My TV's been broken for a couple of weeks, now, and all I'm missing is PBS. The hospital has cable, and I was watching some stuff while waiting for Hubby, and I kept turning it off because I couldn't find anything. There was an ad for something called Hostile Makeover. Reality shows disturb me.
I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The only reason I know anything about Jon, Kate et al (does it disturb anyone else that nobody knows the names of the 8 kids?) is that they get heavily advertised when I'm watching Mythbusters or Dirty Jobs or Time Warp, or Intervention or a bunch of other nonfiction series on the NF channels.
Plus, I have a TiVo.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh.
Although maybe WWII wouldn't have sucked as much if Germany had done a Hostile Makeover of Poland instead of invading it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I know the names of the eight kids, but I have watched the show. I think it's a miracle that anyone survives having eight children, let alone twins and sextuplets, and I'm sorry for the family.

Having 8 the usual way usually means they're not ALL in diapers at the same time, and usually you can get the oldest kids to be taking some care of the younger ones.
I wonder how the Octomom's poor litter is doing, and would pray (if I believed) that they are doing better than I expect.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
It's definitely summer here. (Temps in the 90s, lots of humidity.)

That's not a reality show, it's the second Fashion Crimes murder mystery on LMN, starring Maggie Lawson from Psych.
Yes, I know this because Kavan Smith has been in heavy rotation on the channel this month and I compulsively record everything he appears in.

Trust my rage
I wish they had more background - like, mentally where is she? I'm just curious if mentally she ages/develops.
