what's your name again?

Surely I am not the only one to think that it’s just a little odd that EVERY SINGLE time they switch scenes on Laguna Beach, the producers feel the need to remind us who everyone is with little captions on the screen. As if we’ve forgetten since we saw them in a scene 6 minutes ago? And not only do they remind us their names, but also their relationships to the other people in the scene with them. “Deiter Stephen’s friend”. Oh, and then in case you forgot who Stephen is… “Stephen”. Yeah, thanks MTV, never would have figured that one out.

another hottie to watch

The series premiere of Prison Break was last night, and it was AWESOME. For those of you that missed it, they are re-airing it on Thursday night on FOX and you should totally watch it. It’s from the creators of 24, and it was totally fascinating. Complicated as all hell and left me a bit confused at times, but really good. And the guy who plays the main character Michael is a little hottie, which is always a bonus. I imdb’ed him to figure out who he was, and he’s an actor named Wentworth Miller. That must be the worst name ever, you’d think he would have come up with a stage name when he hit the Hollywood scene. He was in a bunch of stuff I’ve never seen before, but I am thoroughly enjoying watching him on Prison Break.

The show is on in 24’s regular timeslot, so I’m guessing this show will keep me busy til 24 starts up again in January. Start watching, okay?

you're an evil whore!

So if they’re going to do a My Super Sweet…Eighteen edition featuring triplets, they could have at least have found a slightly cuter set of triplets. These girls were not very cute at all and watching them compete against each other to be the center of attention at their Vegas-themed extravaganza was not nearly as exciting as watching Sophie freak out when she found out Maggie got an invitation to her party. Sophie gets what Sophie wants and Sophie’s always right. Oh, to be a spoiled teenage brat…

take that Kelly!

I just read up on the contestants that will be competing on the Martha Stewart Apprentice show that starts next month. For anyone who is interested:

Doesn’t look like a very “fun” bunch of people, but who am I to judge.

Oh, and remember how outraged I was that J Peterman didn’t win Dancing with the Stars? Well, apparently I was not the only one because there is going to be a “Dancing with the Stars: Dance Off” Rematch on September 20th – Kelly Monaco vs. John O’Hurley. Justice will be served. I love it!

we love you anyway Talan

So on Z100 (NYC pop radio station for you non-NYers), they do these things called Phone Taps, where people call in and basically have the DJs call a boyfriend/wife/friend/mom/etc and play a joke on them. So sometimes they do Celebrity phone taps, where when they have a music star in the studio, they’ll have the celebrity do the phone tap. Well yesterday Ryan Cabrera was in the studio and they have him phone tap Talan from Laguna Beach, and I swear it’s the funniest thing ever. They basically get Talan to “agree” to pose naked with Ryan in a photo spread on the beach for some magazine. “I’ll do it if Ryan does it” he says. HAHA! Way to humiliate yourself in front of 3 million listeners.

what a little wench

Anyone catch dear little Sophie on My Super Sweet Sixteen last night? I think I watched the entire episode with my mouth hanging open. Could not even believe the audacity of that little brat. She deserves to be beat over the head, and so does her mother, for raising Sophie to be such an unappreciative little bitch. A $180K birthday party? whatever. don’t do that “whatever” thing with me. whatever.

hello? anyone out there?

I am very likely talking to myself at the present moment as my poor little tv blog dies a sloooow, awful painful death. listen, it's not my fault that summer tv sucks ass. oh, that and the fact that i've been out of town away from tv for quite some time. quite frankly, my summer has been way more exciting than tv has been anyway. too bad this isn't cindy's summer vacation commentary, because i promise that would have been a lot more exciting. and i would write about that instead to entertain you, however... i think as the saying goes, what happens in vegas stays in vegas.

ahh, i miss writing. i can't wait til the fall when good tv starts up again and i can write more (can anyone say "The OC - Season 3!"?) but back to summer tv momentarily:

There is this tragically awful show on called So You Think You Can Dance, brought to you by the producers of American Idol, but unlike AI, this show SUCKS. But yet...I CAN'T STOP WATCHING. I've got serious issues.

Hell's Kitchen was super, and I'm glad tattoo boy won, because that guy Ralph annoyed the piss out of me. seriously. I cracked up when he couldn't open his door because he LOST.

Laguna Beach. Do I really even have to explain this one? All I know is, it must be nice to be able to be in high school and be able to afford to buy your friends birthday gifts from Tiffany. I think my friends were lucky if they got a stick of gum from me for their birthday in high school. I also sometimes wish this show was on HBO, because I know it's probably a lot more scandalous than what they're allowed to show on MTV.

By far one of the most entertaining pieces of summer programming this year has been Hooking Up. These girls are a bunch of nutcases and they seriously could have done a much better job of finding dating girls to follow around. I think Andrea should have been on this show actually. She would have been fun to watch.

yeah, that's it. my leg just fell asleep and i can't concentrate anymore because it hurts like a bitch. sorry for the extra long commercial break. wait, why am i apologizing? not like anyone is still reading this anyway... or are they?
