This Is Just Wrong


I have spent some time hammering away at Celebrity Rehab and now it is time for some pontificating towards its spin off show Sober Living. Last week they lost Steven Adler and this week it looks like they lost Shifty Shellshock.

Lets see why a show entitled Sober Living may have lost one of their stars.

"While shooting scenes for the show on Friday night at GOA nightclub, he skipped out on production -- leaving the cast high and dry."

Ummm. You are shooting a show about sobriety at a nightclub? On a Friday night? What kind of sick f**ks do something like that?

"Hey, I've got an idea. Lets torture the hell out of our patients by making them work the bar or wait tables at a nightclub on a Friday night. It will be fun to see them sweat and shake. You just know one will booze it up right there on camera."

I'm really finding it hard to believe there could be any logical, sane reason for filming at GOA. In addition, the producers of the show are worried that he may have relapsed because they paid him in advance and think he might be using the money for drugs. OK, so wait. You think he might be using the money to get high again and yet you still wanted to take him to a club? So basically the producers and VH-1 are using all these people as puppets and filming them all. It is one thing to do that when they are just some has beens or reality wannabes or any of the Hogans. It is another thing though when it is someone that is trying to get sober, you allegedly get them clean and then do your damnedest to make sure they fall off the wagon just so you have better television.

That's sick and they should all be ashamed.
