Four Hours?


Apparently E! thinks way more of the world are interested in Kim Kardashian than we actually are. At least I hope no one is interested. E! is devoting four hours of prime time television to the wedding of Kim Kardashian. Four hours! That is longer than some actual marriages last. What makes them think that people will sit through that? Oh, and the thing is, there is no guarantee they will show the actual wedding either one of those nights. They have also picked the strangest time to show it. Columbus Day weekend/Canadian Thanksgiving weekend. I know Columbus Day is not the biggest travel weekend ever, but people are away from their sets. I guess that will be a big excuse when the show bombs. Oh, please, for the love of everything holy, let it bomb. Let E! spend a huge bunch of money and have no one watch. That could be the death knell for the show. I believe that is the first time I have used the word knell in the blog. I have used Nell Carter, and probably a whoa Nelly, but I believe that is the first knell. Four hours!! E! must think this is the late 70's and they have a mini-series they think people will watch.

  1. LOL. Oh, precious Enty, I KNEW you'd be bitching about this at some point today. ;-)

    I still suspect that you're secretly a big Kardashian supporter, and that Kris Jenner kicks you some cash each time you mention her family on CDAN.

    "I believe that is the first time I have used the word knell in the blog. I have used Nell Carter, and probably a whoa Nelly, but I believe that is the first knell."

    Also, your digressions effing rule.

  2. I hate to say it, but I think E! will do well with this, a lot of people will watch.

  3. Do not mean to sound childish, or churlish, but for that specific week, in order to make a point about my horror of all things Kardashians, I am cancelling my E! Channel access, replacing it with the History Channel.

    I refuse to encourage in any way that crap.

  4. I have never watched any of their shows and I will not start with this joke of a wedding.

  5. LOL Enty, this makes me laugh. You know how some people think that hell is individually tailored for each one of us, consisting of the things we hate or terrorize us the most?

    I am thinking for you it would be non-stop showings of this special 24/7 with a plate of hot, crispy bacon just out of your reach ;>

  9. My 34 year old married stepdaughter (with a new baby) mentioned last night how she wished Kim K was still with Reggie Bush because it would be so cool to see her hang out in Miami (she lives in Fort Lauderdale). When I mentioned she's basically famous for being a whore she got all upset saying how Kim K is "misunderstood" and a wonderful "businesswoman". It was an uncomfortable dinner.

  10. @SusanB -- Hate on the Kardashians for their famemongering all you want, but how, exactly, is Kim a "whore"? She made a sex tape with an ex-boyfriend and has dated plenty of athletes, but there aren't the same rumors surrounding her as, say, Paris or Lindsay. As far as you and I know, Kim's never been paid to put out.

    Slutshaming makes me truly sad -- particularly when the shaming comes from another woman.

  11. Oh Kimberly, you have done nothing to show her the error of her ways?

    Kim's ego is as big as her ass, and this marriage will last less than 2 years.

  12. I would spend 4 hours watching THE royal wedding (and probably did). This famewhore fest, not so much.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Lol this post was hilarious, Enty.

    I refuse to even click on Kardashian stories on the E! website (and there are many). I won't give E! the satisfaction. I'm so effing sick of this family. Who cares about this famewhore's second wedding? I won't care about her fifth or sixth, either.

  14. I have already admitted that I watch their shows...but I will not watch this mess. I WILL NOT!

    However, I will say this: Kim, Kourtney and Khloe are amazing women of upstanding moral character and excellent business practices in comparison to those little half-sisters of theirs. Those girls are HORRIBLE. I don't condone child abuse, but somebody needs to slap them. Or make them spend a week under a bridge with homeless people and crackheads. Or, you know, a few days in a normal income household where if you casually took your dad's credit card out of his wallet and went shopping with it without his knowledge, you'd be grounded and without an allowance for a few months. They're gross. They're only teenagers but they have already reached Paris Hilton-like levels of human uselessness.

  15. Ida, TedC. has a blind item about a woman who wanted a pair of shoes that an athlete was representing. He said if she fucked him, he'd get her a pair. She fucked him all right, in the shower with a room full of people watching.

    It was Kim K.

    just saying. :)

  16. I hate this on so many levels. America, I beg you, DO NOT TUNE IN.

  17. Maja, I refuse to watch the show, but weren't those two dancing on a pole at age 10 and 12? what would you expect?

    ReplyDelete
  18. @parissucks -- Oh, I totally remember that blind -- Carmelita Salami-Climber, right? (oh my fucking God, I want to flog myself for remembering that), but it was also a TED blind. And I only believe, like, twenty percent of anything he puts in print -- even though I actually find him kinda charming and hilarious and I read his column religiously every day.

    Besides...would Kim actually *want* a shoe an athlete would ever endorse? She probably sleeps in Louboutins.

    Honestly, I think I *don't* hate Kim as much as, um, everyone else here because I can't help comparing her to Paris -- and Kim comes off smelling like a freakin' rose in comparison to the herp stench P. emits.

    PLUS, Kim not only unceremoniously ditched Paris as a friend, but she's also a THOUSAND times more famous and successful than Paris ever was, which must wound Paris and her pride tremendously. And, frankly, I support anything or anyone that causes Paris any misery or discomfort whatsoever.

    And at least Kim isn't a racist.

    And at least she doesn't hoard animals!

    And at least she doesn't have Fraggle hair!!

    Anyway. Just sayin'. :-)

  19. FWIW, since I never watch KUWTK, I personally intend to lump this in with the Casey Anthony interviews I won't be watching.

  21. I hear the hotel rooms where the reception is being held start at 600bucks a nite. If you can't afford it, tuff shit.

  22. The show is scripted - the younger girls do what they are told and is in the script.

    It's on the parents.

  23. She took my wedding day. :|

    I felt neutral towards her before, but now I don't really like her all that much.

    Asshole.

  24. Kim has over 5 million idiots following her on twitter. They will watch.

  25. You would have to tie me to a chair and keep my eyelids open with toothpicks for me to watch four hours of this bullshit, and if you're gonna tie me to a chair you'd better have better things in mind than watching a Kardashian get married.

    I don't hate on Kim. Compared to Paris and Lindsay, she seems like Mother Theresa.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Their whole famewhore family makes me sick!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I will ONLY watch this if everyone, including Gaycrest, are gunned down in the end.

    ReplyDelete
  28. For some reason I can't see her actually going through with the wedding. I think she'll be a runaway bride.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Actually, I know from a very good source close to the Kardashians that the mother leaked the sex tape. She sold it. The mother brokers all the deals, the $$ they're raking in is ridiculous. At some point, they'll fade like Paris, but for now we have to endure their 99 different shows.

  30. oh, and E bought the ring, not Humphries.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Ida, I agree with you 100% about Kim being better than Paris. The fact that she has eclipsed Paris is her saving grace with me. :)

  32. I am waiting for the invitation for the DIVORCE
