How come TV is sometimes amazing (30 Rock) and sometimes it's god-awful (almost everything else)? We decided that since TV has so many horrendous TV shows, we would watch some of them and talk about how horrible they are. Now, it's onto The Hills.
This should be the "Worst Shows On TV" every week, because it's clearly the worst show of all television history. The saddest thing is that The Hills is called a "reality show," but guess what! It is shockingly unreal. It attempts to show the lives of several 20 somethings in Los Angeles. You've heard of Los Angeles, it's that soul-stealing city where dreams regularly die. Regardless of whether or not a person "makes it," they have to endure quite a bit of struggle and sacrifice. "Struggle and sacrifice" are words unknown to the girls on the show. They lead unbelievably charmed lives, enjoying the wonders of modern luxury without performing any real work.
Yes, this apartment exists. And apparently you can afford it. Except that you can't. Not in Los Angeles, or any other city.
It revolves around Lauren Conrad, who moved to LA to pursue her comepletely unique dream of fashion design. And, as we mentioned before, she finds no obstacles when it comes to succeeding in the highly competitive fashion industry. None at all. Boom. She works at Teen Vogue and gets sent across the country. Teen Vogue trusts a 20 year old first year intern with completing some of their most important tasks. But wait, Teen Vogue doesn't do that in real life, because in real life, Lauren Conrad doesn't have a job.
The worst part of the entire show? This dumb douchebag:
Spencer Pratt. Ugh. He is one of the most atrocious people of all time.
Here's the most awful human being of all time talking down to his girlfriend's mom. (Thanks www.videogum.com!)
It's pretty pathetic that someone could talk to a mom like this and that mom's child doesn't do anything about it. But then again, Heidi IS a horrible demoness greatly in need of some 15th century sin-purging (see: fire).
Speaking of Heidi, check out the video for her soul-murdering single "Overdosin'". Yes, it's real. Feel the need to burn down a monastery? That's what this song does. It makes you want to burn down a place that monks live.
Oh no! It's time for Audrina Patridge. Hot? Yes. Dumb beyond all understanding? Yes. Her stupidity brings her hotness down a million points. That is very dumb.
Watch this interview with her on Ellen. It is dumb. She makes sure to start the whole thing off with the word "Supposively." That is not a word.
"I'm a big part of the show." Her brain does not have the ability to be hyperbolic, so she is clearly re-iterating what was told to her by show producers. When she gets off stage they'll feed her a treat for being so well-behaved.
We could go on and on. Fuck this show. This filth needs to stop being the most influential show of all time. One last thing, there's a character named "Justin Bobby." It's not too late to blow up the universe.
