I proudly present the newest commentary that I am writing.....THE HILLS. This show holds a huge place in my reality TV line-up in its second season, now that I can send props out to my cousin, who makes this show happen for us.
Here is my commentary from the first three weeks:
- Week 1 - Ok, here I go....(not that I noted my questions through the show or anything)Didn't Jason and Lauren break up off camera this summer? Why did they fight all the time? Because he is a loon maybe? What is Jason's daily past time? Being rich? No school? No nothing? Is Audrina only on the map because of this show? She has a new job? How ditzy is she really? (carryover comment from last season....she is PAINFUL) Do Whitney and Lauren really work in that closet? Is Lisa Love that bitchy, or does she not realize the PR her magazine is getting on this show?(COMMERCIAL BREAK) Spencer = LOSER (where did we find this cat?)How old are these kids? Live feedback--- SHUT UP! Wake up, new day, new date already? Oh wait,pick a new restaurant dude! He is a piece of work...can't wait to see if he is a bigger LOSER than Jason. LOVE the club drama! (COMMERCIAL BREAK)Pregnancy test...for real? I am fired up....I needed a new show to watch (that is funny for me to type let alone say out loud).
- Week 2 - So, I may be Super Bowl focused (GO COLTS!), but this week is more of a running commentary than a Q&A. I missed the beginning due to trying to keep my DVR cleaned up enough to catch my "normal" shows, and the fact that I now have 3 shows in the10-10:30 ET time-slot. Thank goodness for mtv overdrive and the re-running of the show throughout the week....As I watch Heidi, I keep thinking, have her teeth been that perfect all the time, or is this a season two upgrade with the huge paychecks she earns at her job that she miraculously loves now?I wonder, where is that guy that bossed Whitney and Lauren around last year? You would think that Lisa wouldn't be directly be giving the interns their tasks, unless Lisa isn't the hot shot she makes herself out to be, or she loves to see herself on TV.....The car conversation was a classic "check out my ride" moment for Spencer,or as we all like to call him now, "Spence". How MTV can get these people to tape these moments of their lives still befuddles me. But why wouldn't you want the world to know that Spence is "on Team Heidi". What else could a girl ever want?(and we are at commercial)Heidi's busting out a little name dropping; we have decided Lauren should date Mr. Brody Jenner. Good guy, Brody, is the perfect next step for Miss Conrad....gee, he is only linked to Nicole, Paris, and the ever fabulous(vomit) Kristin Cavalleri. What a catch (if you want drama)! Lauren, as your elder, when you go to work, it is a smart idea to wear a watch....can't you drive to Laguna and find one that is cute? "I don't wear watches" was priceless. And let's not even discuss the fact that she answered her phone while she was working....girlfriend, do you NOT see the chaos around you? Fortunately for you, Miss Paige wants to steal you from Lisa, so you lucked out.Audrina, Audrina, it appears that you might have caught on to the fact that Spence is playing you. I sighed with relief when you gave our buddy Spence the "buh-bye". Maybe there is hope for you yet, but you might want to find some more friends out by the pool. I don't think Heidi is going to let you be the star of her birthday bash. And it was nice of you to turn him down, because that meant that Heidi got asked out for dinner by her "boyfriend" (this is where actually using air quotes makes it much more enjoyable than typing them).We end our episode this week with a sweet first date between the ever-innocent son of Bruce Jenner, Brody, and Miss Lauren Conrad (and where does her wealth come from?) What a sweet moment....the staring, the fabulous dialog, the driving in the fancy car, the pixelated license plate, and the hug.....just like all first dates are. :) We leave this week with shots of LA traffic, props to MTV for spelling their producers' names correctly, and a glimpse of what will Lauren do about dear Brody? Sing us out Nelly Furtado!
- Week 3 - I think I am a little off this evening, I have both questions and commentary though.Let's start with the questions:This was 21st bday for Heidi, correct?Can Audrina really talk on two phones at the same time?Are there rules or regulations about showing these kids drinking when they are clearly underage? It seems like usually they have solid cups or empty cups, but not tonight.Is Brody that camera hungry that he hopped onto this show? Now the running commentary:Oh my gosh, I get to wear a tiara because I am so cool and it's my birthday. I hope to heavens this isn't a yearly thing.Loving that Brody Jenner is "Spencer's friend". Let's call it as we see it, I would crack up for it to say "Bruce Jenner's son". But I know it is only a matter of time before it is changed to "Lauren's boyfriend". The cuddling comments CRACKED me up. This kid has a rep, and it isn't for the cuddle factor. But let us rank Brody amidst all the other dark-haired wonders in LC's life: Stephen, Jason, and Brody....it is such a tough call. Sadly, I think she gets played times three. Maybe she should date a blonde guy."livin' in beverly hills" (I had to sing along)I also like that Jen resurfaced this year in full effect. She clearly missed her camera time last season. Please tell me she goes to school or something because she is too miserable to make it on this show.Whitney, the "good girl", acts as the lunch buffer. If I were her, I would live for the drama that she observes. I feel that she may be the only one that has her act together, unless she has some off-camera crazy life that isn't in this show, but awaiting her own spin-off.When I watch the club scenes, I feel that while I could never dress the part, I may make a good groupie. We got a glimpse of Brody's pad this week. He actually has a nice place....but I guess you have to, if you want to cuddle. HA! Oh, snap! I am out of time.
