Is April Here Yet?

March premieres have been a bit disappointing. I was so excited and The Return of Jezebel James because I am a huge fan of creator Amy Sherman-Palladino (Gilmore Girls) and actors Parker Posey (Indy Comic Queen), Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under) and Scott Cohen (Gilmore Girls). It was a colossal disappoinment. Parker was so over the top, which is usually why I love her, but she failed to create an actual personality for her character. Obviously Fox agreed since they pulled the plug earlier today.

The Bachelor has become the worst representation of America since George Bush. For some reason the women on this season believe they are actually trying to impress the Brit. Piers Morgan from America's Got Talent not Matt Grant. Every other season there has been at least one girl accused of being on the show to further her career. This season the question is who isn't on the show to further her career? From tearing open a beer can with her teeth to not one, not two, not three, not four, but five "musical" performances in the first two episodes makes me think these "ladies" have accidentally shown up on the wrong show set. The saddest part of the musical performances is that the girl who claims to be a "professional singer/songwriter" was possibly the worst of all the performances.

The other thing that baffles me about this show is why there is always a girl who claims she doesn't understand how she got there and why she is there since normally she is the one receiving the roses, hundreds of them according to this seasons Shayne. If you have stooped to furthering your career in competition with 20+ other women for one guy who statistically has less chance of ending up with you (even if you are chosen in the end) than your getting hit by a car walking down the street then you have more to concern yourself with then the fact that you used to be the one getting "hundreds" of roses.

I can't wait for the return of the real shows.
