kybearfuzzWell, I just watched my first “reality” television show in the “Surreal Life.” I admit that I was surprised that I enjoyed it, only because it was so silly it was entertaining. It’s like watching a train wreck happen repeatedly. I actually took notes during this show because some of the lines coming from these people were ironic as hell. I’ve broken down my opinions and lines for each of them below. Ladies first….
Tammy Faye Messner
“I don’t understand Ron’s line of work..” Bless her heart, she should call up Jim Bakker and ask him. She comes across as a simple girl, one who got into her mother’s make-up and put it on… in the dark. The sight of her shoving her fingers in her ears at the mention of a curse word perpetuates that odd image. Her preaching would get on my nerves. The sight of her belly dancing will be the cause of many nightmares for me. She’s the Cindy Brady of the group apparently.
Trishelle
“I don’t put up with ridiculous people…” Gonna be a long show for her then. Her foul mouth is impressive, but I admire her ability to stand up for herself. I never saw “Real World: Las Vegas,” but I’m sure she was like a female Puck. She’s sharing a room with Ron Jeremy, not many women can say that… oh wait.. after 1750 porn films, many women probably can. She stood up well against Tracie Bingham’s diva like behavior. I see here as Jan Brady with more backbone and a tolerance for booze. I expect to hear, “Tracie, Tracie, Tracie…”
Tracie Bingham
“I’m so confused. I can’t think straight…” From this diva wanna-be, I’m not surprised. She can’t take a bath in a raspberry-colored bathtub. She thought she’d get her own room and her own closet and her own attached bathroom. She warmed up after the first night. She also said, “Oh my God, I’m gonna throw-up.” Well, as a model, it’s not like she’s not accustomed to it. If she doesn’t like it, she may need to get a new agent.. Obviously, she’s the Marcia of the team.
Rob “Vanilla Ice” Van Winkle
Well, he didn’t say anything remotely humorous, he was just an ass. Every crowd needs one, I guess, to keep things interesting. No talent then, no talent now. The tale of the human race being sent here by aliens screams of too many drugs. No shock there. I expect everyone will get sick of him. He’s throwing a Bobby Brady tantrum every 15 minutes.
Ron Jeremy
“I want to see Tammy Faye eat sausage..” A line when they were shopping for food, but the double meaning is intentional. Not surprising, considering this man holds the world record for starring in the most porn movies at 1750 films. Strangely, he strikes me as being the most intelligent of the group and the most likable. I’m sure he’s fighting the porn star image, especially with the ladies. He may have a chance with Trishelle, but not with anyone else. We will be seeing more blurred images of his rear and his front over the next few episodes. Naturally the size of his stuff was mentioned. For living up to an image, he’s definitely our Peter Brady.
Erik Estrada
No quotes for him, but he strikes me as being a gentleman of sorts, but I picture his resolve will crack later on. He gives up his room to Tammy Faye. I saw his toupee move in one scene. He’s bedding down with Vanilla Rob. I feel sorry for him there. He’s the former heartthrob and the most mature of the group, I think. Obviously, he has to be our Greg Brady.
Well, that’s my unsolicited breakdown. Not sure where the Brady relation came from, but they strangely fit. I will be watching again, I’m embarrassed to admit. Who knows what happens next.
