More TV to love

Summer, its the time for BBQ's, drinks on the patio, camping and all those other cheerished outdoor activities. It is also the time where a plethora of typically terrible shows get dumped, exluding So You Think You Can Dance and Hells Kitchen.

In the interest of full disclosure I have never seen this show but the commercials alone make me wonder where Fox will draw the line of decency. The show I'm talking about is....wait for it....More To Love. In case you haven't seen the commercials it is a the Batchelor with "regular" (a few extra lbs) women. Oh and the dude is husky too.

It's not that the idea is aweful, I think in the right framework it is actually a good show to have on air, showing average people on air more often would go a long way to redefing what the populace deems to be "normal".

The problem lies with in the advertising. The More To Love name is almost clever, but the sly play on words in the ads for the show are too much. The announcer says "tune in to the biggest date night yet" with an ever so slight emphasis on the word biggest. They might as well just say the show is tons of fun.

Michael Jackson is an alien

Its been just over three weeks since MJ moon walked into the afterlife. Since then wild stories have been plastered all over the tabloids and CNN, which has basically become a tabloid. People are speculating about his death, was it murder? Was he gay? Was he a pedophile or an autopedophile? I admit I am curious to see what bizarre secrets are lying in wait to be uncovered post mortem. And then it got me thinking is there anything that I wouldn't believe if I heard it?

If I picked up a legitimate news paper and heard there was a sex tape of MJ and a monkey found I would undoubtedly believe that. If I found out his face was actually a mask made from babies and snake oil I would buy it. Is there anything that you wouldn't believe about MJ?

I like blogs

I know everyone and their dog has a blog but I enjoy them, especially themed blogs like these.

Happiest People Ever - happy no, sarcasstic yes.

This one is for Tina

For those who like to humiliate their pets


Cakes!

This is why your fat - not my words just the name of the blog.

Who would have thought that people are uglier upside down.

For some reason a website exists that feature celebrities whose faces are upside down. It is both terrifying and amazing.

The King of Pop

In case you just crawled out of a cave in Tikrit the King of Pop died yesterday. When a celebrity especially a house hold name celebrity dies there will always be a high level of media and fan interest. I realize and have accepted the fact that when I die there will be no mass candle light vigils at my hospital, or coverage on CNN, and I'm fine with that.

What I don't understand is the wackadoos who are still gathered at the hospital where he died. They're singing and crying and hugging and doing what ever else wackadoos do. I get that a fan may want to leave some flowers at what ever location the grieving masses have spontaneously decided is now and MJ memorial. But come one, did a pop star who hasn't been relevant in years and has become a disturbing cross between a 70 year old tranny and skeletor really have that much impact on your life that you are so crestfallen that you need to weep with other grieving MJ wackaddos?

On tv they showed a group of 13 year old distraught girls crying and hugging with MJ "we love you MJ" signs. This really preplxed me. These girls would only know the creepy plastic surgery MJ. The MJ that was accused of being a diddler, and who wears a surgical mask and dangles his children over balconies. How did they become fans? And where are their parents? Why are they allowed to gather with wackadoos on a school night.

Didn't see that coming

Better than Benifer?

I used to think Benifer was the best celeb couple name. Especially since it was interchangeable when Ben went From J-lo to Garner. Funny and versatile.

That was replaced with the slightly less creative but equally funny Tomkat. Brangelina is a bit of a stretch. But my new favourite is Gyllenspoon. Gylynhal is funny enough but you add spoon to the mix and hilarity ensues.
