on the pop culture tv note...i was crushed with the season finale of mtv's real world/road rules battle of the sexes show, not only because the women lost, but because it meant the end of the my favorite daily entertainment. the kicker of the mtv shows is that each episode is played once in the series prime time slot, and then at least 5 other times in that week. and then the longer the series runds, the more re-run episodes a week. for some reason the real world - road rules battle of the sexes challenges entertained me so much while i would work every day. it's so much easier to duct tape with the tv going.
i didn't think anything could replace my favorite brain numbing show (barring the required daily dose of surprise by design and tnt reruns of law and order and nypd blue...
but luckily mtv has come through again with...
surf girls, a sufer girl contest / real tv show following 16 surfer girl contestants (ages 17-23ish) as they vie for one bid to some pro surfer competition, prevent themselves from being sent home and try to overcome the intense emotional experience of the 6 week episode. well, let me just tell you that i can't wait to see the third episode! it's hilarious and goofy and these girls are an interesting mix. that's all i will say about that. but it's just one of those things that i can watch and watch and watch...it also is giving me a bit more indepth knowledge about women's surfing...which is building upon my extensive surfing knowledge built upon the facts i learned from watching blue crush. more to come, but watch mtv monday at 10.30 for the show.
