Why am I watching "Battle of the Network Reality Stars"? Why?
You've lost your remote control and are temporarily paralyzed, can't get up and change the channel and you have no helper monkey to do it for you?
You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
You feel you must be punished for your sins?

These people are insane.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I loved that show when I was a kid. Are they making them climb over the big padded wall? 'Cause that rocked.

Yeah, they're doing all sorts of reminiscing and showing clips of the old version.

They have Omarosa as a correspondent, interviewing Jonathan, who was apparently quite an asshole on TAR. (I didn't watch.)
I think my TV might be turning into a black hole of evil.
Now there's a dunk tank.

I'm hoping that they play "Simon Says." That was always my favorite event from the original Battles.

I mute the TV whenever He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named (tm TWoP forums) starts flapping his yap. It is amusing to see how much he's annoying the other participants, though. (And his wife/doormat, Victoria, is surprisingly athletic.)

Oh, my god, the guy doing the play-by-play is the guy who did the play-by-play for American Gladiators.
Not that I used to watch it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think you've been trapped in the crap TV event horizon longer than half an hour, Dana.
