest of is. But I know that,
like Flav and crack, it’s just hard
to stay away from. . .
No I have not seen project runway, but with your recommendation I shall, when is it on?
New “superhero” tonight… I cannot wait.
and yes, ya just can’t quit the Flav…
I think Wednesdays on Bravo. I end up getting on iTunes due to a lack of cable. :-)
I watched the first season of Flavor of Love, and shamefully enjoyed every episode. This second one though is pretty bad. There’s really no one to like in this batch (Goldie was my pick in the first one). When the chick took a dump on the stairs, I knew this thing had jumped the shark.
