AHHHH!!!! YOU FOUND ME!
DA DA DA DA!!!! Welcome to my blog. So yyeeeaaahhhh you're going to have to come in on Saturday. No, really though, this first one shall be short due to the fact that a) still getting my feet wet so to say and b) because ssshhhh, i'm at work. Tee hee hee.
Anyway, from time to time.. ok more often than that I get these strange and intriguing thoughts in my mind and what better way to get them out then to post them on the internet for all to see!! (as I slowly creep my infectious thoughts out there in order to slowly TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!)
Ok, so here shall be my first intro. What is up with all these commentary shows that Vh1 is making sooooo many bucks off of? First, it started with I Love the 80s, which growing up in the late 80s, early 90s, I found quite enjoyable, I will admit. So... they thought, wow, that worked... lets do... I love the 70s!! wow were they way off base! First, just because they target an older audience, doesn't mean that 30-40 somethings are watching their channel and whats more... who cares about the 70s! Did the 70s have stonewash jeans, banana clips and off the shoulder sweatshirts? I THINK NOT! People only want to hear about trainwreck fads! So... they thought... hmm.. how can we make this better... oh i know... I Love The 80s, Strikes Back! Get it... Star Wars... Very Cleaver. Also... enjoyable. Mostly, because this time the no-talent assclowns didn't forget jelly shoes! Honestly... dropped the ball on that one first time around guys... Ok, so it cooled off for a while and people started saying "dude... wouldn't it be cool to have an I Love The 90s?" and... VOILA! A new star was born. It was enjoyable as well, but it didn't have that luster that the "80s" did. So... hey.... talk about a cash cow... LETS DO ALL OF OUR PROGRAMMING AROUND THIS!!! Now... we have... all of the "I Love..." shows... AND Best Week Ever. I get it guys... it works for you.. but seriously... Best Week Ever... It's only going to work if you get Rachel Harris in on the action... everyone knows she made the I Love The 80s for you. Above everything though... if I honestly wanted to know what people thought about whats going on in media and the world... if I wanted the opinion of someone I will never meet... I'D JUST READ BLOGS!!! Do I really care what Ant thinks about the Kerry Daughters? NO!
AND don't even get me started on Celebrities A 2 Z... that's a winner...
So.. what have we learned from all this? Just because something works once, doesn't mean it's going to work again, did everyone forget "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" or "Starship Troopers 2" or my personal favorite "Speed 2?" Seriously...
I must leave you now... I Love The 90s, Part Deux is on soon.
I'M OUT LIKE A FAT KID IN DODGE BALL!

The 80's and 90's were rad because of one thing: Hairspray! We need more of it.
