VH1

I love to watch VH1. There are a few shows that I absolutely will NOT watch (Flavor of Love, Celebrity Fit Club), but I enjoy a majority of their programming. VH1 seems to have the same effect on me as Taco Bell. All someone has to do it mention it, or turn it on (in this case) and I'm IN! Just last night I was walking from the kitchen to the laundry room by way of the living room where some show about some celebrity spending or something was on and I literally stood there and watched, almost in a trance-like state, for a good ten minutes. It's crazy and that happens a lot! When we got cable back this winter, that was the first channel I flipped to. Can you say I Love the 80's? Nothing got done around the house during the first week that aired! I was hooked/glued/glazed to the tube for hours and it still has that same effect on me now; even though I've already seen every episode. Is it possible that they put MSG in it somehow?

I enjoy the commentary on the shows, but I have to wonder why I couldn't do that. I'm just as, if not more so, funny as those guys and it's not like the average Joe would know those B-list people anymore than he would know me. I think that would be one of the best jobs around. Best Week Ever is high on the list of my favorite shows.

Here's another random thought that maybe you can help me understand. Why do manufacterer's (car, clothing, jewelry, etc) GIVE musicians/actors/athletes their products for free? That group of people could easily afford all the high-end, pimped-out versions of the products and yet, the makers hand them out to them. It doesn't make any sense to me. What are they going for?
