Dresscue Me

Dresscue Me airs on Planet Green Tuesday at 10:00pm est. time.

This is a realty show that features Shareen Mitchell’s business of rescuing old clothes and giving them a new life. I love the idea of this show as we need more shops like this. Instead of continuing to create new clothes let’s make the best of what we already made. Also I’m a big fan of one of kinds. I hate going somewhere and everyone looks the same. Shareen creates great looks with what she finds. The problem I have with the show is the disorganization of her business. It’s a mess. I’m an organized freak and it bothers me to see clutter. Do not know how she can operate her business in such a mess. Also she treats her staff like crap. I think she is playing up to the cameras. I’ve only watched one episode and I’m definitely intrigued enough to continue to watch. If you’re a fan of fashion watch Dresscue Me.

Bert the Conqueror

Bert the Conqueror airs on the Travel Channel on Sundays at 8pm est. time.

Bert Kreischer is a comedienne who travels America conquerring the scariest amusement park rides to the unusual local entertainment.  He will compete in dangerous and entertaining competitions. I’m a bit of a thrill seeker so I definitely enjoy this show. It will give you the travel bug and make you want to experience the activities for yourself.  Bert is the perfect host for this show. He is funny, adorable and up for anything. The show let’s you see that there are still great places to visit right here in the Grand Ole USA.  Watch Bert the Conqueror and allow yourself to be a big kid again.

Who the (BLEEP) Did I Marry?

Who the (BLEEP) Did I Marry? airs on the Investigative Channel. Check your local listing.

These poor saps think they have a good marriage and then they find out it’s all a lie. How the hell would you feel waking up one day to find out you were married to a serial killer? To find out your husband is a bank robber or married to other women? What the fuck?  How horrible is that? These poor women walked around life thinking that (whatever it may be) could never happen to them and then it did. Their worst nightmare could have been better than their realty. These bastards were good at keeping their secrets for so long or their wives did not want to see the writing on the wall. So many victims left behind their deceits. They interview wives, family, law enforcement and have reenactments. It’s captivating to see the lies unfold. To make sure you are not married to some psycho watch Who the (Bleep) Did I Marry?

Taboo

Taboo airs on National Geographic Monday’s at 9pm est. time. New episodes for season seven begin May 2

Taboo is about strange and scary practices and behaviors from people around the world. I’ve been watching this show since season one. It’s interesting to see what is considered Taboo in different cultures. This show is bizarre and fascinating. I still get shocked by the practices of people in other cultures in the name of religion, love and lifestyle. Body modifications, tattoos, drugs, strange foods, etc. The pain they endure is real and scary. All type of “normal” people appear from men who are in love with human size dolls to nudist camps to sex rituals and these are not people from third world countries. These people have jobs, friends and families and now everyone gets to see their dirty little secret. These people either brave or attention seekers. Taboo keeps me squirming and gasping and it never disappoints. Every episode takes me on a journey out of this world. To see what is considered Taboo, watch it.

The Voice

The Voice airs on NBC Tuesday 9pm est. time. Check you local listing as they will air repeats.

It’s a singing competition, what makes this competition different from the stale old American Idol is that the singers are picked solely on their voices and they don't have judges, they have coaches who have their backs turned to the singers while they sing. If a coach likes what they hear they turn around. If multiple coaches turn around then the singer can pick whose team they want to be on. The coaches are freaking brilliant, Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine. They will each have a team and compete against each other. They will mentor and work closely with their team. They each start with a team of eight and must eliminate four. Then America votes. I have two favorites so far. Looking forward to the journey of the contestants. To watch someones dream of becoming a superstar come true, view The Voice.

Repo Games

Repo Games airs on Spike TV Tuesday 8pm est. time. Check your local listing as they will air repeats. I saw the commercial for this show and was very interested.

It’s a game show where the contestants who have are behind on their loans get a visit from the repo man and they get a chance to win their car, free and clear. The repo man asks them five questions and they must get three correct in order to win. If they lose they take their ride. It’s that simple. No fine print, no strings attached and no bullshit. The questions are relatively easy and are about anything from pop culture to music to geography to movies and beyond. I’m a fan of trivia and definitely play along with my husband. We laugh at the contestants and ourselves as we play along. Some of the cars are busted but these people who kill for their ride. They act the fool when they win and look pathetic when the lose. The hosts are cute and their face expressions are a riot. I find this show very entertaining and educational. To watch an original show that will tease your brain and tickle your funny bone watch Repo Games.  

Fatal Attractions

Fatal Attractions airs on the Animal Planet Friday at 9pm est. time.

Fatal Attractions is about a one sided love affair between humans and wild animals. This show is fascinating. It shows how humans become obsessed with wild animals and try to humanize them. All types of animals are profiled from a man keeping a lion in an apartment in Harlem to a couple sharing their home with a smelly Buffalo to a man keeping multiple reptiles in a small apartment. They share their homes and their property with these animals and never believe that they will hurt them. Of course they are wrong.  The different ways these people are killed is always cruel and painful. Their obsession makes them blind to the fact that these animals are not meant to live in crapped apartments, houses or their backyards. They’re meant to live in the wild. They treat the animals excellently and love them unconditionally but that is not enough to change their behavior. I’m a huge animal lover but do not believe that we should try to keep them from their natural homes. I no longer support circuses and am not a huge fan of zoos. The only reason I still support some zoos is because of the work they do to help animals. I hope this show can help someone out there realize that they need to return these animals to their natural habitat before it costs them their lives. If you are an animal lover and want to see a love affair gone array watch Fatal Attractions.
