Title: The Two Coreys: Is this a joke?
Post by: Jackie Blue on 20 Jul 2008, 23:03
OK so I never watch TV, not because I'm snobby just because I watch the things I like on my computer (except like LOST).

Anyway my TV is on now and uh why is there a serious dramatic reality show about Corey Haim and Corey Feldman.

I need to get stoned or put a movie on or both.

Yes, welcome to the world of Celebrity Reality television. Most of this stuff is confined to MTV and VH1 in particular, but A&E and the like have their own little shows.

Considering we're probably not going to get any defenders of this show it's probably prudent to point out the correct thread for this. (http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/topic,19528.150.html) Shows like this aren't substantial enough (nor can they produce substantial scorn) to escape from the orbit of the catch-all thread. A few posts in and all that needs to be said has been said.

Oh my god, it's like everything I've ever waited for in one wonderful televisual package! Surely now that longed-for Corey/Corey D.V.D. box set can't be too far away . . .

In a way it's a shame that I'd almost certainly despise this show if I ever got a chance to watch it.

Yeah I mean I love The Lost Boys and all.

But right now I'm watching Corey Feldman realise he's too broke to buy a good engagement ring.

FASCINATING.

i barely know enough about these guys to thingk this show is interesting, except for the one time i watched it and one of them couldn't even remember his lines and retreated to his trailer to (presumably) do some FAT LINES.

Supposedly after filming Corey F got pissed at Corey H for having 'issues that he needs to sort out'.  Whatever.  I'd opt to get stoned and watch a movie.  Like, Conan the Barbarian or something.

I eventually figured out that the show is just a commercial for Lost Boys 2.

Lost Boys 2.  Why.  WHY.

When I was a kid, I had the world's biggest crush on Corey Haim.  I had my walls covered in posters with his big face staring out at me.  So naturally, I had to check this show out.  I made it part way through one episode and never looked back again.  I suggest you do the same.

All I know is that it is now season two, and they are focussing on Lost Boys 2, Haim is either on drugs still, or is totally fucked up, and the show makes me want to shoot myself.  In the foot.  Many times.

Yeah I mean I love The Lost Boys and all.

But right now I'm watching Corey Feldman realise he's too broke to buy a good engagement ring.

I thought Feldman was married to that good-looking burnette.  The one with the hyphenated last name.

They aren't talking any more.  I guess one of the Coreys doesn't want the other in his house, says it wouldn't be a safe environment with him there.

I always forget: which one was the sleazy, creepy Corey?

The show is scripted.  Both the Corey's got together and developed the plan for the show and started filming it.  It's sort of like The Hills....but less stupid.

You know, actually, now that I know that it's scripted and a fake reality show it suddenly seems kind of brilliant in a dark satire kind of way.
