So…last night against my better judgement I tuned in to see the season premiere of the new season of I Love New York. They made some changes this season that I actually really liked…but overall I couldn’t help but think…what a bunch of losers! Then again you’d have to be a loser to go on a show like that so I don’t know why I was even mildly surprised.

First, we were introduced to people cast by VH1. Those folks were clearly cast to be the butt of all the jokes. Not that I have anything against little people…but did they really expect Midget Mac to be a credible contender for the #1 spot(well maybe it wasn’t such a stretch after all)? VH1 showed no mercy by positioning the diary room camera so that the only thing visible was the top of his face in his interviews. That’s just a low blow…or a high one! But I guess they are equal opportunity offenders on that network.

Anyway…next up was the cast of internet picks. I don’t know what people saw in the #1 pick because he was totally busted, but perhaps he launched the best voting campaign and was rewarded with immunity from elimination. These guys were definitely a step up from the first group but that’s not saying much.

 

 Lastly, Sister Patterson with a much better weave and styling brings out the “Mama’s Boys”. Maybe Sister didn’t get the memo that this show is a complete farce, because she actually picked a largely decent group of guys including the most attractive men. I thought she was supposed to have amazing gaydar though? More on that later…

As usual, the next task at hand was naming the guys. This show proves that there are some men with just as little dignity as women when it comes to the lengths they would go to be on tv. Some of the lowlights include Ears (he had big ears), Unsure (who was dumb that he took that as a compliment), and Punk. Yes you read that correctly…a grown man and supposedly a lawyer at a top law firm is going to be known as Punk on national tv. What kind of sh!t is that? Obviously it’s fitting since he didn’t object to the name. I know dignity is in short supply on these shows, but this is one of the all time lows. Also, it looks like he could be on the DL…something about the curly top and perfectly arched eyebrows just sets off my -dar. The highlights are Champion…a former football player who is so easy on the eyes, and the southern gentleman/law school student Pretty. Something must be wrong with them to be on this show, but at least they are reasonable enough to root for out the bunch. Oh yeah…Ezra aka Buddha (why would he want that name? Kinda sacrilegious if you ask me) is a reality show groupie, because I recognize him from Hell Date.

As usual…the mixer follows and turns out to be far less outrageous this season. New York made nice with Midget Mac, rolled her eyes at Tailor Made and a few others, and was turned on by Wolf letting her know that he has a huge d!ck. Yeah…the usual classy behavior we’ve come to expect from her.

So to close out the show, New York gives out chains to everyone except Champion (which shows that she has no sense at all), Milliown, Sweetie Pie, Ears, and Doc.

So what’s the season looking like this time around? Pure foolishness! It seems like Tailor Made is going to rub a lot of people the wrong way and get his head knocked off by Buddha (which is so wrong to pick on a dude half his size). Look for a reappearance by Chance…which I can’t say is unpredictable, but will she pull a Flav and diss him twice? I think if you take this show for what it is…a joke, you will be entertained. I wouldn’t miss Girlfriends or The Game for this, but if you’re ever bored and want to catch a re-run then knock yourself out.

What do you think about this new season? Do any of the guys look decent or are they wack by default of signing up for the show? Is New York taking this seriously at all? Are you looking forward to her crazy antics? Who do you think will end up winning the season? Who will be next to go?
