Of late, I've watched a not insignificant amount of daytime television. On any given day, you can catch me watching Good Morning America, Live with Kelly, Kathie Lee & Hoda, The View and then maybe even some Ellen, Anderson and basically whatever else is on TV. Clearly I enjoy watching these shows, but here's what I can't stand: the middle aged female audience and the way they dance.
This audience looks like the producers have scoured every one horse town to invite the ladies to NEW YORK CITY* to see how the moving pictures on their TVs get made. These women then shout and clap at the dumbest stuff, as though with every mention of every celebrity, no matter how B-list, Harrison Ford is about to walk through the door. And dear God, please don't let there be give-aways. Ladies, calm down, it's a crappy DVD, not the lottery jackpot, no need for a heart attack.
The worst though, is when they make these women dance. Ellen is the worst offender, since dancing is her schtick. Ellen, you may be a decent dancer, your audience is not. Half the audience does not know what the beat is, and contrary to Gloria Estefan's prediction, the rhythm will never get them. The other half who can find the beat will step-clap to any music. Carrie Underwood (ok, appropriate), Goyte (I think the women just don't know what to do with that music), Nicki Minaj (not really step-clap music) or Jay-Z (sugar please), those ladies will step clap to that music. Ladies, you're embarrassing yourselves. The director of the show isn't helping anything! Stop panning over the audience showing them dancing! It's not necessary!
So sugars who are attending daytime tv tapings in the future, please, just be cool so I don't have to be annoyed. K thanks!
*omg please note that in that link--the old Pace salsa commercial, the generic salsa is known as "Mexican Sauce." Amazi-racist.
