Reality midget groom
I was flipping through the half dozen channels I can get for free through the rabbit ears sitting on top of my television. And then I stumbled across the atrocity known as "The Littlest Groom." A bunch of two-foot-tall women were parading past an equally short guy who, at one point, told the camera, "I'm not a flirt. I'm a ladies man." Um, no thanks.What on earth are these crazy television producers thinking? No, a better question is, what makes them come up with these loony ideas? There was Temptation Island, or "Let's Break Up Couples!" There's The Apprentice, or "Let's Make More Snobs." There's My Big, Fat, Obnoxious Fiance, or "Let's Find a Wanna-be Actress Who Can't Act" (though I do have a valid reason to watch it tonight and next week). There are the Bachelor and Bachelorette shows, or "Let's See If We Can Talk People Into Getting Married On National Television." And there's Average Joe, or "Let's Make Fools Out of People Who Have Already Been Made Fun of For Their Whole Lives." That last one bothers me a lot. Why? Because I've gone and gotten into watching it. I blame that entirely on several people who happen to work at a certain police department.
Anyway, I don't know where I'm going with this. I guess I'm just joining the masses of people who blast reality shows, yet somehow wind up watching at least part of them. But at least I can say I'm not interested in The Littlest Groom show. I'm not even going to find a link for it, even though this is a weblog and weblogs are supposedly depositories for links.
