By the way,
I AM going to watch the Oscars tonight. Yes, like most viewers of this annual display of tripe, I rarely see a movie on the list of nominees.
I do however, and this is important, love to watch the fashion. Such things are of great import as this female sees it.
But if they start with their political crap I suppose I will turn it off.
A bunch of nothing-burgers telling me how to think.
Spare me.
And since we’re talking TV, it’s later in the thread, indulge me....my thoughts:
-the handsomest male character is Lucifer. That guy looks like a man should.
-my favorite commercial is the running of the bulls, where the bull dogs come chasing the men and one falls down to be licked to titanic fear.
-my favorite quirky new show is Bull. Love the idea; wonder if it’s really done.
-discovered a show about the incredible world of Dr. Pol, on Nat-Geo....a station associated with Fox as I kind of am to understand.
-Loved the rescue dog show!!! Loved Loved. I am a person who has always had rescue pets and this show was a big hit. Many people I spoke too also adored it.
My favorite category was the “wiggly butt”. They had a Chihuahua come out to greet its owner and its butt moved so fast and hard that it couldn’t stand upright!
Also, the snoring and kissing category.
Just biding time till lunch...
You and Grandma....and for exactly the same reasons.
I'll pass along the suggestion I made to her all those long years ago: Treat them like all other "entertainment" posing as something meaningful and leave the sound off.
I started that trick with Monday Night Football after exactly two weeks of Howard Cosell. (Although I recall some less enlightened sports fans who would pay to go to a sports bar where the winner of the nightly pool got to heave a brick through the TV when HOW-aaaard got on his Halftime Talkathon....)
