Lori's List - the Best Of 2003

hell, everybody else does it, why can't i? let's recap some of the highlights of 2003...

let's start with pop culture stuff....

BEST tv show: is it too cliche to say Queer Eye For The Straight Guy - yeah, they're taking a bit of the "real" out of "reality tv" and some people complain that it promotes stereotypes of gay (and straight) men, but it's just so damned good...

honorable mention: Survivor: Pearl Islands (go Rupert!)


BEST tv channel: hafta give this one to Bravo - with Queer Eye, Boy Meets Boy (an interesting spin in the monotonous world of reality dating shows), Celebrity Poker Showdown - they've got some good original programming and reruns of West Wing and the Restaurant are cool too...

honorable mention: gotta love Court TV! and i think TNT and USA oughta give up on their rerunning episodes of Law & Order and Law & Order SVU and let's just create a freakin Law & Order Channel! hell, between all the franchises i'm sure there's more than enough episodes to fill a schedule - if not, run CSI and the Practice on the weekends. *8-)


BEST tv character: The Practice has sadly jumped the shark, but the addition of James Spader to the cast, as evil slimy lawyer Alan Shore is one of the few reasons left to continue watching.


BEST talk show host: Ellen DeGeneres - ellen made setting the VCR timer a requirement - even if i don't watch the show all the time, taping it means there's always something funny to watch...


more when i think of 'em...
