Title: My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance'
Post by: gofaster on January 13, 2004, 01:56:34 PM: Is anybody going to actually watch this claptrap (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=597&ncid=763&e=7&u=/nm/20040113/tv_nm/leisure_fiance_dc) for entertainment value? I think Fox has sunk to a new low here. "Joe Millionaire" was one thing, but deliberately causing pain and anguish in a family and calling it fantastic entertainment is downright disgusting.

'The family's reaction is more than we ever could have imagined that it would be," Darnell told Reuters. "It was very difficult for them, and that made it extraordinarily difficult for her. ... It's hysterical."

LOL, admit it, you're going to watch it. Just like chicken necking to see that accident you're passing on the freeway :)

Post by: Chairboy on January 13, 2004, 07:16:05 PM: I've got a suggestion, how about a Reality TV series about people who are outraged at Reality TV? Each week, a camera crew could film different families watching reality TV and edit their unscripted reactions into something funny. I nominate Mr.Black and Gofaster for the first episode.

I'd rather be unconscious than watch that crap.

Sounds like a winner to me! When's sweeps? Let's book it!

Just one problem. How do we incorporate babes in bikinis into the mix? Maybe instead of a studio set we could use a hot-tub overlooking a beach. Yeah, that's the ticket! We got us a ratings winner!

Rofl, me too !!

I was like, "Okay, what did we do again ?!! "

Btw, I just noticed that in every Hollywood movie made in the last two years, the bad guys ain't Russians or Cubans anymore, they're French ! (at least one of them), even in Tarantino's Kill Bill, there's one hot villain French chick !

I hear Straffo has joined the Actor's Studio, to star in the next blockbuster :
"Red Dawn 2, revenge of the freedom fries"
