Doot Doot Doot Doot Doot Doot-This is the Amber Show. Hi, this is Amber and this is Amber and this is the Amber Show...and if you recognize this line at all then you too have been wasting your life Tuesday nights at 10pm for the last 10 weeks or so.
Now for those of you who don't know (or are too ashamed to admit if you do), The Bad Girls Club is a trusty little gem of a reality TV show on the Oxygen channel's weekly line up. Now what else is on Oxygen's line up, I wouldn't be able to tell you, but they seem to have a winner with this one. The Bad Girls Club, in its 3rd season and moving quickly towards a 4th, is really a show about some girls who fight too much, f*ck too much, and probably have no friends in real life because if they did they would not be ALLOWED to come on TV and perform as the imbeciles they appear to be. The recipe is a classic mix that doesn't seem to need any changes at this point: Take
- 7 women with personality problems (aka Bad Girls) that want to be on TV
- Put them in a beautiful house with no supervision or rules
- Tell them that they are here to do better with their lives (don't explain what this means or assist in the process)
- At night, escort them to every bar and club in LA while paying for all drinks
- Install a vending machine full of sex toys (a Season 3 addition that was waaaaaay overdue)
- Sit back and watch as the girls break down into cliques/crews {not unlike every major stage of a woman's life anyway...think about it...Kindergarten-Death, you gotta have a crew}. And when the girls aren't screwing random men they meet at the club, or the beach, or the front door...
- Enjoy the miscellaneous fighting over:
- The simple: Ex. Juice (Season 2: Tanesha vs. Jennavecia)
- The complicated: Ex. Respect (Season 1: Ty vs. Aimee)
- And the Unintelligible: Ex. Being too drunk to notice escalating anger (Season 3: Amber M. aka Cookie vs. Most of the Fab Five)
Now truthfully the Season Finale went as expected...
- The girls cried "I've never had girl friends before and now I have all these girls in my life"
- Talked about how much they'd grown "10 weeks ago I would have cut you up and thrown you in the pool for that comment",
- Discussed how they were going to miss each other "F*ck you, you dumb b*tch, you need Jesus". Really??? Can you advise someone to look to a higher being after dropping the F* bomb? Maybe, that's all you can say to de-escalate such a situation...
- Took inappropriate pictures of themselves (for old time's sake) and destroyed the house (cause they're not paying for the damage)
- And last, but not least, what happened in Cancun, did not stay in Cancun as it was revealed that one of the cast members who had been refraining from sleeping with a male on the show, totally screwed a random guy in a pool in Mexico....ehh, you win some you lose some I suppose.
Anyway, I'll be back next week taking a look at another winner from the VH1 network, Tough Love...in the words of the Bad Girls,
See ya Bitches!!!
