Okay, so.
I’m always at a serious loss as to what to write in this here window. It’s kind of my own fault. I’m a little uncomfortable talking about myself. I don’t want to seem vain or self centered or you know, stupid. It kind of makes me feel silly to try to write about my life because most days I feel like the events in my life don’t really matter much to anyone outside looking in. Which is probably true. I digress. The fabulous Chibi pointed me to this little list of writing prompts called “30 Days of Shamelessness”. It seems a little bit more fun and light-hearted than the 30 days of Truth that I started, you know, a year ago.
My first prompt is for me to declare my love for an uncool tv show. Okay. Let me see. Well, here my super analytical brain has already started in on “Well, what exactly defines a tv show as being uncool?” Is it poor ratings? a high level of cheese? a show that nobody ever seems to talk about? I would reach into something from the past, like say, Blossom. Blossom is a show I’ve written about before, but I feel like at this point everyone LOVES Blossom just because it’s “ironic” in that Alanis Morrissette way that nobody can quite figure out. Also Mayim Bialik is in that Big Bang show that everyone except me and Robert seem to love. Most of my childhood shows have this same problem. They are loved for their nostalgia. So here I go. Let’s try something different.
What’s in my netflix? What am I watching that I might not tell people about? What do I enjoy that meets my previously stated criteria of not so great ratings (that I am aware of), a high level of cheese, and something I don’t think I’ve ever seen mentioned on Twitter?? I think I’ve finally landed on something. I’m getting something. I’m getting…I’m getting….
Okay. I’m not really sure if this show meets the criteria of being UNCOOL because I obviously totally love it. I giggle myself silly almost every episode. And, a show that featured a song by Band of Horses in the 4th season can’t be all that uncool. I give up. I don’t like uncool things. Everything I like is totally awesome and that’s my final answer.
PS: It really doesn’t hurt that the cast of that show is just so darn nice to look at!
PPS: My inner blogger is yelling “COP OUT! COP OUT! YOU SUCK!”
PPPS: Maybe I should have wrote about Ally McBeal.
