Reality TV brilliance, if there is such a thing

I'm not gonna lie, I'm feeling a bit down tonight without my weekly dose of Bret Michaels and his love seeking vixens. It's Sunday, and Celebracadabra premieres on VH1 tonight, a show whose name makes me cringe and I expect will almost definitely be as humdrum as Celebrity Boot Camp.

...And this got me thinking: What happens to all my old reality television friends now that their respective shows have ended? Will they slip into the abyss of celebrity dating show losers now that their 15 minutes have ended? Will I never see Buckwild or TMNT-Tango ever again? How will I remember what Daisy and her bloated lips look like once they stop playing the Rock of Love II reunion on VH1??
But it's almost like VH1 read my thoughts (or my blog), because the brilliant minds behind all of your favorite celebrity dating shows (Flavor of Love 1,2,3; I Love New York 1,2; and Rock of Love 1,2) have created the ultimate reality show has-been series, aptly titled "I Love Money."

The show, which is tentatively scheduled to air July 13 (casting special July 6), will quit cloaking the real reason that most of these people sign up for these ridiculous shows (because it's certainly not love) and pit them against each other in physical and mental tasks for a chance to win some cold hard cash--$250,000 to be exact.

There aren't too many details available right now surrounding the show, just that shooting quietly wrapped in March and MTV VJ Lala will host. No official announcement of cast members yet, but Rock of Love 1's Heather and Rock of Love 2's Meghan are both rumored to be onboard.

UPDATE: VH1 is also planning a "Rock of Love Charm School," similar to the Flavor of Love version from last summer, and Heather will also be enrolled.

CAN'T WAIT--ahh, my reality television addiction is so not healthy...

Dreams are the things confetti is made of

I always wondered who had the tedious job of sweeping up all that Time Square confetti on New Year's Day, but apparently they're dream makers.

This year, the wishes of people across the world will be printed on the bajillion pieces of confetti dumped on the crazies who visit Time Square tomorrow as part of a NYE Wishing Wall.

To have your wish printed, visit this Web site and fill out the form. Wishes will also be posted here. The wish-filled pieces of confetti will be mixed with plain confetti (is that an oxymoron), equalling more than 1 ton of crap falling on people's heads and onto the dirty streets.

I seriously could not think of a more worthless idea. Is anyone going to read this?? Oh wait, let me bend down and pick some wishes off the street. Or hey, you, there's a wish stuck in your hair, oh it's little Jimmy from Poughkeepsie.

And if you try to fill out the form to submit a wish, you get like, 10 characters to write your it. "I wish this year tha--" that's all you get. I wish for more space to write my damn wish!
