Too Much TV For Me!

I have been watching too much late night television these days. After working all day I have something that keeps me up for most of the night. I guess you can say it is the light that stays on, and the television that keeps running.

I know watching so much television is bad for me. It really makes the brain cells disappear into a land where they can never be found again. I mean it could be worse. I could be from Memphis, I’d kill myself if I were. However, back to this television thing. In the late evening a smorgasbord of shows come on, that normally I would not watch, but I like to look for things to complain about.

Like this one show; Designing Women. What the hell was this crap?



I gave this show a shot. I figured it was one of those progressive shows from the 80’s and 90’s. what I found out that this show is pure tee shit. Nothing more than a shit load of big words, put together to make them sound like they are saying something. But when you get to the end of it, you find out that it was just bullshit. Like I guess the one you would call the main character. The one that was Mr. Drummond’s wife on Different Strokes. I watched at least 2 weeks of this crap, and every single show, this broad makes a ranting speech about nothing. Just makes you want to wish that David Hasselhoff would come from no where and tell her to shut the fuck up. And then Kitt would drive through the wall, running her over, killing her instantly, and at the same time ripping off the clothes of the skinny Delta Burke and the other chick. I guess this election season is getting to me, and the chick sounds like Clinton. And who wants to hear that shit?


Not me. Luckily, I figured out to use my remote. It takes me using two hands because its broke as hell, but damnit, now I can turn to some other bullshit to complain about.


Like this shit.



Now, don’t get me wrong, this show is a classic. I will forgive the fact that I don’t think I ever saw any people of color on the show. Being that this dude was Cuban doesn’t mean anything. When have you ever met a Cuban that admitted to being a person of color? Going once….Twice……Sold! Never.

This guy was the ultimate hater. As talented as his wife was, albeit a fuck up, he never let her get any shine. Damn shame to. But that isn’t the point here. The point is that he was garbage. I watched and watched. He couldn’t play the damn Congo drums. The shit was always off step. I would listen with a good ear. Nothing impressed me Rick! And the singing. I had to research this shit, and come to find out, he actually did sing. There must have been a shortage of talent in those days. Cant play the damn drums, and it isn’t like he needed sticks. Hell, I can still bust out the beginning of purple rain with my right hand, in perfect harmony. I watched closely, and it seemed as though his band want wanted to whup his off key ass after the show.

Yes, I have too much time on my hands it seems. That isn’t the case though. I don’t know what the case is though, when I find out, I will let you know.



THE most overrated show in history in my humble opinion. I really tried to watch this show and see what all the hub bub was about. This shit wasn’t funny to me. I don’t know why, everyone else seemed to think it was.

I guess I like my television white people to be rich, and depressed over regular white people on television stuff. You know, the Porsche has a scratch, the pool boy drowned in the hot tub and now you have to sprinkle coke on him to not catch a case.

Funny though, I did read that they won the lottery or some shit and got out the slums or whatever. Now that’s how I like my white folks, rich and void of any concern of others.
