The TV Geek by Trashwire.com

If you like reality TV (or any of those trashy pseudo-reality shows) and you like blogging about reality TV, you might be just the person we’re looking for.

Trashwire.com has been growing by leaps and bounds over the past couple months and I haven’t had enough time to develop TheTVGeek to its full potential.

So, I’m looking for contributors.

If you watched every episode of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! and have been dying to put in your two cents about the Sanjaya/Holly relationship… if you already set your Tivo to record The T.O. Show on VH1… if you managed to watch Jesse’s return to the Big Brother house without puking… then you might be just the person I’m looking for.

Just use the contact form to shoot me an email and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. If you’d prefer, you can also hit me up via Twitter (@trashwire) and let me know what you’re interested in contributing from updates to commentary to video parodies.

The description of the video says it all: Pandemonium erupted outside of an “America’s Next Top Model” casting call at CW Studios in midtown Saturday when an overheating car triggered a stampede of catwalk-craving cuties

5 things I learned about dudes from watching Super Bow ads

For guys, the Super Bowl is like Christmas, New Years and a birthday all rolled into one. Aside from the game itself, all the expensive advertising seems to celebrate this most dude-centric of days. As a woman, I found it fascinating to watch what advertisers think will be appealing and to take a look at what we learn about guys from watching the Super Bowl commercials, so I bring you this list of 5 things we learn about dudes from watching these commercials.

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.

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?

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.

Normally, it’s a bad idea when celebrities blog. They typically have nothing to say, can’t seem to figure out the shift key, and use sentences that run on like a marathon athlete. There are, however, a few exceptions and this is certainly one of them.

I know Trashwire always has much love for My Chemical Romance, but after reading lead singer Gerard Way’s review of The Pick Up Artist 2, you’ll understand why I’ve become totally addicted to the revamped My Chemical Romance blog (RSS) and twitter posts.
