confessions of a trash tv watcher II....

so as i revealed last week i'm a trash TV watcher...

in case you are wondering... he picked Peyton... i did a happy dance...
and gossip girl... let's just say that i like them better in manhattan than the hamptons... saying it is more viewable seems ridiculous... but there is something not at all believable about their parent less summer life.... sounds even more ridiculous now that i have written it out....

90210 on the other hand... billed as "An edgy, contemporary spin-off of the iconic drama "Beverly Hills, 90210,"... i'm thinking i'm going to have to watch it again to fully get the little things... like how the little kids from back in the day are now attending west beverly...Andrea Zuckerman's daughter works on the news team :P and kelly's little sister is one of the main characters who has a blog outing her classmates bad habits etc...

it's pretty much nothing like the original... for one the budget is about 1000 times bigger... this is only making me feel OLD!!! i'm also hung up on Shenae Grimes commenting on the show by saying something like this version will deal with real issue facing kids tooday unlike the original... well Shenae... that was 20 years ago... they may seem lame and unreal... but they were then...i'm defense...

i hope they fill in more gaps of what happened to the rest of the gang as the season goes on... because i fear i am hooked...

I'm a trash tv watcher too but I don't watch those same shows. I wonder what attracts us to all that drama & mess?

I am an addict. I admit. Gossip Girl, Lipstick Jungle, Lost, The Hills, Housewives of any County.... And as I hate to admit - also Swingtown. My husband thinks I am crazy - but I love the show.

We think trash TV can be a lot of fun to watch and gossip about. And, yes, 90210 was about current issues during its time! :o)
