Weekend Wrap-Up

It is perhaps television's finest hour: Flavor of Love- Charm School. Last night's episode was phenominal. The girls were divided into two groups and had a formal "debate" (the topic was some nonsense about which side should be kicked off the show). The insults flew and the Cattiness-o-Meter was deep into the red. Even the host, Mo'nique, got in some broad's grill. After the debate, they made the mistake of letting the girls go to a bar, where of course they got drunk, grinded on some guys and nearly had a fight. Then someone unfortunately got voted off. According to the previews for next week, apparently someone got called (and I quote) a "white bitch". This show is like The Facts of Life on crack and extacy.

It was proceeded by Celebrity Fit Club, which is perhaps television's second greatest hour. They played clips of Screech from Saved by the Bell talking trash behind everyone's back. Cletus T. Judd discussed the possibility of whipping his ass, Da Brat insulted him some more, and Kimberley Locke just shredded him. She talked about his fake porn tape and how he tried to sell t-shirts to make his house payment. Then he walked off like a baby. He said his "true fans" would understand. Awwwww, I really don't think he knows. Kind of sad in a way. But not really. Also, 50 year old Marcia Brady almost beat Warren G in a boat race. Where else are you going to find humiliation like this?

I managed to clear out some time from my busy schedule to catch a showing of SpiderMan 3 this weekend. Some of the reviews were kind of negative, but I really liked it. Sure there was too much talking and crying throughout the movie, but there was enough action, humor and special effects to make up for it. I thought Eric from That 70's Show was pretty good. I halfway expected Donna to come down to the basement and start berating him for wearing the black suit. Also, when is Peter Parker going to give up on this Mary Jane gal and go after Ursula, the girl who lives across the hall? I have a feeling that he already is but they just aren't showing us. I'm sure there is going to be a part four, but they have seemingly used up all of the villians now. Maybe next time he can take on The Joker or King Kong Bundy.

It looks like we are one step closer to a reunion of my favorite 90's pop group, The Spice Girls. Last week, Posh Spice threw a huge birthday party for her husband, The Soccer Guy, and it was attended by Scary, Baby (who ironically is having a baby), and Ginger. No Sporty. Apparently they discussed getting back together and perhaps touring. It seem inevitable at this point. Can't wait for them to break out the Union Jack dresses and KISS sized high heels. Even though they surely won't be coming to the midwest, it's still exciting. Now if we could just get a Britney Spears reunion, everything would be grand.
