Bad Girls Club

I have a confession to make: I've been watching The Bad Girls Club: Miami. Typically I don't watch the Oxygen Network and typically I'm not into television shows depicting foolish women who are my age, but this show is actually entertaining. Originally, I wanted to see an episode because it was filmed Miami, but after watching I became dumbfounded how ridiculous this show is and became somewhat obsessed.

Now, imagine being born a cute baby girl. You get smacked on your tush by the doctor, you get wrapped around a pink blanket, you get breast-fed by your mother, you start growing, you love cookies, you have tea parties with your teddy bears, you skip to school, you have your cootie shots, you have been taught every good manner, and you're sugar and spice and everything nice. Now imagine everything opposite of that and you have these ladies:

My Tuesday nights have been pretty dull ever since Lost ended so whenever I wasn't doing anything on my former Lost night I would turn on, tune in and drop out by watching The Bad Girls Club: Miami. I've watched tons of screaming, "fights", shit-talking, bad girls leaving the house, new bad girls entering the house, drunks, bleach thrown around, and that one time they went to Churchills.

Did I learn anything from watching the show? Yes and No. Yes, this Miami season was more entertaining than Jersey Shore's Miami season (seriously I only watched two episodes). No, it's not earth shattering, but what I did learn is to embrace the "bad girls". When I first heard of this show a few years ago, I was completely baffled that a show like this exists. Who wants to watch belligerent women hmm, I mean girls, literally do nothing but drink and fight? I'm a classy board but after seeing a couple of episodes of this season of The Bad Girls Club I realized that "bad girls" are more interesting and always makes history. Com'on the first official bad girl is Eve-y Eve herself, the first woman on earth who ate a forbidden fruit from The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Heck, even the Maries from the Czech New Wave film Daisies (Sedmikrásky) were on to something. They figured since theres bad everywhere in this world, they should go bad themselves.

A nihilistic approach to life! So can I conclude since these bad girls are without (or barely with) moral standards, they are the faces of the future of post-nihilism?

Ugh, too much thought for this show. If you want to read more I suggest checking the coverage by Miami New Times.
