Paradise Hotel 2: The Cuddle Controversy

thumbnail icon: Paradise Hotel 2: The Cuddle Controversy

I'm pretty sure I'm the only person who watches Paradise Hotel 2, but it's not my fault that you guys are bad at priorities and watching great stuff. Just kidding. Paradise Hotel 2 is the worst show. You know how when you watch Flavor of Love or something and you think "I can't believe these people are on TV"? Imagine the people who would love to be on that show but weren't attractive or interesting enough (but were retarded enough). But the fact of the matter is that I loved Paradise Hotel 1, so when I found out there was going to be a third tier cable-only sequel, I was like "sign me up!"

The main reason I like the show is because it is so confusing and complicated. They change the rules every week. After watching all of season one, and now all of season two thus far, here is what I can tell you about what the show is about:

-You have to stay in a hotel and drink alcohol, but sometimes you have to leave the hotel. Maybe.

That's about all I know. But I also know that last night things got pretty tense when Ryan made it clear to Stephanie that he did NOT like cuddling. Sorry about the tiny quality, I'm new here.

No cuddling, you guys. It's not like fucking someone drunkenly on national television and then talking a bunch of crude shit about them behind their backs for your fellow mongoloids at mongoloid brunch. It's, like, special.

Paradise Hotel is the greatest reality show on television, and the sequel lives up to the original. It's proof that casting makes reality TV. Seriously - HOW MUCH WORK WENT INTO FINDING PEOPLE THAT VAPID? It's also Fox-sanctioned date rate. At some point I want to edit together some highlights so people will understand what I've been raving about since the original aired four years ago. (Note: Hoteler "Nate" from the second series apparently killed himself shortly after filming. I'm sure it's not related, but I like to imagine it is).

I stand corrected.

Ryan, or Surfer Hitler as he is known in these parts, will surely win the game. What that game is, no one will ever know.

I know at least 3 other people, not including myself, who watch this show. It's outstanding! The only thing on television that can match the character depth of Friday Night Lights.
