Writer's strike, WTF people
I kind of want to cry.
I just watched the end of this show, I think it's called Crowned. It's a reality TV show wherein mother and daughter teams compete in a beauty pageant. I think a numbered list is the best way to present my grievances, to wit:
1) The show that used to be on at eight o'clock on Tuesdays was Bones. It was about an anthropologist who solves murder mysteries. It was good. This? Is not.
2) Eeeeew! Old women trying desperately to look young! I mean, don't get me wrong, mature women can be quite beautiful. However, I do not think that Botox and excessive foundation are the way to accomplish this.
3) The pair that gets kicked off has to cut off their beauty pageant sashes with a huge pair of scissors which has, no lie, turquoise sequins all over the handle. Isn't that kind of dangerous? Not to mention gratuitously humiliating.
4) They all apparently had to pick team names. First of all, what is this, PE? Second of all, the names were horrid. The team that got kicked off this time was named the Tomboy Queens. Really, I am not even kidding you. Did they actually think before they picked that name?
5) The judges or whatever they were were really, really weird. I don't know how to describe it, except maybe that anyone who would voluntarily participate in something like this must not be quite right in the head. Also, the one woman said how everyone's dresses were so beautiful. What? The dresses looked like third graders playing dress up, actually.
Do people actually watch this show, other than to make fun of it? I mean, I just, I don't understand it! My brain, it hurts.
I really hope the writer's strike gets resolved soon (by the way, I totally support the writers in this whole mess), so that we don't have to be scarred by this drivel anymore whenever we happen to turn on the TV.

In UK you have to have this stupid channel thing (I think it's called something you pay for like virginia and sky or what so ever :) but the point is I can't see it! :(
And back home it came from channel you actually could see...
It's weird, these cool countries. O_____O.
Here I have watched (coming out of the closet, I am. lol) a reality show that is about families who try to solve their problems by going to sexology. The whole family. and then they talk about sex and stuff and they have weird tasks to do.
I would say it's pretty interesting. :D

I'm sorry about not being able to see Bones... but I'm confused, what do you mean by "cool countries"?
