I really need something explained to me. I have stumbled across one of life’s mysteries that I just don’t have the brain power to comprehend. So I turn to you, dear readers, to rack your brains and solve this mystery. What the fuck is up with that show Drop Dead Diva?
It’s pretty bad right. I mean the whole shallow girl being zapped into a new body where she is supposed to learn that life is not all about boobs and makeup. Isn’t that a bit eighties for anyone else? And then there’s the whole thing about her waking up in a big girl’s body, so that she can learn the lesson that beauty isn’t always on the outside. Gag me with a donut. That whole thing doesn’t really work when shallow girl gives big girl’s body a complete make over.
And how in the holy gay hell does no one notice that big girl goes from serious lawyer to giggly makeup hound just like that? Aren’t these people supposed to be lawyers? If that’s the case, I think I will just represent myself in any future court proceedings. (It’s bound to happen one day.)
Now comes for the even bigger mystery. Why the fuck can’t I stop watching it? I literally just sat there and watched like five episodes back to back. It was a whole new low in my life. I mean I have hit some lows before, but this is like hitting rock bottom so hard that I crashed through and found a whole subbasement of shame that I didn’t know existed before.
I really think it might be time to get Lifetime blocked from the cable box. You know I completely blame Lance bass for this sad turn that my life as taken.

I have a dirty shameful obsession with teen programming/ young adult movies. You name it Degrassi, secret life of the american teen, twilight and the sequels. I think I just like judging them. I know that the scenarios are impossible and that they have a limited basis in reality but I like whe whole " what? Wait. Did they really just say that? Who says that? No one would say or do that in real life." And then. For just A few minutes. I. Am. The better person. On a side note Lance is way overdue with that damn horse.

Drop Dead Diva is one of my favorite shows on earth. I agree that the giggly lawyer is aggravating as all hell, but I am still addicted. I started with the first episode on Netflix from season one, and the next thing I know, I was stalking Barnes and Noble waiting for season two. Now I'm DVRing season three. The next episode is on Sunday. Party at my place...

How could I have lived all these years and missed this show???? Damn I 'm going to have to watch it now. I really thought that this was the first season and when I saw the ads I didn't think it would be worth the time. Is it really that great to snark?
