I Watched Entirely Too Much TV This Weekend

-Nanny 911. 'Nuff said.

-Lockdown! Women behind bars at South Carolina correctional facility. Many missing teeth. One roll of toilet paper per week, ew.

-Channel Thirteen show about Aretha Franklin. Holy Cannoli, she's smoking a cigarette! Granted, this was back when smoking was good for you. Also, did not know her dad was important Baptist minister, nor that she sang so often for M.L. King Jr. Coretta Scott King was so pretty back in the day. Footage of Aretha singing lame pop eary in her career while rhythmless white boys'n'girls jerkily dance around her quite amusing.

-Year of the Dog at Clairidge Cinema. Theater no longer has shaky cheese for popcorn, gyp! Molly Shannen is amazing and Oscar-worthy. Movie is just ok. Am already tired of Peter Saarsgaard.

-Fellowship of the Ring on TBS! Immediately need to see Two Towers and Return of the King.

-Is Aragorn sending Eowyn mixed messages? Or is Eowyn seeing what she wants to see? Decide both are true. Later speak with mom who says most of romance didn't exist in book.

-"I go to my Father's" - sniffle

-The Simpsons - Nappia parody. Eeeh. Simpsons are so over. Switch to:

-Shark Land! South African coast has many varieties of shark. WHOA! Seal and Shark and Bird on Sardine FEEDING FRENZY! Space out to nature for what seems like a long time.

-Masterpiece Theater! Story is about inbred English monarchy, pre-WWI. Son John is afflicted with seizures that render him gauche and tactless. Wait, maybe seizures render him autistic. Russian Monarchy portrayed as snotty white trash, as usual. Next week, War Changes Everything.

-As am drifting off to sleep, decide to watch much less TV in future.
