What I Watched Last Night

By Pat Bataillon

Monday nights and still nothing on the television and that is too bad. I would like to ask the readers of this fine little column, however, to start watching The Real World Denver. This show will definitely serve as my Thursday morning outlet for the rest of the season.

To bring you up to speed, there is a gay guy, two sluts, a girl who doesn't talk too much, a white "cool" guy, a Bible beater, and a huge guy from Omaha. You can already see the problems facing this place. Gay rights, racism, sexual promiscuity, a mental disorder (only a matter of time) and we'll have another hit on MTV.

The so-called "real world" is far from the real real world. In the real real world you have to pay rent and have a job. In the Real World you live in a dream house for free and work a "job" three hours a week. In the real world there are not cameras chasing you around. Also, a Bible beater and a gay man would never, by choice, live in the same house with each other. The women with loose sexual morals would, however, live with a "cool" guy.

I guess the only thing that is in common with the two versions of the world is that both phone conversations are monitored for secrets.

Pat Bataillon is the Beachwood's resident TV watcher. Catch up on everything he's been watching in the What I Watched Last Night archive.
