(FOUR) DANCING WITH THE STARS
I don’t get it. Why do we care about Margret Cho doing the cha-cha? This is a show for B and C List celebrities who got tired of American Idol contestants being more famous than them. So they go out on this show with trained professional dancers and train and learn how to dance. The whole time they do this they are getting paid and tons of exposure. They are literally getting paid to learn how to dance and get more famous. It makes no sense. Why should I care? 80’s TV needs to get into a time machine and unleash some Cheers and Cosby-like quality on the masses to get them off this horrible reality show kick.
(THREE) HUNTING
I don’t get it. It’s 2010. Why are we still hunting animals for fun? It’s lame. So basically you go in the woods with a weapon to kill an unexpecting animal. It’s not for defense because most animals fear cars. These animals aren’t hanging out at your kids schools trying to get them to try meth or anything. They’re just hanging out at home. How would you feel if you were sitting at home learning… I mean watching “Who’s Smarter Than a 5th Grader”… and then some deer rammed through the widow with a gun and shot up your family for no reason? And the food excuse is moot too. We can buy meats for any market and there is really not much need for someone to have 300 pounds of deer meat in their freezer. I’m not going to get preachy, but we shouldn’t even be eating red meat. But if you still want to, why not let someone else kill your food. It’s gross and retardly violent.
(TWO) FAMILY GUY
I don’t get it. The same people who like Family Guy laugh at Dane Cook jokes and shop at Old Navy. It’s ADD Animation and over the top just to be over the top. People will hate on The Simpsons all day for no reason. Yeah, it WAS better in the early seasons but still! Simpsons at its absolute worse is 10 times better than Family Guy’s best. It may be a bit lame, but The Simpsons are a family that you can be a part of and grow with. Most of us have. Family Guy is something you point and laugh at.
(ONE) JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE!
I don’t get it. Jimmy Kimmel seems like an okay guy, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to hang out with him or even watch him on TV. I don’t get the appeal of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” at all. It’s not a good show. It’s got to be the weakest of all the late night talk shows and that includes Carson Daly’s thing. He just seems so smug and impersonal. It’s as if he’s being forced to do the job and he comes off pompous and cold. He’s like a sleazy version of Jay Leno. I know at times something “controversial” will happen on his show, but it ALWAYS seems like a publicity reach. It’s only on like seven or eight years. Who the hell is watching his show? Don’t answer that. I’d rather not know…
