I've been thinking a lot about fashion lately.
For those who know me, this will trigger gales of laughter. I'm not a fashionable guy. But it is interesting to me, so I've been trying to learn a bit more about it. Gradually, ever-so-gradually, I think I'm learning a bit about what is and isn't chic. In about ten years I may have a clue.
On that subject, one way I've discovered to figure out that a TV show isn't worth watching is looking for the word fashion in reviews. Trust me. Unless the show is about fashion, people shouldn't focus in on what the characters are wearing. If they are, then they aren't paying any attention to the story. Which means the story isn't very interesting. Even good reviews, even raves--if all the reviewer wants to talk about is what everyone was wearing, the show sucks.
Same thing applies to music. I've seen documentaries about bands where the entire thing was about the band's fashion sense. Not word one about the music. And none of those bands had produced anything worthy listening to. They were so focused on their look they neglected their sound.
Oh, well. I don't really have a point to wrap up with. I guess that's why it's randomocity.
