THE SIDEBAR


9.17.2002
Tuesday on the Tube TV is weird, man. Really fuckin' weird. Is it possible that the entire television industry can suffer a nervous breakdown at once? After warily reaching for the remote this Tuesday, I think we've got a resounding 'Amen!' going on here. Did Regis really say, "Watch me save the network for the second time!" while plugging his 'Live! Primetime' Special? Did the network really cut him off mid-sentence, or was that preplanned? Has David Lynch hired Alan Dershowitz yet to handle the copyright and style infrigment suit that is 'Push, Nevada'? Was the most innovative and heart-warming thing to appear on cable this year an Aeropostale commercial...that aired during the season premiere of 'The Real World'? Is it possible that a single cast member of the new 'Real World: Las Vegas' is straight? They ALL are! Then why is it they are doing the most bitchy, 'I wanna be on Melrose Place' antics EVER? What happened to this being the season of a return to 'traditional values'? What next? Is one of John Ritter's '8 Simple Rules..' for dating his teenage daughter, 'You must pose as a gay man to live with her and her plucky and vapid roomate.' Surely, this is the end of the world as we know it.
