*I get a little crazy, shallow and loud when I rant. I don't rant often and I only do so when I feel bored or annoyed (doi!).
Can PBB or should I say "Kuya" be more shallow and evil???
I mean, I just watched PBB and the Mariel-thingy said that Brenda had special powers. Ok, at first I thought the "powers" meant that she was abnormal or something, but lo and behold, she's psychic! And a pretty good psychic at that. I mean, she managed to make "hula" the birthdays and thingies of her fellow housemates. Good for her. But being a sly snake that Kuya is, they showed a video clip of Kuya giving Brenda a "secret mission" to pretend to be psychic! And the prize? She's exempted from the next nominations. Like, hello? she shouldn't have accepted it, but still, she did! How spineless can you get? and how would you expect people trust her in the real world given that stunt she pulled? But it was good that she managed to change and she saw the error in her ways. I'm ok with Brenda and all but still..Damn that invisible, omnipotent Kuya!
On Gulong ng Palad
It was nice to see that the show followed the pattern of the "happy ending" - "villain got just desserts" - "everyone is happy". No, scratch "pattern" and replace it with cliche! I mean, the ending was just so "obvious" that it doesn't seem to make an impression. But whoa! Mimi had amputation done and ahe looked pitiful in that wheelchair..being tormented. Hey, someone in this world had to pity her.
These kinds of teleseryes follow that one-sided, monotonous effect, where the bida always has the loveteam, there is a kontrabida/bido that's in love with either one of the bidas and then, the villain goes to jail (or dies), and the bidas get married. I think their downfall lies in their complex storyline. I mean, hello? look at Tristan now and you'll wonder how the hell he got there. In addition to that, these teleseryes have so much characters that just fade in the limelight, without any development whatsoever. It's either they die, or they don't get the attention they deserve. What makes some American soap operas nice is because they don't showcase major actions everyday, and these important events are well developed in the story. Plus they don't show the soap everyday, and I guess that pulls the viewers in! If these people were smart or maybe creative enough, they would know those sorts of things!
I would've ranted about American Idol, but it's getting late. I'll revise any typo tomorrow.
I'm done.

hmmm.... ako nga din nagulat abot yung kay Brenda... i was so amazed then yun pala it was all just mission... tsk tsk... didnt read about gulong ng palad anymore.. dont watch it kasi.. hehe
I'm sure you wouldn't find gulong ng Palad interesting anyway...it's sweetness can make you diabetic, and that's not good. Thanks for commenting!
hello -blog hopping-
Arrgh pinoy talaga corny! wala pang originality. Hindi na nga ako nanonood ng mga yan eh. Yung PBB teen edition ngayon, hindi maganda yug image na pinapakita sa kabataan! ehehehe >.<
kung sa teleseryes, wala na talaga silang ibang maiisip na ideas..halos kailangan talaga nilang magkaroon ng bida at loveteam at kontrabida. wala na silang ibang maisip?
hi gio. i watched the last few episodes of gulong ng palad. though it was a typically pilipino teleserye with predictable ending, it had some values and lessons to teach like forgiveness/reconciliation, the value of family, and being responsible for the wrong decision one makes.
that's y i go for korean novelas na lang..cheesier but visually satisfying!
I feel sorry for Mimi. Tapos, the other inmates are making bully her pa. Kawawa naman.
American Idol... Go Yamin! La lang. Haha.
By the way, I saw your site from Justine's. Cool.
nakakasuka yung ganung klaseng ending. paulit-ulit na lang.
parang si manny pacquiao. halos lahat ng products siya ang endorser. (sorry sa mga fans nya)
correct. maganda ang american soaps. woooooooot! at least iba2 ung story plots. palagi na lang love story mga soap dito. pfffft.
Padz: i agree.:).
augustana: i never really like koreanovelas, the spanish ones are nice though, like rosalinda. haha.
Jhed: it's either elliot or kat. booyah!
Giselle: diba? they can really pull you in!
ei gio! ngaun lang ako nakavisit because for the past weeks i've been completely devoid of all forms of communication known to man!! no phone, no load, no internet!! i've turned into a hermit with a new wardrobe!!
hehehe.. anyway.. i hoped that brenda would have been kicked out of the house for that stunt! i've watched the last few episodes of gulong ng palad as well and the ending sucked! i guess i was somewhat hoping for a more cruel ending...
kisha...i guess we were in the same boat..i'm also a lonely and bitter hermit dying of boredome..but at least I bought new stuff!!!!!!! hahaha
i missed your rantings...rant daw so i can relate or wallow with you. :)
