While most people get down on summer TV and its less-than-stellar lineup, as each week passes more and more 'quality' shows are kicking in (this observation is pretty easy since I find myself with excess time here in Sac Town more often than not).Now I don't know why I have such an affinity for trashy TV. Maybe I associate shows like FOX's 'Hell's Kitchen,' and MTV's 'Rob and Big' with last summer, when Tim and I passed the slow time in Athens laughing at the laundry list of expletives, amazingness and more these respective shows showcased. Eventually I stopped caring enough to explain to people why to watch these shows, I just made them watch, then watched them become hooked as well.
Now for the record, Man vs. Wild starts back up again tonight. Those of you who know me should know that I think that Bear Grylls is the man. If you dropped me in the middle of Ohio with a flint and a water bottle, you would find me curled up in the fetal position soon after. Drop me in the middle of the desert, or a volcano...and then ask me to drink the excess moisture from elephant poo to survive well-- that's why I idolize Bear Grylls.
Check out Man vs. Wild if you never have (Friday -- 9 p.m., Discovery). You shan't regret it.
