there are many shows that are representative of the shameless extravagance of the current american culture (human nature?), but extra may take the cake (and eat it too)... wait, another cake analogy may be just around the corner... yes, marie antoinette, the epitome of let them eat cake" is the obscene pleasure extra portrays in pretentious drama and gleeful bliss (ignorance) as that ridiculous enigma of fame and fortune summed up in the ultimate single word oxymoron (yes, it takes the mind of god to understand it all), celebrity, all dressed up and nowhere to go...
the height of eye candy and over-stating the obvious, the only thing missing is the hype that extra is must see tv, but wait, trademarks, copyrights, and all that jazz keeps is all tied up in court paying lawyers to continue giving us reasons to believe our lives are ever so important, i mean, we must be important, just look at all the money they are spending...
cynical much?... ah, it's beyond all that and commercials too, it's unreal passing as the reality that everybody is told they want so often that they believe it and must have it and long for it and sell their soul, if they could, just for a taste of the cake (what, you thought the cake was all gone?)...
hey, eye candy is fun, but waiting a half hour for craig ferguson to come on and get real (wink wink) can get annoying, ya know? (what's that, who's sleeping on the job?)... lol lam lal laa...
narf :)
