how to lose your brain in 5 steps


Sunday. In most cases it is a free-of-any-important-work day and an excellent excuse to lie down in front of a TV watching ‘some good stuff.’ If you expect (naively) to watch ‘some good stuff’ on MTV channel, then you will be not prepared (and therefore more prone to it) for the crap, that this music television is offering us (as the break between the ads). I’ll present you a short guide of the most idiotic, brainless, and, at the same time, the most popular shows appearing currently on MTV:

1) My Own… - To this program people come with mental disorders (in love with a famous singer) who pick their ideal ‘sweetheart’ (ideal - namely Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Doda, etc) from the bunch of unknown youngsters resembling him/her (in about 0,01%). What is really funny is that they absolutely believe that this Chinese boy  is almost like P. Diddy and this little chubby girl is a next Ciara. But (!) it is not that easy to pick one lover – the participants have to go through different competitions, show their videos (where they explain what is so special about them), and finally sing something. While the first parts are almost bearable, the last one is a rape for your ears and eyes. If you like going to extremes, this show is for you.

2) Date My Mom. – An ideal show for desperate singles who search for their new never lasting love by sending their mothers on the date instead of themselves.  It is a show for different nationalities and orientation, the only rule is: your mother has to be more crazy than you are. Actually, after watching one episode I got the impression that it was the mothers that were desperately looking for a new date, rather than their children. Anyway – in both cases the image of a child-mother relation got twisted – you can no longer tell who is more mature. 

3) A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila. – Tila Tequila (a famous individual of whom you have never heard before) is rich and ‘beautiful,’ and desperately looks for romantic love (she’s bisexual). So she invites (or I should rather say that MTV invites) a group of men and women to her house, and organizes competitions that would help her to pick the right man/woman. Every week the elimination takes place where she has to eliminate one girl and one boy (“Obviously, you are not in love with me!”) and where the rest is drinking tequila shots. And the prize for the winner is.. simply Tila Tequila. 

4) My Super Sweet Sixteen. – If your parents are wealthy and have no idea what to do with their money and golden credit cards (how many ponies can you simply have?) then call MTV and ask them to film your birthday party – preferably your Sweet Sixteen. Spend all you daddy’s cash on ponies, cars, pink dress, dresses for your friends, the most expensive hairdresser in the whole USA, and, most importantly, for your PARTY (with fairy tales, with Moulin Rouge motif, with go-go dancers, with famous singers and with the most expensive gifts ever). “My party is the best!” if not – you do not count in this world.

But the winner is..

5) Jersey Shore. – What is a recipe for the most famous TV show? Pick 4 girls and 4 boys and send them to the house in Jersey where they can party all the time, and document every day of their visit. After one season (3 months) of their stay you get as much spicy and controversial moments as you wish. So what you get is drinking, drinking, sex, partying, kissing, sex, drinking and so on. Sometimes they go to work, but it is the most boring stuff (not suitable for the MTV) and can spoil the whole show. In the end they have all became celebrities, guests on important parties and they earn money just because they can. For nothing.
