Celebrity Poker Showdown: the good and the bad
by Jen Segrest, posted Aug 26th 2005 11:00AM
I have really enjoyed the show for the past few years but it's becoming harder to admit after the last two new episodes. Last week's ep (which I just saw yesterday) was basically themed "Battle of the Reality Hasbeens" with The Apprentice's famous witch queen Omarosa and a bevy of annoying, obnoxious, ignorant and nonsensical attitude-filled freakazoids like Survivor's Jonny Fairplay (who I had never heard of before today). It was a painful two hours that found me fast forwarding on TiVo a lot. The fight for fifteen more minutes was never more desperate or sad. Mostly just sad.
