You mean you’re currently a Nielsen contributor?
The major difference between this piece of shit and THE OSBOURNES, of course, is that the ratings for THE OSBOURNES went up each week after its premeire.
If this show doesn’t tank within 6-8 weeks then The Apocalypse is ineed among us.
I expected a huge opening share. Hell, everyone had to watch it because of the curosity factor.
Well, the curiosity is for the most part satiated. And this show sucks ass.
She said on Howard Stern that she put on weight because of stress and depression over the court case. I also thought that the family settled out of court with her, because she said she was waiting for her money to show up. I think she should get some money. Think about it, even if she was gold digging she was probably the only person that gave that old man some affection in his waning years. I’ll be willing to put money on the fact that that old dude’s family saw him as a burden and were counting the seconds til he croaked. It was when it was said that he was giving his fortune to an outsider that every body decided to speak up. She should get some money because she was willing to give that man somthing that he could construe as affection wether her motive was to or not.
Yes, yes, all well and good.
The question is…
Is she drunk or stoned or both?
She was incoherent. Utterly.
If she’s as drunk as it seems, then E! is engaging in little more than Celebrity Bumfights.
Peace.

| Russell Lucas: Carl, why would a successful ANS show be a greater sign of the Apocalypse than a successful Ozzy show? |
Because, THE OSBOURNES is an entertaining guilty pleasure whereas the ANS is pretty much the opposite.
Sure, the concept is the same. Drugs, alcohol, ignorant hijinx. But the results couldn’t be any more different. I watched the ANS show expecting it to be entertaining from a “train wreck” perspective. But it wasn’t. It was just lame… and sad.
My wife had a great comment after seeing (and hearing) ANS in the previews:
“So, is she competing with Ozzy for least understandable person on TV?”
Ahh, my wife…she doesn’t have many of them, but when she does, she hits 'em out of the park.
Micah all I know is you choose some of the strangest people to decide and defend like you do.

You’re right. But she’s not a stick, she’s a fucking 150 year old oak tree. Slant it any way you want to, she is one fat woman.

I caught this show on rerun (which E! has been playing back to back for several hours yesterday) and I am absolutely horrified. I really feel sad at this woman’s existance. I have no understanding how she was able to survive this long. Darwinism is just begging to get rid of that sorry excuse for a human.
I don’t really mean to be that mean, but she really is dumber than a sack of rocks. She mispronounced “cabana,” cried when she couldn’t afford a house she really wanted, and got stuck multiple times climbing into or under things she darn well knew she couldn’t fit in/under. When she was on the phone with her son, he sounded more adult than she. I feel for the kid. I really do. eek! frown
God this show is awful.
It’s not funny, it’s not interesting, it’s just depressing. Her son didn’t even wanna hug her.
And it’s funny, The Osbournes came on right after it and it was amazing to compare how much personality they have as opposed to her. She’s got 1/10th the personality of ANY of the Osbournes.

Well…lemme get this clear.
I don’t see calling someone “a zonked-out, increasingly overweight, brain-frozen zombie who is merely a lesion on the skin of Hollywood” as defending them.
And because my cable doesn’t get fixed until Wednesday (I can still watch HBO and a few other channels oddly enough, but my basic is FRIED), I haven’t even seen ONE minute of the show yet. So I can’t really speak on it.
I merely take exception to the larger issue of women who do what she did with that old man as being called a gold digger, and men being portrayed as victims of these scavengers. It’s double-standard BS. That guy liked big-boobed blond chicks and courted them left and right. He knew what he was in for, and had no problems ponying up the money to make it happen to give her what SHE wanted.
It’s no different than celebrities using their fame and fortune to pull women all over the place. These are the same mofos as they were when nobody knew who they were and they worked menial jobs, but now they have glitz and glamour, and they suddenly become 800 times more attractive. These guys know what the chicks they bed and send on their way want, and the chicks know the deal as well. There’s no victimizing going on, and although all of these arrangements, including Anna Nicole’s, are pathetic to me, they’re arrangements between consenting adults.
New ep was on 2nite. Damn, it’s actually a really SAD show. Not funny, but sad. Anna Nicole Smith will be dead within 5 years, she is teetering on the brink of “the edge”.
I watched this show last night for the first time. I really do not like to talk badly about people, but in this case I am. First off, the beginning of the show makes me sick, when they have the cartoon and show her wealthy older husband “poofing” away and her sitting on a balancing scale, her on one side and money on the other. It is totally disgusting, and a disgrace to her former husband and his family. BAD TASTE
She is sickening when she talks, and her fake crying is totally bull. Last night she brought her dead husband’s ashes in and set them on a TV set. How respectful is that? She makes me sick, and that show sucks.
The ironic part about all this is, as dumb as she appears to be, she is rich. She must be pretty damn manipulative and smart. DIGUSTING.
The best part of the show was her dog and his play bear.
I, too, feel sorry for her son.
Ozzy’s show is really good I think, but Anna’s show is the worst tv show I have ever seen, mainly because SHE IS ONE BIG FAKE and FLAKE.
To those of you that like this show, you have my sympathy.

Today, I met Micah for lunch and before we parted I handed him a tape with at least 2 episodes of the show on it (can’t remember if it kicked off last week with one or two).
Can’t wait to see his take.
My take?
Exactly what I expected.
I reacted the way most people did.
First, i couldn’t believe how big she’d gotten and how zonked she was. I said to myself the show was crap.
YET…I kept watching. And it isn’t a “good” show, by any stretch of the imagination. But she’s amusing the same way anyone stoned or drunk out of their mind making a fool of themselves is.
And the truly bizarre moments like her female assistant giving her “a horsey ride”…priceless.
So yeah…I’ll watch the show. But I can absolutely understand why others would hate it.
I hate the show, but i’m still drawn to it.
I just love the unintentional comedy of it, like how her son didn’t want to give her a hug.
I find nothing funny about the show at all. It’s all just annoying and sad to me. Not even entertaining in a “bad” way.
I really thought it had the potential to be as interesting/entertaining as THE OSBOURNES. But, hell no. It’s beyond a sad, pale imitation.
Stuff like her “slug bug fight” with her assistant in the car. Ugh. Who the hell thinks that is even the slightest but entertaining, interesting, or funny? And, what’s even scarier is realizing that this is what’s actually in the show. Just think how god awful the stuff they don’t show is! Yeesh.

Exactly. I’ve seen one episode too many. I don’t plan on watching another.
