Just When You Thought Reality TV Couldn't Sink Any Lower

Post by Jahfin »

MTV presents 70s House where they "take 12 modern kids and force them to live as though it were the 1970s. No cell phones, no iPods, no Britney! Only rotary phones, 8 tracks and Farrah. Will they be able to survive the groovy life? Find out in The 70s House."

FOX is going to have a dance show similar to American Idol. I think it is going to be called "Can you Dance" or something like that.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

LIVING in the 70's was enough for me. I DO enjoy That 70's Show...funny and memory jogging.

Does anyone else remember 1-2-3 Jello????

I haven't watched it but I think it's pretty funny that Paris Hilton's mother is the host of that show. "Yes, listen to what I say and you too can grow up to be a skank ho."

Heh. This reminds me of the scene in the History of the World where the King of France is playing human chess and says "EVERYONE JUMP QUEEN"

123 Jello still makes me cringe.

And they have to do the hustle every time a bell rings or something to that effect.

The Real World quit being 'real' about 5 years ago. Rmember when people would actually learn things about themselves and other cultures when they went on that show? Now it's all about going out and drinking and acting stupid.




I still watch it though. :oops:
