And it gets even more surreal

I watched The Surreal Life the first time around. Not all of it - but a few episodes. I watched it for a few reasons: 1) I like to see sublebrities participate in wacky stunts that they believe they will revive their careers. 2) I was madly in love with Corey Feldman back in the day. 3) It was all Motley-Crue all the time from the ages of 8 to 15 (although the object of my affection, complete with a shrine in my bedroom, was none other than Nikki Sixx). And mainly, I wanted to see how all of these people of different ages, backgrounds and downward career spirals would get along. Truth was, Corey Feldman was kinda awful, and the show was kinda boring.

I have mixed feelings about the newest incarnation of The Surreal Life. The cast includes Tammy Faye Baker, Vanilla Ice, Ron Jeremy, Trishelle from The Real World, Traci Bingham and Erik Estrada. And what can you really say about that besides "whoa"? On the pro side, Vanilla Ice got really, really hot and Ron Jeremy just cracks me up. On the con side, Tammy Faye might scare the shit out of me, and I'm not familiar with this Trishelle character. I might tune in this Sunday, because, I mean, how can you not?
