No, Donny. These Men Are Cowards
What with living in this age of reality television, tabloid insatiability and fame addiction no matter what one is famous for, I often forget that writer Paddy Chayefsky penned "Network" as a satire. I'm pretty sure
Isaiah Washington has forgotten.
"'At the beginning of the things, I suggested a reality show called 'Living With the Lohans: Over or Starting Over?' he said. 'When Dina served me the divorce papers, I said instead of going trial, why don’t we work this out in an amicable way—just show everyone we could end it the right way, and/or start over the right way. There would have been cameras on us the whole time. It would have guided us in the right way.'
Mr. Lohan thinks such a show would not only be a smash hit—now more than ever—he thinks it might be the only way to restore what once was."
And now I'm drifting back to my college courses on existentialism and veering into the territory wherein I believe everything is a black comedy and nothing is real. And that takes me away from Nietzsche and into that troublesome area called nihilism. But I'll drop these thoughts because, as the Dude Lebowski says, "Oh that must be exhausting."
