Wednesday, January 19 at 10 p.m. EST Celebrity Rehab on VH1 came to an end. Although this is not on my list of shows to watch every week there have been a few episodes throughout the season viewed and the finale seemed to reflect on the rest of the season, boring. It just seemed uneventful.
That sounds terrible. It's rehab, but it's also reality tv. Remember when Tila Tequila was supposed to be on that show? Maybe if she was on that show it would have been more interesting; it would also have been more annoying and seem more like a joke than a real show, but still.
It's unclear whether the purpose of this show is to really help these celebrities. Dr. Drew Pinkski is an amazing man who really does want to help and who does try, but are the viewers of VH1 really watching this show to see how to go through the recovery process? Or are the viewers more interested in the drama of reality tv that includes celebrities? Is it really a process that should be recorded for VH1? I guess that's controversial.
Here are six of the cast members |
Few of them agreed to go onto sober living afterwards - which basically defeats the purpose of even being in rehab, right?
If Dr. Drew wants to be taken seriously, because he is a great man, he should get a show on TLC or another channel instead of VH1 - (he has also appeared on Chelsea Lately as one of the comedians). So please, VH1, do not let their be another season of this show - I'd rather see Celebrity Fit Club make a comeback.
Celebrity Rehab Reunion show next week; maybe it would be worth watching how the stars have been since.
P.S. Jersey Shore is on tonight on MTV at 10 p.m. so expect a blog post in the morning along with a video.
