Daytime TV
For the first time in years I watched a bit of daytime TV, and I can report to you that the entire lineup is designed for dunces.
Soaps: Zooming in before cutting away to another scene or a commercial -- WTF? If I'm ever elected president, I'll sign a presidential order forbidding soap opera directors from using their zoom controls. This is absurd.
Also, things have changed in one regard since I last watched a soap (1980s) -- the young female actresses have lip implants (or injections or whatever). This is HIDEOUS. I want to ralph when I see a woman with unnaturally bulging lips. It's rude and I can't watch. If I were married, and I THANK MY LUCKY STARS I'm not, and my wife announced she wanted lip implants, I would serve her with divorce papers immediately. What is the matter with these women?
Game shows: I watched a bit of The Price is Right with Drew Carry (sp?). Straight off, Drew is a stupid looking shitbag. Why is he on TV? And he's clearly bored off his ass.
The worst part of the show is the contrived, artificial joy -- the upbeat music, the crowd screeming with glee when the applause lights are on, and the ridiculous voice of the idiot who announces the contestants and product details. Anyone who watches this show otta be shot. Don't retirees, welfare mothers, and stay at home moms have any taste whatsoever?
The View: Elizabeth Hasselcunt is six years old. Seriously. If I had been listening, but not watching, I would have thought there were three women and a child having a conversation. While I was watching, Elizabeth said the group New Kids On The Block were her generation's Beatles. I think that speaks for itself.
The 700 Club: I can't believe a major network is running this. No real surprise it's Fox, the Christian Right network. Did you know that CBN was able to bring the Christian healing of Jesus Christ to millions of people worldwide? Atta boy, CBN.
The show had on a former "Vegas callgirl" who found Jesus. Strangely, after finding Jeebus she still looks exactly like a whore. Her hair style, huge circular earrings, and a tight shirt that shows off big boobs -- it's interesting that a whore can allegedly change her wicked ways and yet still want to present herself to the world as a whore.
"On the streets of Las Vegas...she not only sold her body, she nearly lost her soul." Oh, brother.
Why is this nonsense the only viable alternative to Liberalism in America?
