in terms of being COMPLETELY IRRESISTIBLE is:<\/p>\n
The one two Vh1 punch of:<\/p>\n
1. My Fair Brady
\n2. Breaking Bonaduce<\/p>\n
People. Honestly. This is unbelievable. This is absolutely addictive. It MUST be watched.<\/p>\n
I cannot turn away. I watched both again last night, agog. I tried to do other things during My Fair Brady … but finally could NOT focus on anything else. I was SO INVOLVED in Adrienne’s family … I was emotionally invested <\/i>… I was angry at Peter Brady for being arrogant … he deserved the bitch-slap he got ….<\/p>\n
And I actually wept a tear during one of the therapy sessions on Breaking Bonaduce.<\/p>\n
I know it’s … well, never mind. I won’t judge any of this – because if you constantly say “I know it’s pathetic, but –” or “I know this is embarrassing, but …” about certain things – frankly that’s not very good writing. Stop apologizing.<\/p>\n
So I’ll just come flat out and say it.<\/p>\n
For what it is – and the genre it is – Breaking Bonaduce<\/i> is GREAT television. It’s not I Love Lucy<\/i> or All in the Family<\/i> or whatever – but it’s not trying to be. It’s reality television. Of the starkest kind. And … it just … you cannot look away. It is GREAT television.<\/p>\n
Yup. I said ‘great’. I’m tellin’ ya. If the definition of entertainment (or one of the definitions) is that it should be “riveting”, and should hold your attention – oh my God. Breaking Bonaduce<\/i> is one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen.<\/p>\n
I am hooked.<\/p>\n
And the two shows being back to back … fuggedaboutit. Count me in.<\/p>\n
Can’t wait til next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
