I must say both serve the same purpose. You put *junk* in them.

"That's because Simple Life was quality television. You put all the time and effort into finding someone with star quality like that, two of them no less, and you get magic. I mean, the chemistry between NIcole and Paris? Phenomenal. With all the research, dedication, and effort put into that show by Fox execs I'm surprised..."


..Not to mention the really excellent special effects and writing on the show.. who wouldn't want that DVD sittin' on their video shelf? (sic)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Heaven knows that's true, what with the vacuous, rich, snotty punks who get to bed those two tramps every night...


They can have my "Firefly" DVDs when they pry them from my cold, dead fingers....

That article is too funny. The author left out a few shows, like "Survivor", that stupid model show on UPN that they cancelled "Jake 2.0" to air ceaselessly (talk about cruel and unusual), "My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiancé", "The Bachelorette", oh God, no more, no more, no more...

I read this whole thread and my mouth is still hanging open--they put that show on DVD? Huh?! I can't imagine why anyone would buy it.

And as for the theory that it's to jack off to Paris Hilton it seems to me the twenty seconds of Inara bathing would be far more of a turn-on then ANYTHING with Paris Hilton. I would think the mythological scene of Jayne bathing would be more of a turn-on--Paris Hilton is yuck.

You should check out the rest of the site, it's got some good stuff...and yes, some of it was written by me.

I felt like half of my brain cells died from just watching the commercial for "The Simple Life". If some people out there actually made it through an entire episode of that travesty Fox has the absolute gall to call entertainment, without turning into a vegetable, then they are stronger than me.

I don't even watch Fox anymore. I've given up on "The Simpsons" and "That 70's Show" because I can't stand the thought that I might be helping that network in any way.

Both those shows jumped the shark a while back anyway.

That's good to know. But I wouldn't care if they hadn't, I refuse to watch Fox.
