I’ve tried watching this show in the past, but everything (and everyone) about it can die a very horrible death. Just another pointless show from my homestate. Great job, New Jersey!
Also, I’ve lived in the area that the Jersey Devil (allegedly) haunts my whole life, and I have yet to see any evidence of its existence. Too many people have tried to find it and they’ve all failed.
“Kinda hoping for more of Allison digging into terrible scripted reality TV show episodes.”
Omg yes!! That is such a great idea! I haven’t seen a lot of online reviewers tackling realty TV, so it would be original, and this would be the perfect month for it too because like 94% of realty shows are stupid people walking through dark houses thinking they are talking to ghosts. 😛
Even the title card/thumbnail was utterly confusing. I had no idea what to make of what I was seeing, haha.
Makes sense in context, I suppose… though really, it’s just as ridiculous knowing what that statue is. I’ve never heard of this Jersy Devil thing before, but the vision of trying to make a “sexy” incarnation with boobs and the like is about the most ridiculously stupid thing imaginable. It really does look like something that a terrible rule 63 furry artist would draw. That and it’s just really bad sculpting in general.
I used to watch Cake Boss with my family. It was a show we enjoyed. I think some family members still watch it. I just don’t watch much television anymore. I always did find the sisters annoying. They don’t do anything except to come in and disrupt the cake-making process while talking with these annoying, nasally voices. Is that a Jersey thing?
This episode, however, really takes the cake (pun totally intended). I’m a bit of a skeptic, so I’ve never totally believed those ghost shows. And I just had to roll my eyes and sigh when they said it was the ghost of the dad saying he was proud of them. Of course it would be. It’s like those psychic mediums who say they’re talking to someone’s family member and that said member always says their proud of the living person and whatever their doing. It’s so fake. And it’s taking advantage of people’s emotions. I find it sickening, actually. I think it’s despicable that Cake Boss supports this. Though, let’s be fair. It was probably something that TLC forced on them to promote another show.

This Manic Episode has the feel of Ralph Sepe’s videos on episodes of Mystery Diners, ghost hunting, and bigfoot shows all rolled into one.

What?! O.O What did I just watch?
Every time I see a clip of a reality show, I’m reminded why I avoid reality TV like the Plague.
Reality TV is soooooo stuuuupid.
