Ice Loves Coco

This reality television show about the former pink and his ex "top :ahem: 'Girl' turned wife is detrimental to society- especially the young women who are flipping through the channels and end up settling on this trash. The unconscious message sent to America is that all you need to do to land a TV deal is to have giant fake breasts/butts/lips/hair extensions/designer apparel and be married to someone with any form of celebrity. It doesn't matter if they do not have brains or what they had to do to themselves to get to the top. Sell your dignity to strangers? That's okay! It will all pay off! No talent? No problem! I remember being in the hospital for a week and I came across the episode where she wanted to be a singer. She went into the studio and started moaning orgasmically into the microphone before breathily moaning "shoes! I love my shoes!" Thanks to Jessica Simpson for paving this road that gets trashier and trashier throughout the years.

Bruce and Kris Jenner should take some notes from Ice T and Coco. Last week's episode about Hurricane Sandy related to those of us who lived without power for eight days on average. Ice and Coco's relationship is quite enduring. They mutually respect and care about each other and it's obvious with their relationship. I was probably hesitant about watching them myself but I preferred to watch them who come across as likable and real to me.

C'mon people. Why do we need another talk show starring people who have absolutely nothing of substance, intelligence (or interest) to add to the public discourse? And frankly, I'm not interested in looking at a peroxide version of the Kommercial Kardashian Klan for an hour every day: i.e., kosmetically enhanced out-sized boobs/butt in clothes that are 2 sizes too small. Yuk! This sort of programming is classless, uninteresting, uninspired and, frankly, old. Next???

We can and should do better with daytime TV. Not every celebrity ought to have a talk show. My suggestion to Fox: find some talented, knowledgeable, fascinating and articulate folks for your next talk show. They don't have to be celebrities and they don't have to be plastic surgery creations who look like fake Barbie dolls. But they DO have to be INTERESTING. How hard is that?
