Three Days of TV, one Great Show

I spent the past three days on the couch, getting up only to refill my water glass and to go to bed.

Too sick to read, I watched -- or at least listened to semi-consciously -- a lot of Date My Mom, Made and My Fair Brady (seriously, Adrienne Curry, first winner of America's Next Top Model, shut up). And then there was The Flavor of Love.

I caught only one episode, and until checking I vaguely suspected that, high on Rite Aid brand Nyquil, I had made this show up. Because if I could create a show while taking Nyquil, I think this would be it.

Flava Flav lives in a house with a bunch of women who are too young for him and tries to find true love. In the one I caught, Brigitte Nielsen shows up to help out her old Foofy Foof, described by one BET message board user as a "little burnt up Ninja Turtle." (It's obvious that these two are still love. What they had was real!)

I only wish I had had the strength and good sense to open my eyes.

i was at leroy's house a week or so ago and we ended up watching that show. how flavor flav launched back into the general consciousness is beyond me.

even more mystifying -- that these women are dying to be picked by the burnt ninja turtle.

...he is funny tho. glad you're somewhat on the mend!
