Rich Girls

Following this same double-barrelled train of thought expressed earlier (ie the imminent apocalypse/stuff i would want for that last Xmas, if said stuff really existed), it's time someone put the awful MTV series Rich Girls on DVD.

Admittedly, The Hills makes this series seem like some lost Ibsen scenarios. But, lord, if there is to be a last trace of humanity found by some alien race arriving too late to see what all the fireworks were about, it would be a fair representation of 2002-3 to show this, if scenes included the following:

1. Allie's slough of poolside artistic despond where she really wants to "create" and eat Klonopins
2. the Rich Girls in the "is this terror?" morass of the Great NYC Blackout of 2003, complete with Ms. Hilfiger's order to a cabbie to "take us to my father's store."
3. The loathesome Dad H's bitchy Warholian critique of her daughter's closet full of denim, and his camera-ready declarations that all the Ralph Lauren stuff therein is "cheaply made" or "this is cheap."

This show was so excruciating, someone should actually make a movie about me watching it! I'd watch that!
