I found myself tonight catching a few moments of the new VH1 show Confessions of a Teen Idol. And by "I found myself tonight catching a few moments of the new VH1 show Confessions of a Teen Idol," I of course mean "I consciously decided to not read a book, or do something even remotely constructive towards become a better person or citizen to scratch my balls to Confessions of a Teen Idol."But what drives me bananas is, look at these guys. Can you quickly name 1/2 of them? After about 20 minutes with some prompting you're like "okay, it's the dude from The Blue Lagoon, the guy from The First Real World and, as it turns out, 6 guys from Baywatch." (Xmas note - I will not recognize the existence of Ray Pruitt. Throw Donna down the steps? Fuck you, asshole.) I mean, even in the world of ex-D List Celebrities, these guys are ass. But the empathetic host is Scott Baio. What? Hey, say what you will about Scott Baio - one hit wonder as an actor, cheesy womanizer, whatever. But you could drop Scott Baio off in Antarctica, and within 90 seconds someone would walk up "heeeey...Chachi!!!"
I never thought I'd ever say this, but I am: Scott Baio is way too classy for this show and deserves better.

I'd rather stay unknown than have Chachi be my claim to fame. (Actually, I'd rather die.) The dude from The Blue Lagoon's got him beat, there.
