Obsession
I love TV. Like, really really love TV. Like, possibly to an unhealthy level. I think I enjoy watching television almost as much as I like eating.
Almost.
So I figured I’d catch you all up on my current TV obsessions. I know some of y’all watch what I watch and I wanna know what y’all think.
American Idol
OMGWTF TATIANA-HO GETS ANOTHER CHANCE? This bitch is out of this world crazy, y’all. Like, if we were to discover a whole ‘nother galaxy out there in space and it was packed full of crazy it would be named Tatiana Del Toro. What the hell was she even wearing last night? It was like she sewed a bunch of her gran-mommas tablecloths together in the form of a badly fitting dress.
Also, y’all know Danny Gokey is gonna win, right? I have spoken and it shall be. BUT, if for some absurd reason that isn’t the case I will take it out on Randy. His new “What?!” phrase is on my nerves already. Someone needs to remind him he had a triangle flat-top and wore rubber outfits in the 80′s while jammin’ with Journey. He’s ain’t street.
ER
Ok, I’ve been watching this show for years. I’ll admit that I stopped for a while because it kinda got bad BUT it’s the last season and everyone is coming back and CARTER is back and not for just a little blip episode! Plus it’s all the rumor that Clooney agreed to come back WITH Julianne Margalise so that they could tie up their storyline about where they ended up together.
It’s like a hug from an old friend. I will truly be sad when this season is over. They done good on ending it.
House
What is with Cuddy? I’ve always thought Lisa Edelstein was hot in that sultry, non-traditional way. But homegirl needs to eat a cheeseburger or five and find a hair-do that isn’t better suited for an old lady back in the 70′s. She looks BAD, y’all. And I’m tried of the 13 “I have a disease and mother issues” drama. Move on. I want to see more of Kutner aka Kal Penn aka Kumar. He’s funny and we don’t know that much about him.
Heroes
Hayden Pantenawhatsername looks like a wax figure from Madam Tussauds. What did they do to her? She was always so adorable. Her hair looks like a wig and she’s all shiny and weird.
I love Sylar. He’s fuckin’ with that kid so hard. It’s like he’s found a little mini-me pet.
I still don’t get how Nathan is running this whole operation to kidnap and contain the heroes when that fucker can FLY. AND NO ONE EVER TELLS ANYONE HE CAN. Hello? I’d be all up telling that military dude that his boss is a freak, too.
Plus Angela being all good- you know she ain’t. And this flip-floppin’ between Bennet being good or bad. Pick a side, man.
Also, Hiro needs his powers back. I think it’s just mean that he doesn’t. Ando having powers is stupid.
90210
Nah nah nah nah-Nah nah nah nah- CH CH.
Is it wrong that I want Silver’s style? I love her hair and her clothes but there is this little thing about me being 33 and chubby not being able to pull it off. I think if I rock the converse and leggings to work people might talk. Whatever.
The show is bad. I know it’s bad but I can’t stop watching. I heart Kelly. She hasn’t changed a bit. Brenda is still a royal bitch. And Donna is coming back! And Diablo Cody will be on! That’s gonna be dope.
Dancing with the WTF… I mean Stars
This will start next week and I’ll be watching like a fool. Have y’all seen the mess of celebs on there? RIDICULOUS. And not in that hip-lingo way. But I’ll watch. Jewel AND her rodeo bull ridin’ husband are both supposed to be contestants but rumor has it that she hurt her knee and can’t participate. So, they are adding one of Hugh Hefner’s old ho’s instead. We got sluts, thugs and who are you?’s this season. Awesome. Or awesomely sad. Either way I’m tunin’ in.
Rock of Love Bus
Skanks galore. I can’t even root for anyone because they are all skanktastic. The only girl I liked was Beverly and next episode is about how she’s gone all psycho. AWESOME.
He’s gonna end up picking that hot tranny mess Farrahwith the gigantic fake tits. I know they ALL have fake tits, but this chick looks like any minute those things are going to explode and escape. She’s so busy being a drunk ho and effin’ around with the Amy Winehouse/Sandra Bernhard wanna be that she wouldn’t know if Brett was coming on to her or slapp-a-ho’in her.
Also, Brett is just gross. Like, grody to the max.
Confessions of a Teen Idol
Well, its over now, but I was watching it. What a bizarre show. First of all, I wouldn’t classify these dudes as Idols. Second of all, it was so bad it was uncomfortable. I wrote this blog way back when about Billy Hufsey and people thought I was serious. His “Street Team” was all over my comments. Hello? Has no one heard of sarcasm? I stopped giving him shit in his blogs and what not because it became so easy. It was like shooting fish in a barrel.
