I like to watch terrible television. Having children forced me to watch less terrible television in both quantity and quality. I can’t take back the years I watched, “Rock of Love” or even “Daisy of Love.” Regrets, I have a few. I did love my Top Chef and Project Runway years. Even Survivor was fun in the early years. Come to think of it, I watched the old TLC “A Love Story” and “A Baby Story,” these were truly terrible shows, ver boring.
Netflix currently has the second season of “Love is Blind.” Unlike my early years of terrible television, I now have this thing called “streaming,” and I have pretty much watched the whole thing in two days. I have a few thoughts:
- This group of millenials uses the words, “Like” constantly, like even more than like the valley girls of the like the 1980s, like really
- Constant cursing, f-bombs are apparently appropriate for pretty much any situation, even a family brunch or dress shopping with your grandmother!
- If you give people a constant flow of alcohol then they will “fall in love.”
- The lighting of the interviews in the “pods” made everyone look freakish.
- What was the deal with the golden goblets? Product placement for a future line of wedding tableware? ” There is a hilarious meme about the golden cups in this post!
- The music throughout the series is TERRIBLE, which probably means I am too old to be watching this show. There is also far too much Sal’s ukulele playing. But Caesar needs his own show.
- I won’t even get into Shaina’s cowboy hat…
I won’t spoil the results of the show, there plenty of ups and downs in this train wreck!
