Guily Pleasures?
I've seen a few friends' blog postings going around lately concerning their "guilty pleasures." So I thought about it, and mine are mostly about TV and movies. So here goes.
Dave's Top 5 TV/Movie Guilty Pleasures
- South Park. No question about it. I still remember the first episode of South Park I ever watched. This was in 1996, back before it was ever picked up by Comedy Central. Matt Stone and Trey Parker originally made a crude cartoon to act as a sort of Christmas card. The episode was "Jesus versus Santa Claus." As a freshman in college, I was tremendously offended and thought the show was perhaps the devil. Recently, I've been watching a good deal more of it, and my opinion has shifted. I don't think the show is Jesus or anything, but it's pretty good. I like it cause they make fun of anything and everything. No holds barred. Just last night they made fun of Scientology and Tom Cruise. I wonder how long it will take the Scientologists to sick their lawyers on Matt & Trey. Oops. Did I just say something bad about those Scientology idiots? Shoot. I mean, uh, I love them and all their crazy whacked out celebs. I mean... ah... Tom Cruise is a great actor. Anyone see Magnolia? That was a great movie.
- My Name is Earl - This is a new show on Tuesday nights that comes on just before The Office. I was a bit annoyed the first time I saw it, but now the lovably stupid characters have grown on me. Reminds me a bit of 'King of the Hill' cause they're all just hicks. I love hicks. I was a hick. Perhaps 'am' is the correct tense there... Heck, I even use the word 'folks' now. A lot.
- Really bad Sci-Fi - Okay, I admit, I'm a huge fan of really really bad Sci-Fi. The worse the better. Ain't nothin like curling up with a warm blanket and watching some guy with a muscle shirt and thin arms open up a can of, um, alien repellant. That makes me think of a great title for a sci-fi movie - AliANT. You know, part 'alien' and part 'ant'. I should give them a call... Anyone know the number for the SciFi chanel?
And this concludes my Top 5 TV/Movie Guilty Pleasures.

Yes, dangit. Don't you see all of them? Sheez. You'd think people could count.

There are three kinds of people in the world. Those who can count, and those who can't.
