What is it about trashy TV shows? Right now I am flipping between Real Housewives of New York City, and The Millionaire Match Maker. What's even worse is that these shows are repeated all month, so you can watch the same gorey episodes over, and over again.
"If you aren't an eater, you're probably not any good in bed, either" quips Patti,the Millionaire Matchmaker..who looks like a cross between Elvira and Cher. How did this woman get her own TV show? Millionaire men pay her huge amounts of money to find them lasting love. But she has rules that don't go over too big."No sex on the first date." One batchelor who is especially sleazy actually has a pol ein his living room for strippers. Yep, trashy TV at its best.
Then there's the Real Housewives of New York City. This is strange.We get to see housewives, some of whom aren't married-so how can they be wives?-spend money, drink lots of martinis, and talk about each other behind their backs. They try to seduce their tennis pros, get pedicures with their clingy husbands, and find the best private school smoney can buy for their kids. I don't think they do any housework...isn't that what a housewife does?
Today while flipping through the hundreds of channels on my Comcast Digital TV, I actually came across a show about spoiled rich kids whose parents threw them lavish parties just for fun.
Most of the excitement can be found on Bravo TV. If you are really bored and are really into the trashy TV thing, Bravo knows how to make your day. They will run back to back episodes-marathon style- all day long!!
Some of my other trashy TV fav's are "What Not To Wear". The hosts actually surprise their would be clients and throw all their ugly clothes in a big trash barrel, and then make them go shopping, while trying to teach them what to wear. Tear them down, then build them back up, isn't that how it's supposed to go? I have actually seen the clients cry they are in so much distress. All in the name of good TV entertainment.
Project Runway has ended for the season, and Top Chef has begun....both competitions with panels of judges who enjoy voting off the loser each week....the competition is fierce!
And did you know we are only 5 days away from Making someone a Super Model? America gets to vote who can be made into a supermodel. Drama, drama, and more drama, as contestants competed week after week in photoshoots and on the catwalk. Will it be Ronnie, Ben, Holly? I don't know why any one of them would want to win, except maybe Ben, the prison guard from Kentucky. He needs a new line of work.
So now you know. I am a trashy TV addict, kind of. But it needs to be good, entertaining trash-I am picky about my trash. Guess Bravo's got my number.
