Dammit, we’re not soulless bastards. Last night’s Denise
Richards: It’s Complicated clinched it. We would totally get into
bed with Denise…
…and hug
her cute little blonde munchkin children, while crying about their dearly
departed Grandma. Dammit, E! We know the entire purpose of the show is to make
Denise more likeable (yeah, yeah, to tell “her side of the story”). We resisted
her cute potty-mouth. We tried not to cheer when she lost her cool and called a
tabloid journalist a c*nt (and we don’t even like that word. Too, too much.).
But…dead
grandmas? Angel-bears made out of dead grandma’s jeans? We can’t take it!
We kinda
teared up last night. And we hate to say it: but last night’s heartfelt episode
of Denise
Richards: It’s Complicated actually felt like reality. Maybe one of
the most “real” moments we’ve seen on television in a long time.
Yes, saying
that about this show makes us puke in our mouths. A lot. And even this clip of
angel-bears is a bit smarmy, on its own. But when Denise, her sister and her
dad went to her parents’ home to clean out the belongings, it was one of the
only moments of “reality” TV that was totally, sadly relatable. No one talks
about death on E!
Please. We
can’t take it. Just go back to spray-tanning Denise’s million dollar ass next
week, and the universe will make sense again.
