V.I.P.

This ("women in silly clothes with lots of gratuitous violence") was how Valerie Irons (Pamela Anderson) described a "movie" being made... obviously making fun of her own show. Truly, I always disliked Pam Anderson and have never really seen anything she's been in, but sometimes I am up very late and "V.I.P." is the only thing on. I expected to hate it, but instead found myself laughing at her [Pam Anderson's] antics. She is much funnier than I ever gave her credit for, and she, with this show, is really just making fun of herself. Who knew Ms. Anderson could be self-deprecating? This is not a show I would set my VCR to record, but if it's on and you're up, GO FOR IT! It's mindless, it's silly, but it can also be downright funny. Plus, it's great eye-candy. :-)

"V.I.P." is a great pickup for Pamela Anderson since leaving her "Baywatch" days behind. Pam in this series runs a security group with other women who are hired mostly to protect stars and celebrities. Molly Culver is very strong in this series and very sexy also she makes a great partner to Pam. "V.I.P." is one of those great series that is different from many others making it one to watch.

Like so many I know, I have little interest in any show with a high jiggle factor. I was prepared to hate V.I.P. I caught one episode to watch a guest star and found myself laughing and actually enjoying the show. V.I.P. comes at you on at least two different levels. On one, there is exciting action and uncomplicated plots typical of the A-Team: bad guys who do bad things always get caught by an eclectic team of good guys, each with special talents and rampant egos. On another level, there is glamour, glitz, ditz, jiggle, and jokes making fun of glamour, glitz, ditz, and jiggle, most at Miss Anderson's willing expense. I would recommend V.I.P. and ask that you give it a try. It's actually a fun show.

This show got some of the worst reviews that I have ever read, but it is one of my guilty pleasures. Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert did a show on Sneak Previews once called Guilty Pleasures, in this show they talked about movies that they were almost embarassed to admit that they liked. VIP is one of my guilty pleasures, I like to think that I am an intelligent person, I am a college graduate and have traveled all over the world in my military career, but I really loved watching the exploits of "the beautiful and lethal Vallery Irons!!!" People, this show was tongue in cheek and it was not meant to be taken seriously don't you realize that? Pamela Anderson is not the dumb bimbo people make her out to be, that is only the part she played. She is very intelligent and in fact was one of VIPs creators. She is a loving mother of two small children and needs all our prayers right now because she is battling a fatal liver disease. Pamela you brought me a lot of joy with your wonderful show and I wanted to thank you, forget about what all those other people have said. VIP was sort of like I Spy or The Man From Uncle. It took us into a world of glamour and excitement and it threw a lot of humor in along the way! Just relax and have a good time. I admit, Val was a ditz, but her heart was always in the right place.

I've been watching this show for a while now and I like it. It's not to be taken so seriously. They're more like comic book characters. It shows that Pamela Anderson Lee has a sense of humor. She's not a barbie doll. I think that's just envy talking. A lot of people said the same thing about Goldie Hawn and she's a good actress. She's beautiful, she can't help that. And finally, the show has gotten an emmy nomination and it's not because of the wardrobe.
