Meow.So that means no Ghost Whisperer, which I'm definitely sad about as I must now shelve the dozen jokes I have collected about Jennifer Love Hewitt's cleavage and how shocking it is that none of the other characters have yet suffocated to death in it as, for all appearances, it seems to take up at least 95% of the set. Aha, got one in anyway. Ba-dum-tish.
The Ghost Whisperer is a TV show, not a pseudo documentary. It is a TV version of speculative fiction (of dubious quality) covering a literary standard: ghosts. Sure, the tales are not in Stephen King's league. American TV has been using the nice rack, see WKRP for an example, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, as a standard stage prop for decades.
They won't talk to me, so I'll poke fun at her boobs.
A few years back in a similarly pointless volley of scorn sent at a TV show, Dan Quayle had the decency not to pass comment on Candice Bergen's chest, rear end, face lift, makeover, whatever. Swift Commentary boob gags were at one point more commonly pitched as "look at what this boob is trying to sell to the gullible."
Equal time or feline frenzy?
The review left me wondering at the intended audience. It appears to be late elementary school or junior high, see mushy grossfoods, which leaves me wondering at the boob joke opener. (And later follow up. )
I was left with no particular interest in reading either book reviewed when all was said and done. Not a problem, as your weren't writing advertising copy. There was a bit of inverse advertising going on, as A. Smith reviews are now less likely to get my mouse click.
