 I've been laid up in bed with a nasty cold for a couple of days, so I rang in the new year by marathoning the first few episodes of MTV's new reality show, Jersey Shore.

Actually, I was just sitting here this morning thinking, "You know, the great thing about fandom is that no matter how trashy my current fixation, someone else will always be watching something trashier."

And you've just demonstrated that. *GRIN*

Hey, glad to be of service....

Just how trashy is your current fixation?

I'm rewatching the show I was really fannish about when I was thirteen! It is SO AWESOME. Also quite trashy!

And I'd forgotten about how in the late 1980s, network television that aired at 8 p.m. was actually age-appropriate for children. So I am thinking about showing it to the kids.

I think nostalgia gets an automatic pass on trashiness.

I don't think I even watched television for most of the late '80s, since I was in college by then.

*snerk* Yes, yes, you are old, Father William.

I was growing up in LA. There was a lot of TV involved.