We shouldn’t be watching these dudes scrape the bottom like this. It was just… not ok. But, of course, I couldn’t stop watching. Its over now and apparently VH1 is making it so that they get chances for a comeback. We shall see.
Bones
Ok, I’ll admit I’m only watching this show because of dreamy David Boreanaz. I finally finished all my Buffy and Angel but I didn’t want Angel to end. So I’m considering this Angel season 6 rather than Bones season 1. I borrowed the dvd’s from Kristy (who also lent me Buffy- she’s awesome) so that I can catch up then I’ll start watching it regularly on tv. And yes, David Boreanez is delicious. He’s thinner and ya know, not dead and drinking blood in this show. Which is a nice change. Except for the thinner part. I mean, he’s still smokin’ but I really like a little meat on my men.
BUT even though it’s really NOT Angel season 6 I’m really lovin’ the show. So is Mike- and he hated Angel. We had many discussions on which is more awesome vampires or superheros. But what he could never realize is that Angel was both a vampire AND superhero so he ruled them all. FACE.
Shit. I think I just let you guys way too deep into my geekery. Oh well.
So, tell me. What are your thoughts on my shows? What are y’all watching that I’m not and should maybe start? And I dont’ want to hear about the jackass bachelor. What a douche.
-Snuggling my remote
Ali
PS- With AT&T U-verse, I can totally set my DVR from the web. HOW COOL IS THAT SHIT! Kristy laughed when she so my list but I DON’T CARE. Step off.
You have to imagine Ali watching these shows with my hilarious comments. I had some good ones last night during American Idol.
Also, my comments during 90210 are priceless.
You left a bunch of shows off this list…
I watch Idol, Heroes, and Bones. I watched House, but I haven’t at all this season (sad panda).
Idol– WTF??!! I agree. Last night I forgot about the flippin’ wild card and started gettign worried. All I could think was, they’re going to pick Tatiana crazy bitch lady. AND THEY DID! What she wore…I still don’t know what that was. I texted Di and asked the same thing, “what she wearin’?” I think she is ridiculous. And I hope to see another break down because that shit’s funny. I hope she doesn’t make it tonight and we get to see her rollin’ on the ground crying. Good stuff right there.
Bones– I’m liking it more and more as the seasons keep coming. I watched Buffy and Angel, too. Super fan of both of those series, too. I agree, it’s like watching Angel but not. He’s gotten thinner, but I love how they still let him be sarcastic. Angel was sarcastic and a bad ass. And I feel like they kept that sense of humor with this show, but it’s a good role for him. I love it and I got Joshua to watch it, too.
Heroes– In love with Heroes. I’m a little perplexed. I love Sylar, too. I feel like this kid ACTUALLY does know something but not telling Sylar (of course). I just get this vibe that he does or he knows something about his father actually, but doesn’t want to share because of fear. I dunno…maybe that’s just me, but I want to know more about this kid and Sylar’s relationship. And I get more and more upset with scenes of Nathan. I can’t stand him. For some reason I get the “good brother” and “bad brother.” MAKE UP YOUR MIND!!! Also, I would be telling everyone his secret, too lol. They’d probably lock me up, too, but damn I would be a gossip whore. I actually want him to get caught, somehow. I don’t like that military dude, I think there is a story there and I want to know more. Cheerleader chick looks fake, I will agree, but that hot comic dude was nice to look at. lol, not gonna lie. I like how her mother is stepping up. I always thought she was a strong woman and it’s good to see this side of her. She isn’t dead space anymore. I think this whole series is awesome, they are telling us stuff and not and it keeps me guessing. I love how the show is one big cliff hanger. It’s just aggrivating when you want to know more!!
Dollhouse– I’m watching this, still don’t know how I’m going to like it. I have watched everyone so far. I’m still afraid that it’s going to get too repetitive. ‘I’m malibu barbie this week.’ ‘I’m a detective this week.’ ‘I’m a stripper this week.’ Yes, they have made the story interesting by having a man coming after her, but it’s still repetitive. She’s pretty but I always thought she came across as a masculine slut lol. She acts well, but there’s something about her that I never liked. When she was in Buffy and Angel I got so annoyed with her, and I feel that way in this show. She’s a bimbo one second, and something else right after. I dunno, I hope it gets better as it keeps going. I also think that they’re going to keep getting people from Angel to be on this show. The guy who played that demon side-kick in the first season of Angel who dies…is helping this cop out. lol, he plays a foreigner and I forget his name, but it’s interesting. HELL, maybe they’ll get ANGEL to be on the show hahahaha. That would be fun! lol.
