"Skating" with disaster
On January 19, 2006, the nadir of television will be upon us. "Skating with Celebrities" begins on the Fox network. Who here thinks this should be called "Skating with Disaster"? Hell, the SwC website even bills itself as a "trainwreck on ice"! (Skating with Celebrities) You know this is going to be a tough sell when in the promos, the only "celebrity" they tell us about is Todd Bridges of Dif'rent Strokes and Los Angeles County Correctional system fame.
It's only saving grace may be that my girl Deborah (please go back to Debbie) Gibson is on the show. I will make it a point to watch just for her.
But who came up with this show anyway? Maybe it was the same guy who came up with "Manimal" (premiered Oct 11, 1983, canceled Dec 17, 1983).
And who will be watching these also-ran personalities and also-ran skating personalities? Anyone brave enough to watch this stuff must be a very sad type of star-struck. Or maybe just very lonely.
To anyone who will watch this (except to see Deborah) I say this: Get a life!
