Hello readers (do I have any of you left?)
I haven't visited this site in a very long time. And I am deeply sorry for my absence. I promise that I am going to recommit myself to blogging about my fav reality moments and of course keeping you posted on my reality.
To start I had a very successful year just teaching dance, and am a completely happy and energized person. This is very different from where I was a year ago. I was miserable in a job that kept me underpaid and overstressed. Now my friends, life is good!!!!
I have been seriously engrossed in my reality shows lately, and that's mainly because I've had a lot more free time. I can't lie but for those of you looking to escape your own reality you really should consider the over-the-top "reality" they show us on TV. My favorite channel for my reality dosage is of course BRAVO They have their finger on the pulse of what we want to watch. Whats not to love.
I'm definitely addicted to any of the Real Housewives shows. Of course my fav's are New York and New Jersey. What can I say I'm an East Coast girl all the way. Bethenny one of my favorite ladies from New York got her own spin off called Bethenny Getting Married?
One of my favorite ladies of comedy Kathy Griffin has her own show, My Life on the D List. She cracks me up, yet I am not sure I watch it to see her or to see her boxed wine loving mum Maggie. Maggie loves to TIP IT ;o)
Who can forget my other guilty pleasure Flipping Out. God I love Zoila the little house maid who constantly gives her boss a hard time.
Bravo definitely serves a great line up whether it be summer, fall, winter, or spring.
I guess you could say that my reality show addiction is a little to far fetched but its fun to see other peoples lives, because honestly it makes me very happy within my own life.
I've given up on MTV or VH1 producing any kind of good reality TV. MTV did have a series called 16 and pregnant which spawned another series called Teen Mom. I have mixed emotions about those two shows, because as MTV claims the series were meant to bring teenagers awareness about teen pregnancy and try to help prevent another outbreak of many young parents. However I see both sides the pros and the cons for this show, I have to think in the back of my head, some teenagers may want to get pregnant after watching this show...hey it could get them on a reality show after all....maybe I'm too pessimistic about teens. Maybe my view would change if I was exposed to it more.
You may wonder about other networks and if I watch their shows. I tried out Style channels Jerseylicious. A show that followed a Jersey hair salon, however I feel like it was just made up drama to pull us in. Speaking of Jersey, what is the fascination with Jersey, even MTV jumped on the Jersey bandwagon (please note Bravo you started it with your Jersey housewives...imitation is the best form of flattery remember) they started a show called Jersey shore. We met a bunch of tan loud drinking 20 somethings as they partied their summer away down at the Jersey shore. They had a small job to do and that was to work a beach store down on the boardwalk. I admit it I watched it, but it was like a car accident you had to look.
I've tried on many different shows but really only find myself enjoying the Bravo network. I am hoping to watch the shows each week, read the cast mates blogs and reflect back on here for anyone who cares to know my opinions.
I hope that I can keep up with this task and feel that if I give myself a whole week to do the watching and the reflecting I might actually get myself on a pattern of writing.
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer. I know I have lots of fun things planned, so don't worry I wont be glued to my TV and laptop all summer.
Happy Summer, see you all soon!!!!