I watch Idol and I cant’ stand that crazy bitch! i think they gave her another chance for ratings!! Also because they don’t want her to hunt them down and kill them.
By the way next week I’m taping Madeline while she watches American Idol! Hysterical! She is like on crack…dancing and going nuts!! I had to wash my make-up off because I was crying laughing at her!!
I heart Danny Gokey!!!!! Big time! I liked him and his friend from the moment he auditioned! I can’t wait for him to win!!
I also watch 90210 and can’t stop no matter how bad it gets.
Rock of Skanks is just ridiculous!! Those girls are just filthy nasty!!
Everything else you watch sucks.
I <3 Bones, for the EXACT same reasons you do, right down to ole DB’s chunk. The chunk gives a gal something to hang onto. Wouldn’t want to go flying across the room at an inopportune moment…
I used to watch Heroes but got off-track so now I’m way behind. That kinda shit happens to me.
I have liked Bones, but something else must be on when I want to watch it.
I am a foodie, so I liked Top Chef this year.
But my new favorite (did you notice the American spelling?) is Lie to Me. Brilliant and timely.
American Idol really has gone downhill fast. Danny Gokey is good; my guess is that it will be him and Lil Rounds in the end.

Let me just tell you that I’ve loved the show bones from day one. I love the chemistry between David and Emily. And well lets face it, I love David too. I have watched the dvd’s a ton of times and I really love when Emily and David do commentaries.
Let me know when you get all caught up cause I’d love to finally have someone to talk to about the show. No one I know watches the show, they are all stupid.
You know that I watch Idol. I can’t really get ‘into’ it this year… I don’t know if it’s the new format or what, but it just seems rushed and all over the place. I’ve just kept it on in the background over the last few weeks, but tonight (the wild card show) was probably the best I’ve seen any of them perform. As you know (like everyone else) my dvr cut the end off, so I didn’t get to see the last choices, but I’m looking forward to the top 12… er… 13 (wtf?). I’ll ‘start’ watching it then, again.
DWTS is still going to be a weekly thing. As much as I dislike Steve-O, I’m still rooting for Lacey. I’m disappointed in some of the other ‘stars’, but I think we say that every season, don’t we?
‘Confessions’. Man. I just have no words. It was just such a sad little show, only made better by the fact that these guys were being ‘brought back’ to the limelight by Chachi and Wayne Arnold. Classic. Cuz they’ve done SO much with their careers. Oh wait, they did this show. LOL!
I’m so sad that ER is ending. I think you summed it up nicely and I don’t think I can add anything else, really. I just have two weeks of it to catch up on so I can’t say much, anyway. But yeah, it’s a favorite that I’m sorry to see go, even though its time has passed.
I don’t really watch anything else anymore. I’m scrolling my brain but nothing comes to mind. It’s really mostly background noise these days for me. I was addicted (no pun) to Celebrity Rehab and now I sorta watch Sober House, but not enough to say I can’t live without it (maybe because most shows these days last for 6 weeks and you never see them again). I can’t wait for SYTYCD to start again this year, and Project Runway, of course, but otherwise, nothing else comes to mind. If I think of something… I’ll get back to ya.

Get a blog, Dianne.
Geekery is a great word. It’s going to be my word of the day.
The shows on your list that I watch are Bones and House. I also watch Hell’s Kitchen. There’s another food show that will be on Wednesdays hosted by a man who once made Gordon Ramsey cry.
Mike: Sometimes your comments are hilarious and sometimes they make me want to wop you in the ding-ding.
Meg: I DIDN’T KNOW YOU WERE A BUFFY AND ANGEL FAN. HOLLER @ YA GIRL! Sorry. I’m ok now. I work with some fans and we are straight up dorks when we start talking about it.
And I’m surprised at how many of y’all are diggin’ on Bones. I didn’t realize how many people watched.
I started Dollhouse, too. I’m still on the fence, but I’ll keep you posted.
Sarah- you better make good on that video! And you watch some sucky shit, too. FACE.
Ding- He’s quite delicious and seems like he’d be tons of fun.
Bruce- Nice Americanization! I’ve watched Top Chef before- I always forget that it’s going to start, though. My favorite chef show was Take Home Chef. I don’t know if it’s still on, though.
Amy- I KNEW YOU LIKED BONES! I think we may have bought you one of the seasons, but I can’t remember. When I’m all caught up we’ll chat for sure.
Dianne- ER. HEART! I’m so happy and sad. And WTF with the worlds dvr’s cutting off. Fuckin’ crap. I’m on pins and needles for SYTYCD.
Mike- STFU, man.
Monica- I will gladly let you use geekery. I also love dumbassery and douchebaggery.
