A Word About the Hiltons…

May 13th, 2008 by Mike2GuysTalking

I have to ask everyone that reads here at the TelevisionReviewBlogs.Com - What is the attraction at all of Paris and her sister Nikki?  Is it the cash?  Is it the proverbial shock appeal of a relatively timid sex tape showcasing?  Are you REALLY interested in “what she’ll say next?”  Is Nikki a celebrity or just the sister of a celebrity? Well, we’ll apparently know more soon as there is a series of 6 mini-webisodes showcasing - you guessed it - Nikki and Paris Hilton.

Is this a testing of the proverbial television waters?  Can we expect potentially HD-ParisVision in the next 6 months?  Again, I have no idea what the viable interest is - can you help me understand it?  Read on below to be informed via a post I got from Miranda at TVGuide recently.  It includes a number of items that are showcased via TVGuide as well as a variety of websites that give you “some of the best dish” - most of which I have no interest in, but hey - it’s all about perspective here at The TelevisionReviewBlogs.  Be sure to chime in with what YOU think!  -Mike2GuysTalking
