A rare occurrence indeed, but today we have come to the end of another wonderful moment in the calendar year. A long weekend. So what did I do with part of my Monday off? Watch TV, of course. It’s been a while since I spent some time with my friends Oprah, Phil, Days and Reckless. All good friends indeed. However, it’s nice to revisit with some friends that I hadn’t seen in years. I had no idea that the powers-that-be were showing Queer Eye at noon everyday. At least I’m presuming it’s everyday.
Nice to see Carson is still pushing the Roberto Cavalli. I think I know of someone who’s been taking note. Can you? Ted’s been double dipping a bit with the American version of Iron Chef. Thom, the “Design Doctor” as he is referred to, is the main reason I watch the show. I think I’m a closet interior design voyeur. But that man works miracles. He really does. There’s Jai, the little puppy character, that doesn’t seem to do anything. Does anyone remember, for 3 seconds, there was a black guy that replaced Jai? He looked like Carter from ‘Spin City’. There may have been a lawsuit or two. I’ll spare you from the Carson/fashion tie-in I was thinking of making there. And then there’s the grooming guy. I don’t know why, but he just bothers me. Maybe it’s the product. But he is just too groomed. I bet he’s just a Ken doll from the neck down. I’m putting him in the same category as Dannii Minogue. She has to use two i’s. One for each silicon pouch. Each is its own entity.
Sorry, I digress. So in today’s episode they had a Gym teacher (translation: PE teacher). The man looked like Ricky Gervais. It was like Queer Eye meets Extras. Just without so much of the awkwardness and inappropriate comments. No, no, my mistake, there were inappropriate comments. Such as when plastic fantastic, Kyan, suggested when Ricky (can’t remember his real name so Ricky it is) goes golfing that he finds somewhere with a day spa for his wife. So once he had finished his 18 holes (you can see where this is going, can’t you?), that they have something to eat and drink for the 19th and go on to the 20th. These gays. This is why they shouldn’t be in the military, allowed to marry or adopt. In fact let’s revoke their right to vote. That’ll learn ‘em. So much inappropriateness, not enough time. Well, it was lovely to catch up with my homies. Hope y’all have had a great Labour Day long weekend too.
