After this latest scandal with Roseanne I am becoming more disheartened about all the celebrities that exist, and especially about my opportunities of watching any type of unscathed entertainment - seems my choices in this arena are growing rapidly slim.
My former favorite newsman- Charlie Rose. My former favorite narrator- not to mention one of my top ten favorite actors- Morgan Freeman.
I was laughin' along with the Cos on old records when he was asking "Why is there air? ( to blow up volley balls) " And btw I thought Miramax came out with some fine films.
Don't even mention politicians. If there's one that hasn't made the maid, or muscled the meek, or who had to call the Maytag repairman b/c he laundered so much money it broke the washing machine- I dunno who. And what's this new thing with muppets having an orgy?!?! is no place safe?
I may have to give up tv and movies and newscasts entirely ( cooking shows too apparently) and if I' m ever gonna vote again- I'll need to bring a can of Lysol into the voting booth.
I know we've always had scandals, some of which seem uncalled for wuth the passing of time- getting divorced or having an affair, for instance, was enough to derail a career at one point in the distant past.
Are the amount of scandals just becoming more visible b/c of the phones and the Internet and the Twitter where people friitter away their time, and their careers ?
Or is it something else? Are there more scandals about grievous misbehavior b/c just more and more people are misbehaving?
I have to admit during this recent deluge of reveals about people I was once comfortable to watch- and who I can no longer think of without cringing- I just wonder if things are just getting worse!
Waddya think? Is it just human nature? Or is it a new world disorder? I m not sure either conclusion will cheer me up. But interested in your views.
And maybe I'll just watch cartoons and animated movies from now on - lest they find some dirt on Nemo and Dory next🙄
