I just had to watch Keeping up with the Kardashians...

After hearing Kathy Griffin making fun of "Keeping up with the Kardashians", I just had to watch an episode just to get a feel of what she's making fun of. I must confess that I thought weird when Kim Kardashian started showing up at makeup forums everywhere asking whatever makeup she's wearing brand wise and now I get it.

OK, I've watched "The Simple Life", "My Life on the D-List", HOWEVER they all pale to comparison on how bad this show is.

For reference, I watched episode 9 of Season 2 and it's the worst crap I've ever seen.

So, Kim wonders what she can give as a present for her boyfriend Reggie and of course she comes up with the great idea of making a very sexy lingerie calendar to give as a gift. So, in a couple of days she gets a photographer makeup artist that makes all the photos with props et all (not before there is some product placement for a cosmetic treatment center where Kim gets treatment for her cellulite) and she's "almost caught" when her boyfriend shows up at the shoot and thinks it's another job of hers.

Meanwhile, the other older daughters Kourtney and Khloe (spell check) think that the stepfather doesn't do anything for a living and he decided to take them to one of his motivational speeches preceded by a cocktail party where the girls fondle a football player mannequin.

While that shit is going on, the mother gets the calendar proof pictures and decides to sell them to 5 local newstands and Kim miraculously finds out, bitches at her mother and then goes and buys all the calendars in five local stores promptly saving the day (and giving Reggie the best anniversary gift ever) and then gets even and blackmails her mother with a sort of racy picture of her.

Who buys this crap? I thought of doing a list of all the improbabilities of all that crap happening without being staged, but I just settle for one:

Kim's mom sells approximately 100 copies of the calendar to five local stores that vary from bookstore to convenience store, so they want us to believe that a calendar would be published without Kim signing a thing, without the seal of known publisher without any publicity whatsoever and from printing to distributing, it would all happen in three days, give or take?

Gimme a break, whoever thinks this crap is remotely real has serious dementia issues.

Wish me Sousei no Aquarion...
