I don't know how many TV channels a cable subscriber here receives, but if the advertising is anything to go by I know I wouldn´t be buying into it.
Sadly the sixth final series of the 'L Word' is now in the can and out on DVD, and we can only imagine the possible futures of Bette, Tina, Shane et al in sunny California. However some bright spark has come up with a spin off which is due to start shortly in the USA 'The Real L Word' - Yep it's one of those terrible 'reality' shows. I use the word 'reality' very loosely, as what they should be called is 'hamming it up and wanting to be infamous shows'. The recipe for this one is take six shallow lesbian dolly birds and follow them through life's trials and tribulations in the dating world. They are of course all white, have smiles like Liberace and and look as tanned as Pamela Anderson on Baywatch - if that's reality the director is on drugs.
My second non-recommendation is for something equally annoying if not for different reasons, although I admit that after a few beers it might be amusing - 'Dance your A** Off'. It's going to be a bit like The X Factor, but obviously just for delusional dancers. Call me a cynic, but when the recent Oil disaster caused by BP only hit the front page of the Newspapers here in New York this last week, the words 'mushrooms', 'shit' and 'dark' came to mind. Maybe repeats of 'Only Fools and Horses' aren´t so bad after all?
