I hope everyone had a great, long Labor Day weekend! I spent mine watching my beloved Cubbies go down in defeat, and then came home and tortured, err, consoled myself with Mission: Man Band. This week the guys of Sureshot are shooting their first music video, and it's actually really good. It's nice to see them making such great strides towards a legitimate revival of their careers. Nah, I'm just playing, it's absolute crap, and I love watching them crash and burn. Come revel in their failure, dear friends!
Yes, that's a man wearing a unicorn costume holding a bottle of booze. No, that's not the worst part of their video.
We pick up in the meeting the guys called with their manager, Katie McNeil. As you may recall, the guys are mad at KM for making them perform at the Magic game, listen to the commentary on the radio the next day, and watch a playback video of the performance. So, as we were teased at the end of last week, they now want to fire her. What a dirty whore, how dare she help you get your name out and then try to make you learn from the experience? I totally understand, guys. I have a mommy.
Rich tells us that the point of the meeting is for them to figure out if KM is really in this process for the long run. I could answer that for you buddy: the second her contractual obligation with VH1 is completed, that woman is running away faster than one of Michael Vick's pit bulls. Too soon? How bout faster than Britney from Child Services? Better?
Chris tells KM that they wanted to fire her, wanted, as in the past tense. He lords that over her a little bit, clearly enjoying having her nervously hang on his every word. Chris tells her that they want someone that has their best interest at heart. Rich tells her that his every downfall has been due to bad management, and he has trust issues. I'm assuming he means professional downfall because while you can blame Lou Pearlman for almost anything, I think the line has to be drawn at "gave me cancer." Jeff tells her he lost trust in her when she made them listen to the radio commentary. He says that KM allowed them to do two things in a row that hurt them (the Magic show and the radio commentary), and what's worse is that they told her they were going to get hurt from the show, she knew how hurt they were from the show, and then she hurt them again with the radio commentary. Jeff then put his thumb back in his mouth and clutches Blankie tighter.
KM tells the guys that if she could do it over again, she would do it totally different. Chris interrupts, literally pointing fingers now and waving his arms around wildly, and accuses KM of making a lot of excuses, and KM protests that she's just trying to explain the position she was in, and how she made a wrong decision. Chris then accuses her of changing her story, how before she said it was important for the guys to see what they did wrong by watching the video, and now it's all like, "I messed up." KM admits that doing the show wasn't the right decision, but she stands by having the guys watch the video.
Chris, still swinging his arms like a rabid baboon, shouts "I don't agree! I've been on tour for 50,000 years and I don't agree with that!" 50,000 years, huh? I'm sure the Neanderthals were turning out in droves to see "It's Gonna Be Me" performed live, waiving around lit clubs to "God Must Have Spent a Little More Time on You." Ass.
Those hairy bastards fucking LOVED us!
Chris continues his verbal abuse by telling KM that her refusal to admit she screwed up and her insistence on watching the video "sucked" and makes him hate her. KM, somehow unfazed by the tragedy of having such a noble person as Chris Kirkpatrick not like her, dryly repeats that if she had a do-over, she would do things differently, and she apologizes for that.

How funny is it that Chris is doing this reality crap, while Justin is doing HBO concerts on Labor Day at Madison Square Garden? And notice that he NEVER brings on any of his old bandmates like say..Beyonce does. Chris better manage his money wisely is all I'm saying...

I'm pretty much the biggest loser for checking this, but the video is on VH1 VSpot. And you're right. It's the worst thing on the planet.
I can't watch the show, but it's too painful, but I LOVE your recaps. They are hilarious....and incredibly sad at the same time.

Never seen the show, but I'm addicted to TVGasm recaps!
I actually kinda liked the video ... it was stupid, but it was supposed to be stupid, so therefore it succeeded.

"He moved as if he was going to grab me, and I took off screaming, literally knocking over several people as I ran for the door. It was every Brownie for herself, sisterhood be damned. Let's just say I didn't earn that "Loyalty" badge that year."

LoLo, that's just one example of a recap that had me howling with laughter. Thank you! I don't watch this show but thanks to your excellent recaps there is no need to.
