It was poppin’ off on Rock of Love Bus

I finally have a moment to watch some of the stuff on my Tivo so I’m watching Rock of Love Bus first, then switching to 30 Rock to avoid completely dumbing myself down.

Right now, I’m at the part where Melissa popped her breast implant and then got on the phone with her boyfriend to talk about Bret’s fake hair.

Oh snap!

Of course, the other girls ran to Bret to tell him about this little incident and he didn’t take kindly to a girl pointing out his obvious washed-up, middle-aged style choices. Pretty funny that any of these bleached plastic hos would make fun of someone else for being synthetic…. especially the person whose “love” they’re competing for on a tv show.

Melissa denied it, but defended herself by saying she was frustrated that Bret hasn’t paid attention to her.

Bret acknowledged that he wears “the finest quality extensions that Europe had to offer” before telling Melissa to get the fuck out.

By the end, he also cut Brittany (or “Brittaney” as I think she spells it)

It sucks that the keep booting the crazy girls because that type of thing is what makes this a great trashy show. We need drunk ckicks doing shots out of eachother’s vajayjays psycho obsessive former porn filmmakers having bipolar episodes, and chicks popping implants and talking shit. That’s what makes this Rock of Love.

I also like that this season already has a rising injury tally…. and I can’t wait to see how they handle the well-publicized car crash that killed two people.

American Idol Twitter updates

While I just can’t bring myself to write a full story about American Idol, I have been microblogging about the show on the Trashwire Twitter. You can check out my live tweets on the sidebar during the show or head on over to twitter.com/trashwire to follow the posts and reply.

Here’s a few quotes from what I had to say about last night’s contestants:

Ah, Simon never disappoints. “So you’re truning your back on your band?”

Elijah Scarlett sounded like the distorted effect they put on anonymous witnesses on Dateline.

Now I’m worried we’ll find Leah Marie dead in her car outside Kara’s house.

This dude actually thought it was a good idea to go to a shop and pay money for a tattoo that says “Sexual Chacolate”

Cody Sheldon is like Sanjaya only with over-tweezed eyebrows.

I think that one dude was a frightened homeless rabbi

It might be hard to express yourself in 140 characters, but it seems roomy when describing these so-bad-they’re-good contestants. Besides, who wants to watch after the first few episodes when the only people left are those who have actual talent?

Momma’s Boys

Just saw this write up about NBC’s Momma’s Boys and thought it was pretty spot-on.

Momma’s Boys will never make it to a second season, but that doesn’t matter, it is just like the droves of sensationalist, sex driven television before it. It is tittlating television that garners the day after discussions that drive ratings in a rough television market.
